Instead of narrative tension we are fed endless scenes of his charmed life: here?s Ralph throwing the first pitch at a Yankees baseball game, or emotionally embracing Oprah, or dressing up like the Marlboro Man in a dusty cowboy hat and tight blue jeans to stand round the fire at his Montauk ranch. Lacy only hints at the hollowness behind Lauren?s Jay Gatsby-esque persona. ?It?s performance art in which you participate. It?s a stage set in which the clothes are on sale,? says fashion writer Judith Thurman, talking about Ralph Lauren shops, though she could be dissecting the man himself.
