Becoming Halston | Ewan McGregor's Transformation | Netflix
/ netflix
His name built an empire. His style defined an era. American fashion designer Halston skyrockets to fame before his life starts to spin out of control.
I wish Netflix put more money to bring vintage glamour-themed productions to life. I really liked Halston, hope it becomes trendy this type of shows.
No, let it stay a sub culture so that it doesn't die whilst being mainstream
The sets are to die for!
It’s about money for them. If this has high numbers then they will continue.
Ewan McGregor’s performance was an award winning Extravaganza and it was spot-on!
Nice comment, where are you playing from?
Yes! It was perfect, and so enjoyable to watch (even through the sad scenes).
I totally agree and he realised the actual halston, his voice , his gesture and the way he made fashion. Very convincing
Yes he did a great job👍
Hello there.
He was so good in this. I'm really impressed he had the guts to take this role. It's a great part to show his versatility. This role really changed how I view him in terms of acting abilities.
Is this movie streaming,I would love to watch it.
@@lisaellis2593 Yeah it's a miniseries on Netflix. 5 episodes of 1 hour or so. It's called Halston.
Thanktou, for the info.
Ewan needs to win an award for his performance! Outstanding!!
I am already half way through this series and it's brilliant! Ewan and the actress who plays Liza are captivating to watch x
I saw it last night. Loved it
Just finished this show. I was utterly gobsmacked by McGregor's performance. Many thanks to everyone involved in its production. What an extraordinary series!
When I was young in the early 80’s, I had just started exploring being gay, what it meant to me, and how it would shape who I became. My parents found out, and gave me 30 minutes to pack and get out. I landed a job at a high end restaurant. I worked my way up, and became lead on the floor. I started meeting all of the celebrities of the time who when they traveled to where I lived, usually came through the door for lunch or dinner. I met Liza, Andy, Divine, and many others. I always hoped I would meet Halston. Unfortunately, he never came in. I admired what he created and was attracted to his simple, elegant taste. It was a fun time, but I eventually met the man of my dreams, 31 years later, we’re still together. I feel lucky, but I look back on that time and smile.
so cool that u didnt let getting kicked out stop u
Love this
What an amazing story! Thanks for sharing 💗
BADASS that your parents kicked you out and you still THRIVED and forged your own life.
Congratulations! Incredible
Good for you!❤ what a great life you got yourself after such a difficult beginning. Sounds fabulous xxx
That Kenobi beard dude, Ewan looking so good for his age! Such a great actor as well!
Ewan was PHENOMENAL!!!!! And so was the entire cast, watched the entire series in a day and rewatched it all over the very next day!!!
I’ve inhaled the mini series twice and can’t stop obsessing about it - what an masterpiece! Ewan deserves an Oscar ❤️
Absolutely loved this show! One of my favourites of 2021. Cocteau Twins on the soundtrack was the icing on the cake!
Yes, to have the Cocteau Twins as the final song was a great touch.
I also agree
McGregor lets his cigarette do all the acting here. It deserves an Oscar.
Actually, he deserves a Emmy. But I get what ur saying🥰
@@dawnlee866 Soon, Netflix prods will be Oscar contenders, its a matter of time.
@@MikelGCinema Uh, no, Dawn says Emmy because it's a TV show and not a movie. TV shows cannot win Oscars...
And Netflix productions have already won Oscars in the last few years. Just saying.
bloody cigarettes.
Ewan has to win an Oscar! I absolutely love everything about this movie, the casting, cinematography, directing and soundtrack! 🌼🌻💐🌸🌹
I think the best thing about the show is that a lot of people didn’t know Halston (like me) and it’s just so heartbreaking how he ended up loosing his own name but now the world truly know him, It really made justice. ❤️
Ewen is such an wonderful actor. I have watched him over the years and am amazed at how he totally transforms himself into the character. And the accents! There is no accent he can't master, even a potentially made up one like his Halston.
Just binged and watch all of it... Ewan gives an amazing, award-worthy performance! The rest of the cast, writing, etc. was equally great. And, the gal who played Liza... WOW! I actually thought it was her in parts! Bravo all the way around.
Gosh how he changed his voice for the role is amazing, I keep having to remind myself that halstons Ewan McGregor
Emmy performance!!! Ewan brilliant but the entire series is magnificent.
I'm on my second viewing. Halston was HUGE in the 70s and everywhere. Ewan McGregor just nails him. Really a fabulous performance.
I have always loved everything Ewan has done on screen and even his visits to Craig Ferguson were epically fun.
I have loved Ewan’s talent since the 90s and I am excited that we can still enjoy it. He is an outstanding actor.
I know that Halston's family might be upset about this series, but I think it's phenomenal and relatable. Halston is an American icon, and this series shows how fantastic and how human he was. It's nice to know more about the man who is a mystery to so many. Also all the hipsters are going to buy all his vintage clothing now and drive the prices up.
Ewan is one of my fave actors since his motorcycle challenges with his best mate! A master at acting... a wonderful man in real life as depicted on his journey with Charlie! 🇨🇦🥰
I just finished watching the whole series & it was fantastic! Ewan was incredible in this role.
Ewan McGregor deserves high recognition for his portrayal of. American Fashion Icon Halston 👏

Addictive . I’ve never been into drugs but seeing that era and his drug addiction make me stronger as a person : I can grow without drugs
Another Ryan Murphy show trashed by the critics loved by the viewers anyone who enjoyed the show should also check out the 2019 documentary Halston
Just finished watching it I absolutely loved every sec on this series. Its a must watch
I really don't care about fashion but I loved every episode. McGregor's perforance is amazing.
I must add Krysta Rodriguez as Liza Minnelli Outstanding!
I have the same lack of interest in fashion and the fashion industry so almost didn't watch the series because of that. I am so glad I watched it anyway, because it was great. And, I agree, McGregor and Rodriguez were fantastic.
Made me cry when he’s mom died he was going all the way through it
Loved his line about being a falconer when trying to pick up Ed in the bar. Also had a giggle when the 'nose' asked him to put out his cigarette 'Oh you can ask darling...but it's not gonna happen'. I though McGregor was fantastic....was gutted when i reached the end. Have watched it again twice.
That made me laugh too!
It was so funny described!
I watched the whole thing twice in 5 days.
I’ve always loved Ewan, since I saw him in trainspotting I was a huge fan of him. He’s like wine- he gets better with age.
@@curious-kat He sure does!.
Saw this serie: His acting was insane😍😍😍
Watched the Halston series twice on Netflix and was mesmerized by Ewan Mcgregor's performance as Halston. Just give the man a Oscar for Best actor already!!!
The show and ESPECIALLY McGregor's performance blew me away. A must see show!
This was incredible. I’m really glad they decided to do this, it was so delightful to watch. Art, passion, pain, just perfect.
Ewan killed this role. The man deserved an Emmy.
i loved how ewan recreated that character wonderfully 👏👏
Give this man an Oscar,golden globe, emmy and a cookie he is briliant!
WHAT A MAN, AWESOME ACTOR, SO GOOD LOOKING MAN, SO ELEGANT, HIS PERSONALITY , THIS CHARACTER WAS PERFECT FOR HIM!
Give that man all the awards. Fabulous!
Mannn I loved it!
I felt so close to Halston. Even when I wanted to punch him on his face, at the same time I want to hug him.
One of the best shows I've ever seen
The whole cast was so good!
Ewan is just FANTASTIC!! This is one more of the good characters that he has created.
Loved loved him..... Loved the show
I never thought I'd be watching Ewan McGregor playing a gay character in such a good way!!
Brilliant acting!!!
He already played another gay character in the movie I love you Philip Morris.
And Velvet Goldmine with Christian Bale
And bi in The Pillow Book
Remarkable acting by Ewan McGregor
Such an icon! I used to wear Halston perrfume. Can’t wait to watch the seried. Love Ewan McGregor! ❤️
Love, love, love, love, this show!!! It’s like my favorite thing to watch on Netflix!! McGregor did an AMAZING JOB!! The whole cast did! It’s just beautiful & amazing.
Very glad to have watched this. I had to take a two day break, during episode four, as all the drugs were making my head spin, but I am glad I returned to see it through.
You mean the drugs depicted on-screen or do you mean you were taking recreational substances while watching this limited series? Please stay away from drugs anyways as you can see how this character mcgregor plays meets his downfall at the hands of coke.
@@infinityblablabla meaning, its use was so prolific in the film, that it made me feel sick, to the point that I had to take a break from viewing.
@@rpitt5066 same!!
@@adrianvillegas2104 I wonder how their sinuses held out. I can't imagine what they replace the drugs with, bug if can't be good for them
I was afraid of getting lung cancer just by watching them smoke like all the time!!
Ewan McGregor better win an Oscar one day. This actor is extraordinary.
I love him, he’s a great artist
Halston was a very good moment! I binge watched the serie!
Just to add on to the scene where the gentleman questioned Halton"s manner of speaking & asked if he was imitating someone, I couldn't help but smile, as I have always felt that he may have adopted (knowingly or unknowingly) Truman Capote's manner of speaking & subtle affectations
Brilliant acting as Halston, Ewan McGregor . Absolutely Brilliant 👏

Halston and Bill Blass Epitomized the Uber Height of American Class and Style of the 70's and 80's. They both owned that period.
While I found some of this film disturbing I could not stop watching because of Ewan McGregor's performance. Ewan McGregor deserve's an award for his performance. I did not see Ewan I saw Halston and it had to be exhausting and disturbing at the same time for Ewan to take this role on. BRAVO EWAN MCGREGOR!!!
I'd never even heard of Halston, and looked him up after watching this and what a tribute to him he portrayed him beautifully!!!
I’m getting Philip Seymour Hoffman in Capote vibes. Spot on!
He’s phenomenal. Just like the first time I saw him in “Transpotting.” The best show I’ve seen on Netflix this year.
This is gonna be interesting to watch Halston.
The last few years they been making tv series based on Fashion Icons - Fashion Artists.
Give him an Oscar, damn it!.
This was an awesome series! Ewan McGregor transformed into Halston! Amazing, both of them!
Brilliant choice to get Ewan to play Halston 🏆
I am obsessed with this!
I just watched this, it was awesome!
One of the Greatest Ewan McGregor performance 👏
This was awesome TYNF I enjoyed Ewan is 1 of my favorite actors💗
Ewan was just brilliant
His perfomance is really really good
all the actors in this series are fabulous.
as i’m sitting here watching i almost immediately figured out who halston reminds me of. his character is an exact copy of macaulay culkin’s character michael alig in party monster. the way ewan mcgregor talks and his mannerism is the exact same
Great show! Very underrated, unfortunately.
It's an outstanding McGregor's performance! But all the cast was huge!
Ewan McGregor is terrific here, a real chameleon.
Such a great role for him! I loved every moment of the series!
Just finished the show… was amazing!
I would love a season 2 please! This “limited” series was amazing!!!!
That's it.
But the story is complete?
@@zenchilladas Yah it's over lol
Maybe a series about Tom Ford.
Ewan McGregor deserves an "Oscar" though he might call it a "Halston"
I never heard of Halston till this came out. Thought McGregor was excellent. He is a great actor & he certainly committed to the role
Really incredible. Ewan McGregor is amazing.
Ewan McGregor should most definitely win the Emmy!
That moment you explain a person we don’t know by saying they were famous
That's the incredible thing though, Halston *was* so insanely famous and now, unless you have a serious interest in fashion you don't know who he is. That man defined American fashion, without Halston there's no Tommy Hilfiger, there's no Ralph Lauren. And on top of that he was also this huge personality going to clubs, being friends with stars, being the face of his own brand. The closest thing I can think of in recent times is Karl Lagerfeld and even that doesn't quite feel right because more non-fashiony people would have been able to tell you who Halston was in the 70s and 80s than I think people would be able to say about Lagerfeld at the height of his fame.
It was an excellent series.
Obi Wan taking it from behind is savage
Ewan was just stunning!
Anyone ever feel like there is too much content and it’s keeping you from reaching your greatest potential?
When Obi Wan Kenobi became a sith lord he was known as Darth Halston
😂
lmao
im done xD ive heard it all now
" My name and my talent"--- Ewan McGregor 🔥 2021
brilliant binge watched it
Can't wait to watch this!!!
Someone can recommend series or movies like this?
Thank you
He was fabulous 💋💋💋
Amazing Netflix show which I think has the world record for tobacco smoking scenes. Why so many?
Because Halston always had a cigarette. It was part of his Look.
Because many celebrities smoked cigarettes in the 1970s and 1980s; the series is historically accurate in this respect.
Is a 10 from me, una" mini serie " bien hecha.
Even tho I was born v early 60s have to confess id never heard of Halston ! Course I knew of studio 54 , fabulous Liza M etc so was thrilled to see this and see how connected Halston was to,them and that whole,scene. Absolubtly LOVED this series, informative as well as entertaining, moving , great script and really conjures up that era, really glad I now know who Halston was! Even tho I've seen him in things before-I ,never knew what a fantastic actor Ewan M was until I saw this! He knocks it out of the park! An amazing performance. He deserves an emmy at,least! And so well directed too! Best line ' the worst news_ she was wearing Calvin Klien' !! Cracked me up! You know what I mean when you see it. I urge everyone to! Dont know what all the fuss about the smoking is_ when I grew up most people smoked- especially celebs it was the time _ get over it! And watch a great series with great performances! Fabulous and moving.
I wonder how many cigarettes Ewan had as Halston. His voice and the way Ewan moves his hands woooow just amazing acting!!!!!
Love your show!
Wow, he looks just like him.
EWAN McGREGOR'S PERFORMANCE, SIMPLY STUNNING!!!
Odd for me but I am really enjoying this series.
AMAZING 👏
