>> Andre Leon Talley Almost Didn't Make the Final Cut of The September Issue —Last night, The September Issue director RJ Cutler made an appearance at the SoHo Apple Store in New York, revealing that in the process of editing down the enormous amount of footage he had, Andre Leon Talley was actually entirely eliminated from a late-stage cut of the film.  He mentioned that after Anna Wintour saw a rough cut of the film, she had a long list of suggestions — perhaps one of them was getting ALT back, because as we know, he and his "famine of beauty" are definitely in the final cut.
