Designer Christian Siriano has put some pretty big names on the best dressed list. But its his fashions for women of all shapes, shades and sizes that give him a unique style.

Pauley with david pogue well do a double take over dead actors playing new roles. Elizabeth palmer shows us how one man directs movies through his eyes.

First, here are the headlines for sunday morning, the 26th of february, 2017. 28 people were hurt last night, some pickup truck plowed into a crowd watching a Mardi Gras Parade in new orleans. One person is in custody. Police suspect he was intoxicated. Influential republican congressman darrl issa of california is calling for an invest bakes into russias activities in the 2016 president ial election. Issa also says it would be improper for attorney general Jeff Sessions to who was prominent member of the Trump Campaign to lead the investigation. Former labor secretary tom perez is the new chairman of the Democratic National committee and the first latino to hold the job. His election is seen for a win of the moderate wing of the party. In brazil, carnival celebrations are in full swing, thousands turned owl to celebrate. They will party until Ash Wednesday this week. Lately. Snow along with mercury will fall today from minnesota to maine. More rain will fall on the pacific northwest. The red carpet leading into the oscars in los angeles could get wet, too. For the week ahead, look like a wintery mix from east to west. Gave them a receipt, and said, awardwitell a story. Rs, you are given a receipt with six items. The receipt becomes the clue. We wanted to embrace the randomness, instead of fight against it. Im very curious to see what they are making. Mine is gonna be the best, though. I assume ours will be weirder than theirs. This is a competition, right . Yeah, we win a walmart, right . Pauley for hollywood movie makers giving credit where credit is due is more than just a professional courtesy its an industry all its own. Our cover story is reported by lee cowan. As main title sequence go the naked gun may not have been the most artistic in movie making history, but it did its job remarkably well. It teed up the absurdity of the absurdly funny film that followed. Bingo. But like all title sequences it fulfilled another need. Distracting us from what we are really watching, a long list of names. Each name for the contractually agreed upon time, the Industry Standard by the way is about two second. But also has to do it in a creative way, whether its with the Cafeteria Food in napoleon dynamite or the wind blown fonts in twister. The lights go down. You see this amazing thing that will evoke an emotional response. Its like 12 frames off. Kyle cooper has spent a lifetime evoking that response. He lit the fusen i mission impossible. And he took us underhe t microscope in the island of dr. Moreau. I like eyes and veins and arteries and insects and i like to observe things that exist. He sees putting names on the screen, but really the design. The art he says comes in how it all blend together with the muse you can. Telegraph the look and feel of a film without giving too much or too little away. Copsier perhaps best known for his title designs for se7en where he took the audience into the mad of meticulous mind of a serial killer. I was at the premiere for se7en and when we dropped that thing on the people, they went nuts. For se7en, there was this reaction. It did in the best way what a title sequence is supposed to do. I consider these things to be short films. Its a movie within a movie. I think so. In the early days main titles were just that, titles with fancy fonts, like the fairy tale look of the adventures of robin hood. Kong. Strong music, you knew that you were going to see something larger than life. Lola landekic is managing editor of a website called art of the title. An exhaustive reverse for anyone wanting to take a deep title sequence dive. Its a rob it hole. Is it . Yeah. You can spend your life studying this. Good title sequence she says is all about mood. Star wars gave us that once upon a time feel. While bond was pure intrigue. That iconic gun barrel was a design of Maurice Binder back in 1962, and it has stood the test of time. Goldfinger ] designer Robert Brownjohn took to projecting titles on to models, and that, too, stuck. You have the guns and the girls. Thats the trifecta. But if theres a patron saint of title designs most agree it would be saul bass. If youre a fan of Otto Preminger or Alfred Hitchcock you know his work. Very abstract. It depend how you look at it. I would look at Something Like psycho and you could argue that its ab tract or literal. Because psycho is sliced up. What about vertigo. The first few second of the film you feel dizzy. And you dont know whats happening. Which of course was precisely the point. These things are working on you in this way that is totally subconscious. Ed good ones work and you dont even know that they work. Exactly. Sopranos start an arms race in tv main title design. Gone are the days of the brady bunch. Now we have more nuanced look of mad men. Or the beautifully eerie look of west world. Its great when you get that texture of the muscles coming through. Patrick claire has won two emmys for best main title desi design. First for true detective u. And again last year for the man in the high castle a series that ponders the question, what if the allies had lost world war ii. What ingredient, if there is one, makes a really good title sequence. Its got to be simple. Yeah . They all have ha very simple idea at the heart of them. Whether its brutality of co dexter or dead body being prepared for burial. Turn them into something that really speaks to the journey of the characters. Its cool because the Production Design is going to change over time. Finding that simplicity, however, can be a superhuman challenge, especially in the sometimes complex universe of super heroes. This is my favorite part. Erin has designed title sequences for four marvel films including captain america, the winter soldier. Theres a lot going on there. And the beautifully intricate dr. Strange. But in both these case her designs came at the end of the film, not at the beginning. The movie doesnt end op on the final frame. It ends really after the director is kind of finished having his way with you, so to speak. Its like the sorbet at the end of the meal. Cant skip the sorbet. Titles like these at the end of the film may have toughest job of all, keeping you in your seat. What do you want them to take away from your title sequence . I want them to wait until the very end of the control and look for our name. As an added incentive to stick around, marvel has taken a page from ferris ball hers day off. Youre still here . The the end of those credits we got this. Its over. If you stick around long enough through the end of marvels deadpool. Youre still here . Youll get a great spoof. Its over. Its over. Go home. Reminder that its worth those few extra minutes of your attention. Go. Whether at the beginning offer the end. Go. To give credit to those giving credit, too. Pauley next, the birth of color. So tangles dont stand a chance. Because strong is beautiful. Pauley and now a page from our sunday morning almanac, february 26, 1909, 108 years ago today a. Colorful day in movie history. For it was on that day at the Palace Theater in london that natural color movies were shown to a public audience for the very first time. Woman drain handkerchief was one of the short films on the program that day shot in a pros called kinemacolor. Invented by George Albert smith, kinemacolor used a rotating filter of red and green gels in its cameras and projectors to create its color images. Somber some and expensive, kinemacolors twocolor system couldnt reproduce blue or true white. And its images suffered from green and red fringing around the edges. Kinemacolor was eventually overtaken by technicolor, which had developed a threecolor system that produce add more true to life picture. Though not the first films shot in technicolor, 1939s the wizard of oz and gone with the wind put technicolor on the map for good. As god is my witness, ill never be hungry again. Pauley and so on this oscar sunday we pause a moment to salute those poly chromatic pioneers of times gone by. Ahead, fashions for every body. I dont care what size they are. I dont care where theyre from. I just want them to feel good in what we are creating for them. Look at you, saving money on your Medicare Part d prescriptions. At walgreens we make it easy for you to seize the day by helping you get more out of life and Medicare Part d. Now with zerodollar copays on select plans. And rewards points on all prescriptions, walgreens has you covered. Walgreens. At the corner of happy and healthy. With ingredients like roasted hazelnuts and cocoa, the delicious taste of nutella takes pancakes to a whole new level. Nutella spread the happy which falls down and spoilsn a lothe experience. New air wick pure has 9x more fragrance and less water. The designer serena at chew has been watching at work. When it comes to fashion, one name thats trending is Christian Siriano. And with the award season in full swing, the 1yearold is starting to feel the pressure. The oscars, thats it, right . Is there anything bigger . It is a big moment, because so many people watch and so many people judge. Theres a lot of red carpet commentary. Some unwanted. But judging from this years stars wore his designs and the emmys where he dressed nine, his clothes are wearing well. So thats a record then . I dont know even know if it was a record but it was quite a lot. Sirianos client list is impressive. This was kathy baits who was nominated. Includes a galaxy of stars some of whom may shine at tonights Academy Awards. Are you willing to share or give us any hint as to who might be wearing one of your dress. I cant. I cant. Because you dont i dont know. But he does know fashion. Siriano recently revealed his fall line during new york fashion week. The theme was the desert and back stage he was surprisingly cool. I try to be a little zen, i really captain stress myself out so much. But that five minutes before were getting dressed and thats what is scary. Fashion is a high stakes business, but siriano is willing to take risks. Take a look at the runway models, they are all shapes, shades and sizes. And its all by design. I dont care what size they are. I dont care where theyre from. I just want them to feel good in what were creating for them. That attitude brought siriano to fashion in the first place. Born in annapolis, maryland, he was 13 when he started designing clothes. Inspired by his size 16 mother and size 2 sister. I had every color, ethnicity, every size, every person around me. So it just wasnt different. I think that the what im trying to get people used to, that it should just be the norm. It doesnt have to be like a top glick his creativity was encouraged by his parents and in 2004 he moved to london where he interned with celebrate designer alexander mcgreen. But when he returned home he struggled to find work. This is project runway. Until he auditioned for the fashion competition show project runway. Im kind of fierce and kind of celebrity in my own head. I definitely looks like a little bit of cartoon character. Thats okay. His highly theatrical approach to clothing earned him attention. He became the shows youngest winner. You are the winner of project runway. An experience he looks back on with mixed emotions. Thats like an actress who cant stand to be known for a film that she did her whole career, you know . That can be frustrating. I think now i would i probably wouldnt do it. But you wouldnt be where you are. I definitely would be in a different place than i am now. Siriano has had his hits. And what some think this dress worn a byssctre 2010 golden globes. We got a lot of hate on that dress. People hated it. Dont put a big girl in a big dress. Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome it meant the world to him last summer when Michelle Obama appeared at the Democratic National convention clad in a classic blue dress he designed. Im okay with saying that that definitely changed my career. Emboldened by success, siriano willingly broke the high fashion mold by dressing snl actress leslie jones for her 2016 ghost busters premiere after her tweet revealed that hoar designers declined. And he capped the year off with his marriage to singersongwriter brad walsh. So this is this is where we on the red carpet, the runway, or anywhere, Christian Siriano has made his mark as a designer for every body, like it or not. When people say, how could do you that, of course youre going to take it personally. Do you. Then you dont do it again. My only thing if i waited around for certain people to come around and support id still be waiting. Pauley next, grace kelly. Dont try to be a hero, you dont have to be a hero, not for me. Pauley from star to princess. The wincer salie field. Pauley later twotime oscar wine salie field. You cant believe a woman is crazy to live alone in one room by herself. Listen to me. Why are you holding me . I said youre holding me. Sunday morning goes to the oscars. Here again is jane pauley. Pauley grace kelly won an oscar for her starring role in the 1954 movie the country girl. Just the warm for the fare she stepped in to just a few years later. Rita braver has sent us this postcard from monaco. The principal of monaco sparkles on the shore of the mediterranean. Its a place of opulent apartments, a world class casino and an incometax free policy that has drawn one of the worlds wealthiest populations. Yet this tiny european citystate, less than one square mile, boasts not only a palace that dates back to the 12th century. But also a tale of love at first sight. Theres a famous picture of my i think its famous, i dont know, you can tell that. Theres a picture of my parentse view of monaco in the background. So this is like the kind of view that could make you fall in love. Yeah. Just looking out here . Of course, the parents of Prince Albert, who now rules over this country, where prince rainier and the americanborn grace kelly. Tiny monaco took on hollywood overtones when film queen grace kelly was greeted as she arrived over her marriage to prince rainier. It was the stuff of fairy tales. The dashing 32yearold prince and the beautiful 26yearold commoner. But she was already hollywood royalty. The star of celebrated films like the Alfred Hitchcock thrill sneer rear window wisconsin jimmy stuart. If your opinion your manner i dont think i care to hear it. Come on, simmer down. You want a leg or a breast. To catch a thief with cary grant. You realize this is an imitation. Women, im not. And the country girl with her oscar winning turn as the wife of an alcoholic played by bing crosby. Whos the guy you want to get back to . Frank, im warning you. Im going to hit you with the first thing i pick up. Now get dressed have you chosen a name for your baby . No, we havent decided on any name definitely yet. She gave up her career to raise their children. Albert, and his sisters, princees caroline and stephanie. Family photos affectionally preserved in her personal albums. What was she like as a mom . She was a very loving and and she not only made sure that she gave us enough attention and enough love and wead everything we needed. But she was so caring toward other people, too. And she never forgot her old film world friends. Did she bring people into the palace that you remember specifically . Of course, Alfred Hitchcock, gregory peck, kirk douglas, frank sinatra. How can you forget him . Is it true that cary grant used to love to tell dirty jokes when he came here . He and my father used to have a field day telling jokes. The prince gave us a rare personal tour of the palace. So this is the north gallery facing the harbor area. Look at that beautiful view. It was a different floor at the time. This is where you roller skated. Yeah. He showed us where where his family played. This pool was designed by your mother . I think both my parents sat around the table and wanted . Yeah. You remember splashing around in this . Oh, yeah. Inside there is history and memories. So this is the salle de garde, the guards room, because it must have been in the very old days where the officers or the guards met. Now used as a family room. His mom didnt like the way it used to be decorated. So she asked my father if she could redo this room and he said, yes. And so weve had these blue colored walls since then. And in the formal reception room, prince grace still reins. That is suc
