If you're looking for straight nooky you may well find yourself a tad cheated, but as an insight into her re find out more...

An observational documentary focussing on the editor-in-chief of American Vogue Magazine, Anna Wintour, and following the putting together of the magazine's largest ever edition: the September 2007 issue.
