Marc by Sofia is a 2025 American documentary film directed by Sofia Coppola, about the fashion designer Marc Jacobs. The film had its world premiere out of competition of the 82nd Venice International Film Festival on September 2, 2025.[3][4]

It is Coppola's first nonfiction feature film.[5]

Reception

On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, 76% of 17 critics' reviews are positive.[6] Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned the film a score of 61 out of 100, based on 11 critics, indicating "generally favorable" reviews.[7]

Nell Minow of RogerEbert.com gave the film three out of four stars and wrote that it is "affectionate".[8]

Matthew Carey of Deadline writes that the film "starts off rather slowly but gets moving when it dials back to the early 1990s" and that, at times, it can seem "a bit clubby" and "a touch too cool for school" but ultimately is forgivable as audiences "marvel at what, over a period of decades, Marc Jacobs has made."[9]
