This documentary centers on the life and career of the acclaimed photographer Garry Winogrand, who passed away in 1984 at the age of 56. When he died, he left thousands of rolls of undeveloped film. and in subsequent years there have been a number of posthumous showings of his work.

Known as a "street photographer" his incredibly striking photos were the heart of this movie for me. Obviously, Winogrand has an amazing eye for capturing all types of people and there just seemed to be a story behind nearly every photo that I would have loved to know what the backstory was for each one.

The film itself, directed by Sasha Waters Freyer, follows pretty much the standard doc formula with some personal history of Winogard, archival film clips, and interviews with family, friends, and contemporaries.

Overall, Winogrand's photographic genius is clearly on display here, and for those that like this type of film I can easily recommend it.

To note: The subtitles available on my DVD copy were only offered when Winogrand himself was being interviewed or lecturing. Otherwise, I had to use the closed caption option on my remote to obtain them.

Born (1928) in NYC - Garry Winogrand was a professional photographer for 25 years (1959-1984) . He specialized in both celebrity portraits and street photography.

Through stills, archival footage, and interviews - This well-produced bio-documentary takes a close-up look at the life and times of Garry Winogrand.

*Note* - In 1984 - Garry Winogrand (56 at the time) died of cancer.

I think that it's interesting to note that at the time of his death a large amount of his late work had still remained unprocessed.
