FINDING VIVIAN MAIER

US 2013 (12) 84 minutes Directed by John Maloof & Charlie Siskel

Ipswich Film Theatre - 8 February 2016 - 7.30pm Intriguing documentary as Maloof is commentator, our guide and detective. Over many years of ambling round auction rooms he comes upon a collection of really good photographs. He becomes obsessed and buys more. Who was Vivian Maier who photographed 1950s/60s New York and Chicago? The presentation begins with the short film The Ringer. AUDIENCE COMMENTS: Brilliant - but sad to think that it couldn’t happen in the digital age; Best documentary I have seen in years; The negatives outweighed the negatives; Would have liked more of her photos and less of the somewhat empty and repetitive talking heads; Withdraw life savings at bank and then off to Jessops tomorrow, followed by the newsagents. Search nanny job ads. Book storage container.
