  • berlusconi missed the meeting, what a pity ahahah

  • Amazing!!!!

    His film Mr Freedom is so visceral that it makes Godard look like a pussy.

  • love  it

  • William Klein is a maveric legend in the world of beat photography. Along with his contemporaries Meyorowitz, Eggleston and Arbus he above all managed to capture the esssence of real, true, unaltered life through a lens. A giant of a man, vastly underrated as an artist an cinematographer. Of of the 20th Century's absolute Renaissance men.

  • Tive a grande honra e o privilegio de ter sido colega do Sr. Klein no juri do festival de cinema de Las Palmas, em 2006.

  • lo adoro!

  • Just discovered his films, and he's a favorite director, now. I've got to see everything. On NYC, he says "...and people lived in that world of typography gone mad..." Perfect...

    Saw "Mr. Freedom", and still can't figure what terms to describe that mind-bender. It's truer now than ever, though.

  • frank and brilliant. great video

  • awesome awesome
