Sunday May 9 2010 at 9 pm ET
85 minutes
Directed by Barbara Leibovitz
The woman behind the iconic images of Hollywood luminaries, pop culture glitterati and political power hitters is the subject of this fascinating documentary that charts her life and career through the various phases that shaped it. From childhood, the tumultuous 60s and touring with the Rolling Stones to Leibovitzs work at Rolling Stone and Vanity Fair magazines and later, motherhood, the film reveals the evolution and aspirations of one of today's most influential visual artists
i think the worst thing that can happen to a photographer happened to her... she became more important than her images. I suspect this is why after a certain point Cartier-Bresson abandoned photography... he could not escape his cult.
I'm not saying she isn't talented, because she is, but the best photographers wear their face in their work.
