![]() ![]() ![]() If I'm telling you something you know already, then apologies - but this is a really enjoyable film. If you haven't seen it and you'd like to see a charming, self-effacing and slightly eccentric photographer spend 90mins answering questions on the what, why and how of his career, it is fantastic, IMO. ![]() After much sodding around, I've just tried it in my Apple Mac CD/DVD player and, although I needed to change the zone, that was a doddle. Once home, I put it into my player only to find that my player didn't recognise the zone, even though it was supposedly able to be played in the UK. For DK2R, British director Tomas Leach revisits his film 'In No Great Hurry' on Saul Leiter. I'd recently seen the retrospective on his work, so I bought the DVD. It's split into 13 "chapters" and Saul provides his insight and opinions into the various topics. Saul Leiter was a pioneer in the use of colour within photography throughout the Fifties and Sixties who continues to work from his New York studio. I'm not a fan of much of the modern art contained in there but there are a few interesting things, the turbine hall (currently undergoing some work and inaccessible) is a great space and the gallery does have a half-decent photography section in its bookshop.Īnyway, I was thumbing through the books when I stumbled across a DVD of "In No Great Hurry" a documentary about Saul Leiter, filmed whilst he was still alive. During a recent amble along London's South Bank, I popped into Tate Modern. ![]()
