CGiii Comment

Goldin's monotonal narration is a sure-fire cure for insomnia.

This is her diary - essentially, it's the story of a fag hag...a drug-addicted photographer who wasn't particularly handy with a camera.

A group of never-would-bees...this is not Warhol's Factory - this is a group of friends ravaged and ripped apart my HIV/AIDS...it is a moving testimony of the times.

Such a shame is was created by an artist with dubious talent. Badly filmed, badly photographed, badly edited...it could have been so much more than it is.

Still, worth watching for the music alone...Eartha Kitt grrr.


Watch...here

 

The(ir) Blurb...

Considered the most intimate portrait of life & work of American photographer Nan Goldin. Collaborating with British documentary director Edmund Coulthard, the film also paints a sharp portrait of a generation, reconstructing disquiet from the extraordinary biographical account of the photographer.
