Some of the best photographers are filmmakers whose images just happen to move
« on: August 15, 2015, 11:18:42 AM »
I saw this trailer at IFC yesterday. Yeah, I'm gonna try to see as many of these as I can.

A touring retrospective of  director Wim Wenders’ work, which includes 12 of his films (11 of which are 4K and 2K restorations) will premiere at the IFC Center in New York starting August 28. The 15 city tour will  also include stops in Los Angeles, Boston, Chicago, Washington DC, San Francisco, Seattle, and Philadelphia.

Beautiful. And Canned Heat's Going Up the Country suits the moving pictures perfectly.

Wenders is a still photographer, too. I knew his wife is but didn't know that he is. Here's an interview of him talking about photography. Has interesting things to say about film v. digital, the experience and mindset of shooting either. And love his last lines about the photos you didn't shoot.
