Bill Cunningham New York: movie review

Bill Cunningham is the biggest inspiration. Well, at least I was inspired. I don't see how you can't be after watching this film.
This man is so real, it's amazing. He lives a simple life and does what he loves. He's living the dream.
He's not influenced by anyone and doesn't care what anyone says. He does what he wants. And I think that's almost impossible for most people in fashion. Like he talks about in the movie, there aren't a lot of 'rarities' anymore. Everything has been done. Finding that odd ball on the street who is dressed up is something so bold and daring is like finding a pot of gold. People who have their own style and don't follow trends are hard to come by. But it's so refreshing when you do find them, isn't it? They're real artists and have a wonderful spirit about them. They're not afraid to show their true colours, literally. This is what Bill captures in his photographs.

You'll love Bill Cunningham. I promise.
Go see it.


Thanks, Elizabeth.
