"A captivating and moving portrait of a singular man and a passing era" -New York Times

“We all get dressed for Bill,” says Anna Wintour, Editor-in-Chief of Vogue.

Winner of the Audience Award for Best Documentary at the Sydney, Melbourne, and Canberra film festivals, and the opening night film for the New Directors/New Films 2010, Bill Cunningham New York follows Schwinn-riding, blue workman’s jacket-wearing, octogenarian fashion photographer Bill Cunningham on his constant search for beauty, exceptionality, and new trends on one of the biggest catwalks of them all: the streets of New York City. His two weekly New York Times Style section columns, “On the Street” and “Evening Hours” reliably document the famous, the infamous, and the anonymous, all with the same flair and respect.

In this touching, humorous documentary, the cameras are turned to reveal a very rare sort of person whose contribution as a chronicler of society is incalculable, and who asks for nothing in return for his work but the continued opportunity to seek beauty in the world.
