Into the world of creative madness
23 April 2014
Warning: Spoilers
This is a very good movie. It starts by the accidental discovery of the negatives of what turns out to be a very talented photographer. You slowly learn more. There is a darker side, and you soon find yourself immersed a bizarre world--a journey of following Vivian Maier's discarded gems, photographic and other, as well as emotional debris and dark alleys that echo of the unthinkable. A woman so capable at looking at us and revealing truth, yet carefully masks herself behind which must certainly be the workings of the mental ill. The movie does a unique job at letting your experience how greatness and mental illness can coexist; in fact, perhaps her greatness is a result of the mental illness.
