Bill Cunningham documentary

Bill Cunningham is the street-style photographer for the New York Times. He's a hilarious, eccentric guy who rides his Schwinn bike around New York City (rain or shine) and captures fabulous people with his camera. Well, a documentary just came out about him. Here's the trailer. I can't wait to see it!
P.S. Movie times around the country, if you'd like to see it on the big screen.

I'm so excited to see this movie! I'm a huge fan of Bill Cunningham, he's such an important figure in the fashion industry, and just such an interesting character. I have no doubt that this documentary will be AMAZING.

So excited to see this movie! I have to wait until May to see it on the big screen here in Arizona but it will be worth it :) I love how he just cruises around on his bicycle.
P.S. I used to think Anna WIntour was incredibly scary but with all these documentaries coming out I feel like we are seeing a softer side of her!
Oh this looks really cool. Am I wrong or is he the original street photographer
I love his work so it would be fantastic to hear his story.
PS: the photo of him on the bike is precious.
That looks awesome!

Saw it last night - so great and fresh. So real and insightful. What an honest man with a beautiful eye!
Looks wonderful! He is pretty amazing... wish I could steal him for a cup of coffee and a chat!

Awesome! I have never seen him before..Love the pics...
What a brave man! Cycling around NYC like that - and no helmet. Old school! Bet the doc is fabulous.
I've been DYING to see this! Mr. Cunningham is how I start my weekend; every Saturday I watch the latest On the Street while eating breakfast. Sadly, I doubt the movie will ever make it to Sweden... Guess I'll have to Netflix it when I get home this summer!
love him.
I'm so looking forward to this documentary! "Stop your antics!" had me laughing and I was sad the trailer was only two minutes long. He has much knowledge!

This looks great. I didn't know him before this, but he looks like such a character. And if Anna thinks it's "death" for him not to photograph her, then he must be wonderful :) So happy to see it's playing in Scottsdale!
I saw an advanced screening and it's a-mazing. Loved it! Love him.
I was lucky enough to have my photo taken by mr cunningham once - it even made the style section. such an honor!
I watched it last night, it was amazing!
Also after the screening there was a meeting with the director and producer and some of the people who were in the movie were in the auditorium:).
This looks amazing!
Wow, what an exceptional person. Love it. And I can't wait to see the full documentary. Thank you for sharing this bit of news!

Thanks for your great posts. I learned about this documentary from your blog and my husband and I are going to see it at the Nuart next Friday. I can't wait!
I met him once. It was at a fashion illustration opening at an art gallery. He took photographs of a friend and I.
I told him I had been following his work since I was a young and I thought he was amazing. He returned with I'm only amazing because of young looking people like you.
It was a highlight of my life to see our picture in the times later.
I can't wait to see the movie!
bill cunningham.
the original o.g.
the legend!
i can't wait to see this documentary!!!
I hope they do it in Spain, I want to see it!
Thanks for great post! Not only is he one of the worlds greatest photographers, he alone has been "thee guy" that fashion followed! He always spotted the trends and knew what the street beat was! Igrew up with his photos! He is an icon!
Have a great Sunday!

Thank you for posting this! My husband and a few friends and I saw this Friday at the Nuart theater in Los Angeles. He is the cutest man I have ever seen and I want to hug him all day. Did you see it?
He's the best
thanks again!

Thank you so much for sharing this! Being an Atlantan transplant to LA, I wasn't familiar with Bill Cunningham but I love photography, film and fashion. The more eclectic, the better! This gave me the opportunity to reconnect with a friend, a Canadian photographer. Although we didn't get to see it on our first try (disaster struck but we bonded over a bottle of wine afterwards!), we did get to see one of the last showings in LA. It was such a great film! We both felt so inspired - as artists and as people. Bill is so adorable! I do hope they bring it back to LA so I can recommend it! Thank you again!
