This is not the place to learn everything you always wanted to know about Goldin but were afraid to ask, rather this is a look at the lady as she goes through her life, meeting friends, preparing her art and looking back at friends and family. Its a warm and fuzzy portrait of the woman that makes me think that had I met her 20 years ago I would have fallen madly and hopelessly in love with her.
Good god what a woman.
To be perfectly honest I'm not sure how to write this film up. The film isn't the sort of thing that you can really discuss or pick apart. This is a portrait of the artist of a certain period of time. You can't complain that it doesn't tell you everything since its not that sort of a film. For me this is really good time with a wonderful woman. Its does what any good documentary should do which is make you go out and try and find out more. When the film ended I jumped on line and was trying to find out more- more information and more interviews.
Its a blast and a half.
Go see this film. The film opens June 13th for a week long run at the Quad Cinema and the director Sabine Lidl will be at some of the screenings.
