My hero.

If only everyone could be like Bill. 

Bill Cunningham New York

My favorite movie of 2011. I didn’t expect much going into it - Bill Cunningham is undeniably awesome, but an entire documentary? Well, I was wrong. Bill Cunningham is so sincere, passionate, free of pretension, dedicated, and endlessly curious. He sees fashion as beauty, but also as something that moves him, that he wants to share, that fits so much emotion into a microcosm of expression. Bill’s dedication to something that is both personal to him and universal captures so well what it feels like to have a way of life fade away while still living in a manner that embodies what your entire history has been about.
