She invented the selfie! Go see it, it's so interesting! It creates great discussion about mental illness and art. Specifically when does something become art, artist intentions, and how we treat art once the creator is no longer around. The story is really interesting too. I know a lot about this because John Maloof (the guy he discovered her work and made/stars in the movie) is a friend of ours and used to be an improvisor before this started taking over his life. The last time we saw him in probably late April, at the Chicago premiere, he said they have finally finished developing all the black and white but have more than 3,000 rolls of color to go through yet, and some videos that still need to be watched and cataloged. |
