If you've been reading The New York Times forever, as I have, you know the work of Bill Cunningham, who has been photographing and writing about street fashion and high society, well... forever. Several years ago, on the occasion of his 80th birthday, Bill Cunningham New York, a documentary review of his life and work, came out. I'm no fashionista, but I've watched it three or four times, and my respect for him continues to grow. Such energy! Such joie de vivre! And behind the public persona, a most interesting private person, too. Bill Cunningham crafted his passion for fashion into a career. I can't imagine what The New York Times will do if he ever retires. Watch the film on Netflix.
