Summary: 4 Stars
Strand: Under the Dark Cloth is a Genie award (Canada's version of the Oscar) winning documentary about the photographer, Paul Strand. The film covers his life from his beginnings as an artist at the dawn of the 20th century, while under the influence of Alfred Steiglitz, to the point he took his very last photograph in his late eighties just before his death in 1976. Aside from showing his development as an artist it gives a real sense of who he was as a person and how his beliefs influenced the images he created. The documentary includes interviews with among others, Strand himself, Georgia O' Keefe, who knew Strand during the years he was under the influence of Steiglitz (her husband), as well as Strand's third wife, Hazel Strand. The highlight of the film is of course the haunting images Strand created. His unsuccessful foray into filmmaking is also covered and is the one section that might have been edited down a bit.
This is a film that will hold appeal to admirers of Paul Strand as well as students of photography in general.
