The man who changed photography like never before; we must honour him !
Wow, what a beautiful film. It makes me want to shoot 16mm black and white movies again!
I remember this film from grade school.
Excellent!
By the time this film was made Weston was already exhibiting early signs of the Parkinson's which eventually killed him. He and the filmmaker, Willard van Dyke, had been friends before WWII and van Dyke wanted to make a film about his friend while he still could. I think it interesting that at the time (1948) the narrator described the large format view camera Weston used as 'old fashioned'. The terms some use when they see me using one here in 2019 can sometimes be described as less kind. :-)
Completely agree....the rigidity and paucity of facial expressions confirm your impression.
This made me so happy, thanks so much for sharing.
Great, great, great!!! A master piece!!! Thanks a lot for sharing this film with all us!!!
Amazing man ! Thanks for sharing!!
Love the car. The photography's pretty good too.
The station wagon with roof platform belonged to Ansel Adams.
Very nostalgic
That was great!
Awesome - we like it ☺
Brilhante!!
Typical music of the '40s - '50s and it seems they had been using the same narrator in every documentary of the period! These elements are a bit distracting, but the sceneries and (of course) the photography of the documentary are great
Would make a great DVD (HINT)!
Was anyone else not surprised he was with two young women? ;)
+legranderaoul Haha, absolutely not!
Edward liked women, and they felt comfortable around him.
The "fishermen" were actually Edward Weston´s sons =0)
They certainly hammed it up for the film !
nice camera
... not to forget paper (ISO3-ish)!
:)
1/50 of a second LOL!!!
Those film not so sensitive.
who is this beautiful woman alongside weston?
It may have been Dody Weston Thompson, but I´m not 100% sure.
@@Vesalempinen Yes, you are right. She was his last student and assistant.

You really do not know what you are talking about. We large format photographers still use film with a 50 ISO / ASA rating.
