The “Bill” in question is 80+ New York Times photographer Bill Cunningham. For decades, this Schwinn-riding cultural anthropologist has been obsessively and inventively chronicling fashion trends and high society charity soires for the Times Style section in his columns “On the Street” and “Evening Hours.” Documenting uptown fixtures (Anna Wintour, Tom Wolfe, Brooke Astor, David Rockefeller—who all appear in the film out of their love for Bill), downtown eccentrics and everyone in between, Cunningham’s enormous body of work is more reliable than any catwalk as an expression... of time, place and individual flair. In turn, Bill Cunningham New York is a delicate, funny and often poignant portrait of a dedicated artist whose only wealth is his own humanity and unassuming grace. [show more]

Documentary profile of New York Times fashion photographer Bill Cunningham. At 80-years-old, Cunningham still maintains a lively passion for street photography, charity work and his fashion column in the New York Times, which has a devoted following among fashionistas including Vogue editor Anna Wintour, who is a contributor to the film. For an afficionado of the fashion world Cunningham follows a remarkably ascetic lifestyle, his favoured mode of transport being his bicycle, his apartment sparsely furnished - and his own wardrobe consisting, more or less, of the clothes on his back.
