have you ever watched bill cunningham new york? i caught it on netflix and couldn't have been more inspired. it sort of felt like the same kind of inspiration when i watched jiro dreams of sushi. there is nothing more gratifying than living your life doing something you love, and bill cunningham does just that. with his bicycle and his camera, he has been recording what people wear in new york city. i just love his documenting of the city's street style.
have you seen bill cunningham new york?
what are some documentaries that you've been watching lately?

Awesome!
DeleteI love love love Jiro Dream of Sushi, but haven't seen Bill Cunningham, so thank you for this! I'm adding it to my queue :) Also, my cousin and his wife got to go to Jiro's restaurant when they went to Japan - they had to make reservations months in advance but said it was well worth it!
ReplyDeleteThat is so so awesome! Yangkyu and I were talking about making reservations :) Such an amazing person.
DeleteI have not seen it but I will! It looks absolutely inspiring and interesting! Whenever there is passion in something it makes it all the better....and he has passion! Thanks for sharing and a wonderful weekend to you! Nicole xo
ReplyDeletehave a wonderful weekend as well!
DeleteThis looks brilliant, had never seen it before, but he's brilliant!! Super passion and dedication too :)) Happy Friday doll xx
ReplyDeleteyes! i love seeing folks who love what they do! they exude happiness like no other!
DeleteWe just watched Jiro Dreams of Sushi last week and LOVED it! Going to have to put this one on our Netflix queue too!
ReplyDeletesuch a great documentary right? this one is just as good!
DeleteOh gosh need to watch this one. Can I be lame and say I actually have never heard of him before - oops!
ReplyDeleteI've watched this multiple times. I admire the way he views life not to mention his eye for detail. He is definitely one of the people I want to meet however I doubt that will ever happen. Excellent film!
ReplyDeleteLove his smiling faces! I guess it's after the happiness of doing what he enjoys most. I learnt about him like 4 or 5 years ago or so, but never got the chance to see the documentary, I should! :) thanks for the reminder I have added it now to my watchlist!
