To be honest, it was all 5 points for Vivian Maier, and the documentary itself has a general look and feel.
After watching the documentary, I went to station B to search for her photo album. It is undeniable that her talent in photography, the wonderful combination of composition, light and shadow and content, presents works that transcend time. Her subjects are never fixed. She shoots men sleeping alone on the beach, luxurious women holding sables, other people's muddy butts and bare calves, pet dogs that are kept in captivity, and dead in Wild cat on the roadside.
Through her lens, it is her eyes that examine the world, calm and a little witty. She is an absolute bystander, a marginal figure outside the mainstream society. Perhaps it is because she is far enough away from the crowd that it is easier to observe the world from another angle.
For me, who is new to photography and is deeply immersed in the sugar water film that pursues public aesthetics, her works have given me another layer of thinking about photography and recording.
