“A documentary memoir of American painter Edward Hopper, with a commentary by filmmaker and art critic Brian O’Doherty. Includes rare footage of the artist and a short critique of the orthodox art film, followed by the reminiscences of Hopper’s closest friends as they travel to visit his grave. Provides an intimate portrait of Edward and Jo Hopper’s marriage, but the focus is mainly on Hopper’s acerbic paintings, the icons of raking sunlight, deserted streets, decaying architecture, and the half-lives of the modern city glimpsed through overlapping windows.”
