The debate over the photographer's work is very stimulating and a highlight of the doc.... Von Boehm lets many of Newton's images, which address power dynamics, speak for themselves. Full Review

Any artist who visibly raises the hackles of Susan Sontag deserves a closer look, and Gero von Boehm’s HELMUT NEWTON: THE BAD AND THE BEAUTIFUL is eager to oblige.

Product Description:

Documentarian Gero von Boehm sits down with noteworthy starlets and models from Claudia Schiffer and Grace Jones to Charlotte Rampling and Isabella Rossellini to explore the radical portraiture of photographer Helmut Newton and the impact his provocative, alluring, and at times transgressive photographs possessed in the realm of art and fashion. von Boehm peels away the rebellious layers of Newton's persona to expose the more humble individual beneath. Also featuring Anna Wintour and Catherine Deneuve.
