Helmut Newton: The Bad and the Beautiful

2020・Germany・89 minutes

Helmut Newton, a master of Jewish photography, was born in Berlin during the Weimar era. Under the influence of Laney Reifenstein, he became fascinated by the strange power of photography. Obsessed with themes of strong female body aesthetics and erotic fetishes, has left many classic portraits of authoritative fashion celebrities. Although its fame has also attracted criticism of objectification and misogyny, its bold breakthroughs still redefine the appearance of modern women in front of the camera. Gesture and imagination. The entire film re-edited Hamter's precious video materials during his lifetime, and stars gathered together to give their own testimony, wonderfully recreating the legendary inspirational moment of the iconic photographer of the 20th century.
