We caught a bit of this the other day. I definitely want to see the whole thing one of these days.

Me too Ann. I kind of dismissed it as a WTF freakshow at first, but HBO did a "making of" and I found myself riveted!
XOXO

It seems like an interesting idea for a film. If nothing else, it will make the furry crowd happy.

When is the tickling crowd be happy dammit!

I will definitely watch it! I have a book of photography that features innovative photographers and the photo example of hers always kind of disturbed me (the child holding the toy grenade). Your post made me look into more of her photography and I am fascinated! I want to know more about her. Love her way of kind of laying it right out there in pictures. Does make you wonder what her freaky side was…
Here's a link to some of her work http://www.artphotogallery.org/02/artphotogallery/photographers/diane_arbus_01.html

Cool link aylaboo~thanks!

I've always enjoyed her as a photographer too but this story was new to me. HBO usually does such a good job. I hope this won't be one of those where the trailer showed you all the good parts and the movie itself sucks!
XOXO

It sounds like it would be a pretty good movie. You've piqued my interest, Steph. Plus, Nicole Kidman is for me on of the most beautiful and sexy ladies to ever hit the silver screen.

I looked at some of her photographs and I wonder if the picture of the identical twin girls was the inspiration for the creepy twins in The Shining?

Nicole's a great actress, but what a shocker she is lately. She really needs to lay off the botox and collagen injections.
