Beautiful loneliness, as the film suggestively reveals, is a texture that Frank knows all too well.

This cinema-verité style documentary chronicles the life of the legendary Swiss-American photographer Robert Frank, whose work—including “The Americans,” the most influential photography book of the last sixty years— continues to fascinate and inspire both casual observers and aspiring photographers alike. Includes recollections of collaborations with Jack Kerouac and The Rolling Stones.

The New York Times by Glenn Kenny
This material covers a good deal of the same ground as the 2016 documentary on Frank, “Don’t Blink.” Both films give a strong “lion in winter” sense and are moving in their treatments of the tragedies of Frank’s life. If you’ve seen “Don’t Blink,” you may ask whether you “need” to see this. I’d say yes. “More light,” as Goethe put it.
The Hollywood Reporter by John DeFore
More than anything, the doc lives up to its name as a portrait of the photographer in his old age.
Los Angeles Times by Robert Abele
The man is the movie, and the long stretch of lived road Frank describes as an immigrant grappling with his adopted country’s faults is revealing, at times heartbreakingly so.
