Looking for Light: Jane Bown 2014 (5.8)

In the almost six decades that Bown worked for The Observer, she became renowned for insightful, highly individualistic portraits of the famous. Some of these portraits are now regarded as classics of the genre - Samuel Beckett, Queen Elizabeth II, The Beatles, Bertrand Russell, Mick Jagger and Margaret Thatcher. For the first time, she spoke candidly about her career and revealed how her very personal approach to the taking of portraits is informed by a deep sense of loss and abandonment. This private portrait is enhanced by a series of insightful interviews with Jane’s peers, family, colleagues, friends, and of course some of her subjects.

Cathy at War N/A

The slender figure of no more than 1.50 m that can be seen in the photographs of that time is misleading: Catherine Leroy (1944-2006) was driven by extraordinary courage and determination. These qualities took her to the four corners of the world, where she photographed the major conflicts of her time. She was the first woman to be awarded the prestigious Robert Capa Gold Medal for her reportage in Lebanon in 1976, and was also one of the first photographers to cover the Vietnam War, when she was just twenty years old. Directed by American photographer Jacques Menasche, this film looks back at her reporting at the heart of this conflict that shook the world, which she lived through from 1966 to the end of 1968. As more than 400 of her photographs are shown, we hear the letters that the photographer sent to her parents, interspersed with the accounts of those who were close to her at the time.
