Before watching the documentary, I just quickly read through the two albums of Vivian published in China, which makes people feel that Vivian is far away from people but longs to be close to people. The two feelings collide in the photos, sad and Warmth. When I watched it, I kept thinking, what kind of person is Vivian Maier? What kind of experience makes her photos so unique? At this time, I happened to finish reading "Memories of a Dog", and the recommendation page recommended "Finding Vivian Maier". Following the camera, I saw her weirdness, and when I saw the middle, her paranoia even made people feel a little scary (forcing children to eat or something), but the film from "other people's 'complaints'" accesses her bleak old age "After that, think about her who has always kept her distance from others, who has always been maverick, and begged others to "Talk to me. Let's talk. Let's talk." After her friends refused, she would even continue "But you are my friend. But you are my friend.", this kind of contrast makes people feel pity and make people feel at a loss, those weird behaviors, those terrible paranoia, maybe after all, they are just the armor they put on themselves. I broke through my armor when I could rely on myself like I did when I was young, but all the people I could be friends with were drifting away. Finally, Vivian's photos are exhibited all over the world, making the world in her eyes known to everyone, and now her name has been resounding throughout the world, I think this belated attention, every viewer's smile or thought And love for her is the best ending to her album. Thanks to John Maloof for discovering her work and making it public, and for taking us into Vivienne's world through the documentary. Someone in the documentary commented that "she has the ability to enter the stranger's space, and the moment she presses the shutter, she also makes the person photographed feel very comfortable." This is the second main reason for the success of her street shooting works, and I seem to have no idea at all. I don’t have it yet. In this era of strong portrait protection awareness, plus I’m timid, I don’t dare to get too close to others, let alone the second point. I feel like my photography career is over in an instant, but I’m joking. Just kidding, if you have time, you still have to go out for a walk, maybe everything will come slowly.
