I recently watched the documentary WHAT REMAINS: THE LIFE AND WORK OF SALLY MANN and LOVED it. Already mesmerized by Mann's arresting images it was a thrill to get an intimate glimpse of her process. Her subjects from her famous Immediate Family series are grown, but her surroundings continue to be her muse. In a 2007 New York Times Review of the film Gina Bellafante wrote, "It is one of the most exquisitely intimate portraits not only of an artist’s process, but also of a marriage and a life, to appear in recent memory." This film is equally for those who are already fans of her work and for those looking to make her acquaintance.
