Peter Hujar's Day with Ira Sachs | Picturehouse

Clare Binns talks to filmmaker Ira Sachs about his new film Peter Hujar's Day live on stage at the Duke's at Komedia cinema in Brighton. 

Ben Whishaw and Rebecca Hall star in the stunning new film from Ira Sachs, a richly cinematic rendering of the meeting of acclaimed photographer Peter Hujar and writer and artist Linda Rosenkrantz.

Recorded in 1974, Hujar describes the routines and rituals that define an artist's life, capturing a single day's activities in touching and funny detail: from interactions with cultural icons of the day, including Allen Ginsberg, William S. Burroughs and Susan Sontag, to the texture and energy of downtown New York in its heyday.

Both elegant and intimate — and a dazzling showcase for the two performers at its centre — PETER HUJAR’S DAY is both a masterful portrait of a time and place and a captivating film about the way art emerges from the intimate details of everyday life.
