William Klein dirige este documental sobre el boxeador cuyo título original es Muhammad Ali, the Greatest y cuya traducción española es Cassius, el grande. El director retrata la vida del boxeador desde su combate contra Sonny Liston en 1964 hasta su su victoria con George Foreman. Al menos es así en su última versión, porque en realidad este documental se estrenó antes de la pelea contra Foreman, en 1969 y el director hizo unos cuantos montajes alternativos para incluirla. De su combate contra Sonny Liston en 1964 a su victoria contra George Foreman en 1974, la increíble trayectoria de Cassius Clay, alias Muhammad Ali, boxeador brillante y orador genial. (FILMAFFINITY)

This book that is being flipped is from the English edition. Published by Dewi Lewis Publishing, Manchester (England), 1995. -- It was Winogrand, giving advice to photographers, who said, "They should be, the problem is, the primary problem is learning to be your own toughest critic. You have to pay attention to intelligent work. And work at the same time. I mean, you have to bounce what you do with better work. It's a matter of working" (1981). This Winogrand quote is at the heart of the book flips. -- What is Book Flip? Book Flip (hereafter BF) exists to expose (if not seen before) some photography work to the public (meaning probably to 1 or 2 of you). Primarily street, social landscape, documentary photography, a few landscape works out there that may not have gotten much airpla...

Is it a good philosophy to view things with the wondrous eyes of a child seeing something for the very first time coupled with the eyes of appreciation and gratitude of an older person who might never see it again? I think so. So, it’s with this passionate attitude that I enjoy looking for people, places or things which excites my mind. I enjoy learning about other people’s achievements. How did they do it? How can you do it? So, for the next 30 minutes sit back and relax while you and I explore these very special wonders that make people successful and interesting.

Mostra del fotografo William Klein a Milano, nel Palazzo della Ragione
Exposition photographique "Figures du siècle". Abbatiale Saint Ouen à ROUEN.
William Klein has spent six decades producing works that are raw, direct, and confrontational. As an artist, he has resisted categorization and worked within and across many mediums. His vision embraces a moral conscience and a passion for discord, and his films fall into two disparate but complementary categories: eviscerating social satires and illuminating documentaries. It is mostly through the latter that he betrays his fascination with outsiders—both heroes and outlaws. The legendary Klein appears in conversation at the Walker with Paulina del Paso, filmmaker and associate programmer for FICCO 2009 (Festival Internacional de Cine Contemporáneo de la Ciudad de México). Presented in conjunction with the film retrospective: In & Out of Fashion: The Films of William Klein This prog...

Oh it's of a ship and a ship of fame
Launched off the stocks, bound to sail the main
With one hundred and fifty brisk young men
Well picked and chosen every one
And william glenn was the captain's name
He was a fine and a tall young man
As fine a sailor as sailed the sea
And we were sailing to new barbary
On the first of april, then we set sail
Blessed with a fine and a prosperous gale
And we were bound for new barbary
With all of our whole ship's company
We hadn't been sailing a league or two
Til all of our whole ship's jovial crew
They all fell sick but 63
As we were sailing to new barbary
One night the captain then he did dream
A voice came to him and said to him
"prepare yourself and your company
For tomorrow night you must lie with me"
This woke the captain in a terrible fright
It being the third watch of the night
And aloud for the bosun then he did call
And to him told his secrets all
"bosun" he said "it grieves my heart
To think I've played a villain's part
A man I slew in staffordshire
And all for the sake of his lady fair
And of the ghost of that I am afraid
That has in me such terror bred
So keep the secret within your breast
And pray to the lord that he gives you rest"
We hadn't been a sailing a league but three
Til raging grew the roaring sea
There rose a tempest up in the skies
Which did our seamen much surprise
And the main mast sprung by the break of day
Which made our rigging all but to give way
And did our seamen much afright
The terrors of that awful night
And then the bosun he did declare
That the captain was a murderer
This so enraged the whole ship's crew
That overboard our captain threw
Our treacherous captain he being gone
Immediately there came a calm
And the winds abated and so did the sea
And we went sailing to new barbary
And when we came to the spanish shore
Our good little ship for to repair
The people there were amazed to see
Our dismal case and such misery
Now seamen all wherever you may be
I pray you take a warning from me
As you love life won't you have care
