Synopsis
In this intimate and visually rich documentary, filmmaker Warren Elgort turns the camera on his father, legendary fashion photographer Arthur Elgort whose candid, movement-driven style transformed the pages of Vogue and redefined the look of modern fashion photography. Told through unprecedented archival footage, iconic Vogue shoots, and heartfelt present-day interviews with industry icons including Anna Wintour, Linda Evangelista, Christy Turlington-Burns, Cindy Crawford, and Grace Coddington, Arthur Elgort: Models & Muses captures the spontaneity, humor, and genius behind Arthur's work. As Warren uncovers the man behind the camera, the film becomes both a celebration of a creative legacy and a tender portrait of a father through the eyes of his son.
