Hockney

“A wealth of intimate home-movie footage and an affinity for his subject invigorate Randall Wright's unashamedly affectionate portrait of a British icon.” – The Guardian.

Randall Wright’s penetrating documentary renders a complex and colorful portrait of celebrated multimedia artist David Hockney, the British expatriate and longtime Angeleno whose images of his adopted city have profoundly impacted perceptions of L.A. in the public imagination. Enjoying unprecedented access to his subject’s private collection of images and films, Wright offers a multifaceted appraisal, reflecting on Hockney’s biography, creative process and personal life.
