Film Review: By the Ways: A Journey with William Eggleston, 2007


I was prepared to write a review of this film but found Neil Young has hit all the major points I wished to make.  I did, though, learn about Tav Falco, a musician and photographer who served as Eggleston's assistant in the early 1970's.  At first I thought he must be an actor playing a scripted part dreamed up by the filmmakers, but he is in fact for real, hairdo and all.  Eggleston's world is so redolent of a David Lynch creation.  

In any case, you can safely skip this film unless you're a diehard who needs to see everything about Eggleston. If you want to buy my DVD copy, post a comment here or send me an email.
