Film: Eloquent Nude: The Love & Legacy of Edward Weston and Charis Wilson (2006, 60 min.)
March 15, 2008
Wells Hall, Theatre C — Fellini, Red Cedar Road — MSU Campus, 4 p.m.

She was beautiful, smart, and searching. He was an emerging genius in the world of photography. When Edward Weston and Charis Wilson met in the 1930s they instantly fell in love. He was 50 and she 21. She became his model, his muse, his collaborator and even his wife.

Now 90, Charis Wilson recounts her years with Weston with great humor, candor, and some regret. Combining insight from leading scholars, rare archival images, and convincingly authentic reenactments, Eloquent Nude presents a remarkable true story of love and loss, travel and adventure, and an intimate look at the making of Modern photography.

Director Ian McCluskey is scheduled to attend. KAM is co-sponsoring this event as part of the East Lansing Film Festival.
