"On The Street" is my favorite feature in the Sunday Styles section of the New York Times. I love looking at the crazy combos the big city folk come up with, wishing I had the attitude necessary to leave the house dressed like that. As soon as I saw the trailer for this documentary, I couldn't wait to get a glimpse of the life of Bill Cunningham, the man behind the photos. Be careful what you wish for.
Although I have a soft spot in my heart for all eccentrics, I wasn't prepared for the concern I now felt for this elderly stranger I'd just gotten to know. Is he going to get hit by a speeding taxi while pedaling to his next assignment? Is he adjusting to life after being removed from his long-time residence in a Carnegie Hall studio with no kitchen or bathroom? Has fashion been enough?
I wish I owned one of his hats.

Look for the black one on the street early on and the lounging one in the background of one of the interviewee settings. The lounger makes several appearances.
