This fascinating film, produced in conjunction with the exhibition Edward Hopper, traces Hopper’s varied influences, from French impressionism to the gangster films of the 1930s. The documentary uses archival photos and film, specially shot footage of locations painted by Hopper in New York and the New England coast, and interviews with artists Eric Fischl and Red Grooms, scholars and curators.
Narrated by Steve Martin.
Bonus Materials: A slideshow of images of Hopper paintings included in the film with accompanying music.
