"Patti Smith: Dream of Life" opens today in New York City
Date: Aug 6, 2008 6:36 PM

"Patti Smith: Dream of Life" opens today at New York City's Film Forum for a limited two-week engagement.

Permit us to discard our usual dispassionate voice and urge those interested in Patti Smith and her work to see this film. Steven Sebring's movie, filmed over twelve years, is both entertaining and deeply moving, one of the most intimate portraits of an artist we have ever seen. If you are interested in Patti and her work, you will love "Patti Smith: Dream of Life".

Just today we learned that the film won the Best Documentary prize at the 29th Durban International Film Festival, with this citation:

"exquisitely and sensitively filmed, this documentary goes to the heart of its subject. It captures the passion, calm, poetry and venom of an incredible human being. The film weaves us through historically charged footage right through to the present and allows us glimpses at an uncompromising and consistent energy that has always believed in the empowerment of all."

Here is a message which director Steven Sebring sent yesterday:

Greetings,

It's twelve years since this project began and we really appreciate your interest and would like to thank you for your support with this update on the film Patti Smith: Dream of life.

It premiered at the Sundance Film Festival in January where it received the award for best cinematography in a documentary. It is currently scheduled to screen or has been shown at the following film
