High Art
Lisa Cholodenko · 1998
Lisa Cholodenko’s 1998 debut follows Syd, a young magazine editor drawn into the orbit of Lucy, a reclusive photographer whose fame and heroin dependency unsettle Syd’s orderly life. Shot by Tami Reiker and anchored by Ally Sheedy’s restrained performance, the film traces the blurring of professional and personal boundaries in New York’s art world—with precision, restraint, and no easy answers.
