In No Great Hurry: 13 Lessons in Life With Saul Leiter (2013)

Directed by Tomas Leach.

“In No Great Hurry floats some of [Leiter’s] most ethereal, lustrous images, soft, layered scenes that glow with a watercolor’s warmth, sharp departures from the gritty cityscapes of his contemporaries. His best work seems both of the moment and timeless.”
—Daniel M. Gold, New York Times

“In No Great Hurry is as pleasant and unaffected as its very modest subject, the photographer and painter considered to be a pioneer—along with Robert Frank and Diane Arbus—of the 1940s-’50s New York School era of photography… Fortunately, [the film] never succumbs to cutesy hagiography.”
—Sam Weisberg, Village Voice
