Girlfriends
N.p. N.p., Circa 1978. Vintage borderless reference photograph from the 1978 film, showing director Claudia Weill with actress Melanie Mayron on the set. Annotations in manuscript ink on the verso.
From the archive of film historian and author Joel Finler.
A young, single photographer struggles to maintain her friendship with her former roommate after the woman marries and moves out of their longtime shared apartment. Weill's first feature film, a warm and incisive depiction of life as a woman in New York in the late 1970s, described by Stanley Kubrick in 1980 as "one of the very rare American films that I would compare with the serious, intelligent, sensitive writing and filmmaking that you find in the best directors in Europe. It wasn't a success, I don't know why; it should have been."
Shot on location in New York.
10 x 8 inches. Fine.
National Film Registry. Criterion Collection 1055.
