Review of Whiteley (2017) by Wayne M — 20 May 2017
Whiteley is an illuminating look at an icon of Australian art. This documentary gave me a complete feel for the man and the artist in a thorough and artistic way. There is no narration and no talking heads, rather an organic feel with clips of the man and quotes from him.
Some in his own voice and some read by actors. Whiteley was a candle that burnt far too briefly. He gave so much joy to the world and still does. And yet his life ended far too early in tragic circumstances.
If you are interested in great Australian lives then I totally recommend this fine documentary.
