In case anyone hasn't got it and wants it, I have an .mp4 of The man who shot the '60s which I'd be happy to pass on on CD. I thought it was a pretty good profile, which got quite close to him. Maybe they'll repeat it though, now that he has died.

The film can be viewed on his website for those who haven't already seen it.

Had a chuckle at this:
David Bailey said he would have no-one to argue with now. He said: "If you said 'It's a nice day' to Duffy, he'd pick an argument with you."

That is sad news... I enjoyed his episode of "The man who shot the '60s".

He, Bailey and Donovan influenced much of the way I viewed photography in the 60's. His revival is down to his son Chris who has been archiving his work over the last three years or so.

Thanks to Chris' work I have four Duffy prints on my wall that I never thought I would have.

Tuesday, I had to change a piece I had done for Artist Partners (http://www.artistpartners.com/history/obit_duffy.html), last October, into an obituary. I have also done a post on my Blog (http://filmus-monochromus.tumblr.com/post/679213973/brian-duffy-1933-2010) if anyone is interested.

Wherever Duffy is now he will be arguing the pants off of whoever is in charge and making their life hell. :D
