Ruth Orkin: Frames of Life (1995) is a brief but excellent introduction to the photographer/filmmaker whose collaborations with her husband Morris Engel launched the beginnings of an independent filmmaking movement in New York City in the early fifties which led to later experiments by John Cassavetes (Shadows, 1959), Allen Baron (Blast of Silence, 1961) and others. Narrated by Julie Harris, who was photographed by Orkin along with actress Ethel Waters and playwright Carson McCullers during the Broadway run of The Member of the Wedding, the documentary also includes interviews with photographer Mary Ellen Mark, Cornell Capa (the founder of the International Center of Photography in New York), Ninalee Craig and Morris Engel.
