The September Issue Screening: Bloggers Meet Director

RJ Cutler answered questions last night at an advance screening of The September Issue at the Bryant Park Hotel. (Anna Wintour, shown with Cutler above, was unfortunately not there.)

He was funny, making jokes about refusing to be a fly on the wall while shooting at Vogue and noting that indeed, this cut of the documentary was exactly what he wanted – Anna’s hand did not edit.  And apparently, she understood the importance of this from the beginning of the project.

Along with pink Champagne, there was popcorn, an item we can’t imagine the slender Wintour would ever approve.  Luckily, she wasn’t there to wag a thin finger at us.

The documentary opens on August 28th in New York and September 11th elsewhere; check out the trailer:
