Still from Frederick Wiseman's Model: Note the very 80's make-up inspiration

Well, truth be told, I should say INTENDED Current Viewing. The man called "America's most important documentary filmaker", Frederick Wiseman, happened to have turned his lens on the modeling industry in the 80's and the film is now available on DVD. As soon as I get back to my apartment on Friday, I'm placing my order. I suspect it will be more about commercial modeling than ultra-high fashion, but I bet there will be editorial inspirations aplenty in all that archival footage! Think Inez and Vinoodh.
