DONE IN THE 1980's, CLASSIC HAUSER CELEBRITY PORTRAITURE. 17/1/4" X 21", IMAGE SIZE 15" SQUARE. FREE HAND DELIVERY IN CHICAGO.It was some years ago, and photographer Marc Hauser had 15 minutes with Woody Allen to shoot a cover for a Canadian magazine. Hauser brought along his partner, and his courage."Woody walked into the area we had set up for the session," recollects Hauser, "and right away I started shooting some SX-70 Polaroids. He took his glasses off, and his hands went over his face; he started screaming, 'Stop shooting! Stop shooting!' Finally he sat down, and after two frames he said, 'I think you've got it.'"Well, then we started talking. He told a story about Bob Hope. He asked me what I thought of Bob Hope as a comedian. Like I thought about Bob Hope at all. But Woody said he'd been watching Bob Hope movies for a week straight and he thought the guy was terrific. Then he told me to stop the weird noises I was making. He had told me I had 15 minutes with him, but really I got even less than that."Or more than that. The session yielded one telling portrait of Allen. He is sitting by a wood table, his back to sheer curtains through which light pours. Allen has on a white button-down shirt and the signature horn-rimmed glasses, and he is looking directly at the camera with ennui in his eyes.
