Scott Caan And Brett Ratner Are Photographic Artistes

Brett Ratner (who just put out a book of Scott Cann's photographs on his Rat Press imprint): I love [Scott's] photographs. You’ve gotta see the book, I swear, or I wouldn’t have published it — it cost me a fucking fortune, but Scott has such an eye. He’s not trying. It’s just his perspective from growing up in Hollywood as a child of an actor and then an actor himself. That’s what makes him unique. Scott has such a specific point of view; he shoots what he’s interested in.

Movie Line: For example?


Ratner: It’s a lot of naked girls — which I like, too — and a lot of actors that he’s worked with. A naked girl is not just a nude. Look at the lighting, the way the light hits her face. Look at the way he’s having her pose. He sees something specific, and that’s why I thought I would do it. And I call it Vol. I because he has so much work call it Vol. I because he has so much work. If we sell out of these books, we can make a Vol. II. 

Brett Ratner proves once again he's nothing but a classy, classy guy with dignified art holding the highest value in his life. [Movieline]

From Amazon:

Product Description
This book exposes the raw photojournalism of actor/writer/director/photographer Scott Caan, chronicling his work thus far. This series of unapologetic photos is directed at art connoiseurs, young Hollywood voyeurs, fashionistas, and street-obsessed youth. Scott's passionate, and gutsy, attitude has distinguished him as a photographer and allowed him to compose intimate images that are without question inaccessible to the masses.

I see Ratner butchers english like he butchers movies.

..and I love the implication that Caan is "deeeep maaan!!"

"The masses just ain't ready for this heavy shit maaan!"
