This is a very rare promotional DVD from HBO.  The DVD is stamped with basic information and comes sealed inside a plain jewel case.  There is no sleeve and no artwork.  The DVD is in mint condition and has never been viewed.  The DVD includes the full documentary.

Helmut Newton revolutionized fashion photography and electrified the art world with disturbing, highly eroticized images that transformed lush-bodied women into exquisite icons.

Dubbed the "King of Kink" by Time magazine, Newton died in 2004, leaving behind an influential and subversive body of work.

The CINEMAX Reel Life presentation HELMUT BY JUNE portrays Newton's life as a photographer as seen through the lens of wife June Newton, who documented her husband at work at a number of shoots in the '90s.

The resulting portrait, distributed in Europe, was seen by devoted fan and Newton intimate Brett Ratner ("X-Men: The Last Stand"), who was determined to help bring it to a wider audience in the United States.

Updated with opening commentary from June, which was filmed by executive producer Ratner.

Using only the most basic camera equipment, Helmut Newton created haunting visual narratives set in a world saturated with sex, glamour and implied violence.
