It's docu week at the Museum of Radio and TV in New York, and that means premiers panels, and some extraordinary talks.

PBS's American Masters gave audiences an advance look at the upcoming Annie Leibovitz profile. While the rough cut was perhaps a bit rougher than either the subject or the filmmakers would have liked - the entire experience was pretty extraordinary.

First of all - Annie Leibovitz was in the audience. And her entire family was there as well. Sisters, brothers, and her three children. It was like a Leibovitz family reunion. And since her sister was the filmmaker - there was plenty of complex family politics to go round.

Among the complex -and interesting - politics i the room... the fact that Annie was involved with Susan Sontage. Maybe i missed this chapter, and the film is pretty ginger about how it handles it, but the relationship is pretty gripping even with few details. Then there's the relationship between Annie and Jann Werner of Rolling Stone. If you buy the film's take on their relationship, he was a proud mentor who pushed her from the nest when it was time to go. But after annie took the stage, her first comment was 'there's too much of jann in there' and then again - after moment - "well, he wasn't easy to work for - when he was there." So clearly there relationship is more complex than the film lets on. And then there's the open question of the 3 children than arrive mid way into the film, with no explanation of where they came from. Perhaps it's private, but it's a bit strange to do a biographic profile and leave big questions about the subject unanswered.

With all of that said - the story is amazing. Annie started in San Fransico in the '60's, had extraordinary access to the Rolling Stones, and was the photographer to the rock and roll royalty for almost 20 years. The images, and footage from the 1960's - makes this film a must see. And Annie's pictures are the star of the show.
