3. The Collector of Souls

For Alice Neel (1900-1984), painting was something she had to do. She captured faces — from high-profile figures like Andy Warhol, Bella Abzug, and Allen Ginsberg to a porn star and politicians. Her grandson Andrew Neel pieces together her life through archival video and interviews with surviving family members in Alice Neel. Stream the documentary at icaboston.org starting March 12. $8 per household.
