The Last Vermeer

A true story, typically juiced up for the movie but still real enough. Top notch performances all around, and a great story to boot.

I'll basically watch any movie with a connection to the art world and Claes "Clash" Bang now, since The Square and Burnt Orange Heresy. It seems to be a signal to "watch this".

A well above average movie with good performances by Pearce and Bang. The movie starts rather slow and, dare I say, dull. I wasn't really sure if it could hold my interest. But it changed when the trial begins. Maybe they could have shortened the first half a little bit. But like I said the acting and the setup make it work. In any case it is a really interesting story I knew nothing about before.

An interesting true story but the film fails to engage
