Love is the Devil: Study for a Portrait of Francis Bacon (1998)

£0.00


Country: GB/FR/JAP
Technical: col 91m
Director: John Maybury
Cast: Derek Jacobi, Daniel Craig

Synopsis:

The painter Francis Bacon surprises a burglar, whom he takes as his lover and eventually destroys through his inability to engage emotionally with anything other than his art.

Review:

A soul-destroying wallow in the self-indulgence of genius for most viewers, particularly those unversed in the merits of this one's art, but packaged more quirkily than most, with many memorable lines and flamboyant visual strokes.
