Country: FR/GB/BEL
Technical: col 111m
Director: Agnieszka Holland
Cast: Leonardo DiCaprio, David Thewlis, Romane Bohringer
Synopsis:
Verlaine meets the young Rimbaud, a superior poet and selfish libertine who buggers him and sponges off him until he is shot for his pains.
Review:
Appallingly unsubtle dramatisation of a delicate artistic relationship, a grave disappointment from this director, though not from DiCaprio, who we know can only act the spoilt brat. Patience runs short as soon as Bohringer disappears from the scene.
