The Monday Question: Art!

The Monday Question

This week will be filled with art related reviews: The Monuments Men, The Best Offer and The Art of the Steal. There is quite a choice when it comes to movies involving art. Whether it is documentaries like Exit through the Gift Shop or F for Fake or heist movies where precious paintings are stolen.

So I would like to ask you:
What are your favorite films involving art?

  1. Documentaries:

    “Herb & Dorthy”
    “Bill Cunningham’s New York”
    “My Kid Could Paint That”

    Feature:

    “The Thomas Crown Affair” – remake

    • Have seen My Kid Could Paint That, which I found interesting and totally made clear that the child probably did not do what the father claimed. Have not heard of the two other documentaries. Like you I really enjoyed The Thomas Crown Affair, it was a movie which felt like it had lots of class.

  2. Another mention for Exit Through the Gift Shop. Another documentary I quite enjoyed was Ai Weiwei: Never Sorry. Hiro Dreams of Sushi is about the culinary arts and is every bit as elegant as any painting. As for regular movies I quite enjoyed Frida and American Splendor.

    • Have not seen Ai Weiwei, but Hiro was indeed culinary art 🙂

      Frida and American Splendor are also two films I have not watched…
