Review of Museum Hours (2012) by David F — 18 Aug 2013

This is probably the best movie ever made about a museum guard. It's slow, contemplative, nearly plotless, and bisected by a long, fully illustrated discussion of the work of Brueghel by a museum docent which was actually the most interesting part for me.

Many random scenes of contemporary Viennese life and facts about the Austrian capital are thrown into the story of a thoughtful museum guard and his friendship with a Canadian visiting an ill relative.
