Review of Basquiat (1996) by James Berardinelli for ReelViews — 22 Mar 2000
According to Schnabel, the movie is intended to celebrate the man's life, not to mourn his death, so Basquiat's last days are not shown. It's one of many miscalculations made by the director, because, when the end credits roll, we're left without a sense of closure.
