Review of Mapplethorpe (2019) by Matt Zoller Seitz for RogerEbert.com — 02 Apr 2021
The thing that makes the film stand out is the way it shows artists relating to each other and to their work. It's rare to see a movie about creative people that accurately captures the way they'll size each other up on first meeting and then, once they've determined that the other person is serious, proceed immediately to the sharing of influences and the granular discussion of theory and technique.
