Review of National Gallery (2014) by Radu S — 26 Jan 2015

Much much too long. No real narrative, repetitious, incomplete scenes, no explanation of who we are watching. There's a partial budget meeting, multiple scenes of someone explaining a painting to some sort of crowd, sometimes children-but usually on the conclusion of the talk, a man going up on a cherry picker to adjust a light and an hour later a partial scene explaining why he is doing that.

There is never enough of any thing developed to the point of actually understanding what and why something is portrayed. On the positive side, the art historian was excellent and should have had more screen time, the art was beautiful and familiar and the faces of the people who cam to the gallery were wonderful.
