Review of Séraphine (2008) by Jerry K — 14 Mar 2012

"Seraphine" is an exceptional, intense film with extraordinairy acting, most especially by Belgian actress Yolande Moreau in the title role. Martin Provost's skillful direction and magnificent camera work make this emotional true story of a gifted artist jump off the screen right into our hearts.

Themes such as artistic genius, faith, homosexuality and societal expectations are presented with a deft hand. The images presented in this special film will last for quite a while after viewing this cinematic masterpiece.
