Finally Found...

Well, I finally found one of the the last Kiefer movies I hadn't seen...and I'm so glad I found it.

What's it called, you ask?

Paradise Found -- apropos, no? -- and it tells the story of Paul Gauguin, a French painter credited as the "father of post-impressionism."

Putting aside the fact that his art isn't my sort of taste, the movie is a masterpiece in and of itself. Visually beautiful, well thought out and acted, and haunting. It certainly made me want to know more about this artist.

Just the sort of film most critics pan....which is why I liked it, I guess.

Maybe I'll start a new category on my blog: "Films I Like -- Because the Critics Don't."
