Die Kunst des toten Mannes (2019)
68KDie Kunst des toten Mannes: Directed by Dan Gilroy. With Jake Gyllenhaal, Rene Russo, Zawe Ashton, Tom Sturridge. A satire set in the contemporary art world scene of Los Angeles, where big money artists and mega-collectors pay a high price when art collides with commerce.
“Itu0026#39;s a bit ironic, this film that wants to explore the vapid shallowness of the fine art world in a stylish horror movie setting… ends up inviting the very same criticisms that the finely dressed tastemakers in the film fling about.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eOk. Buzzwords aside. I did enjoy this film more than I disliked it. But in all earnestnest, it was by a hair. Knowing this came from the same guy who made the excellent psochological thriller Nightcrawler. This is like asketchbook of ideas for a giallo-inspired slasher. Each individually awesome. But thereu0026#39;s no real throughline to keep us going. People pop up until they die gruesome deaths. It feels kind of slapped together haphazardly.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI expected more from Gilroy”
