Film Reviews by None

This film relies on strong visuals, with the cinematography reminiscent of Renoir's paining style. Apart from these visuals, the film is painfully slow and rather dull. It focuses on a period of Renoir's later life when he is wheelchair-bound. The story focuses more on the arrival of a young woman who models for him and her impact on his family. If I hadn't been absorbed with following the language alongside the subtitles, I would have stopped watching it within the first half hour, and abandoning a film is something I very rarely do!
