As promised, I visit Vienna and the Kunsthistoriches.
Just so you know, Johannes Holzhausen's 2014 behind the scenes documentary was entitled The Great Museum.
Security guard Johann (Bobby Sommer) befriends Anne (Mary Margaret O'Hara), whose arrival in Austria's capital is not for pleasure, but to visit her coma struck cousin in hospital.
Art begins to shape perspective and everyday issues are dissected.
Jem Cohen's 2012 film is odd and ponderous, but beautifully shot.
Split into four terrific slices, please observe the meat of a simply sublime collection.
1. Majestic Miscellany
2. Magnificent Multiples
a) Paolo Veronese
b) Giovanni Bellini
c) Titian
d) Bartholomeus Spranger
e) Rembrandt
f) Caravaggio
3. Magical Mixture
4. Pieter Bruegel the Elder
Works of Netherlandish renaissance master dominates proceedings.
Yes, a fitting finale.
Tourist attractions are done, but is the silver screen?
Not really...
