personally I rate Bonnard as one of the greats of the 20th C ; in my top five; most of them French (1900 -1925) or German expressionists from the same time frame
knew nowt about his life and Marthe; I do now if this is accurate a depiction of their lives
he is known for the complexity of his strokes and the fact that Picasso hated him always made me like him even more "he uses yellow green pink blue brown" he needs to make up his mind and use only one said the Malagueño brute; he could not see it .... his loss , too understated for him
Marthe in the bath (multiple versions) is one of the most subtle works of the 20thC
Anyway to the filum. Was very dubious when i saw they had cast.
Vincent Macaigne as Pierre and
Cécile de France as Marthe
I have seen them in so many films always comedies and brilliant both of them in those it seems
Vincent Macaigne must have dieted severely to play the elfin Bonnard I have seen him to be usually portly; but I was very surprised they really shifted into those characters; I suppose that is what great actors do.
Totally recommended for lovers of Art before Duchamp destroyed Art 🙂🙃😉 single-handedly; also great scenes in French countryside here.
