Picture of Beauty

... if you're looking for a film that shows an artist capturing naked tableaux of pretty girls - although several of the painting scenes (and outdoor shots) look very much like similar settings to that film. Also, although this film *does* attempt a (literal) framing device and backstory for the action, it's fairly thin fare by comparison. And the ending is pretty pathetic as a result.

As someone else has noted, this is a lot less lesbian-oriented than the marketing would imply, but the cinematography isn't that bad, most of the core cast are fairly attractive and look like they could also act if given better material.

The description of this film made it seem like a full feature film which it quite has a plot, even if it's very non existent and quite secondary. This film is a European foreign film so we could expect something quite different than the typical Hollywood norms. This is closer to an adult film than an actual feature film. Featuring plenty of explicit nude scenes throughout, with most of which has a male painter painting these young nude women.

There is a brief explicit unsimulated scene which borders on adult film essentials but they try and scope the film with artwork and lavish paintings and such. Overall not a film to watch if you're looking for an actual story. Although it's very short in runtime.

I mean am I supposed to be mad at the movie? Can it be actually really called that at all though? If you are into beautiful women being naked most of the running time and having ... "fun" with each other or some lucky men ... yeah ok so you could go to other places and find more of what you are looking for. Because while this is borderline hardcore, it only crosses the line occasionally.

Now I mentioned the females but you will see a lot of male nudity in this too. Maybe you are into that (that is beyond me, but it is what it is) - and yes by that I mean the private parts too! So while I thought this would be an artful movie (I guess the painiting at least can be considered that), it probably will not feel like that at all ... I wouldn't know what it feels like to be honest.

I have the need to defend this movie. It's slow, there are barely any dialogue, the performance it's not good, it's full of art that do not belong to that time, but! This film is an excuse to present beautiful nude people, ladies and gentlemen as well, with them on long scenes enjoying themselves around the lake. They live in the opposite way of a priest and his two nuns who enjoy ruining others lives and declaring around what is a sin.

Do not expect too much out of it, just enjoy the images, the nude bodies and the sex.

The cover pic for this DVD would indicate that this is an erotic girl/girl film, but that's basically a trick from the marketing people to get you interested in watching this dud, as there's really nothing even remotely lesbian about it. OK, I suppose there ARE a couple of brief encounters showing unclad young women in close proximity with other unclad women, but it's painfully obvious that the writer/director included these moments almost accidentally. This film's got an overall uninteresting storyline, and what little sex is included involves guys. But notice how they didn't show any guys on the cover pic? I guess that's because it's always hotter to pretend that your film is mostly about pretty naked girls! So why didn't they actually film it that way?
