Title: Win 1/10 "Final Portrait" double in-season passes - QLD only. Post by: culturebird on Wednesday 13 September 2017, 01:59:21 pm (https://theweekendedition.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/FinalPortrait2-1100x550-c-default.jpg)
In 1964, while on a short trip to Paris, the American writer and art-lover James Lord (Armie Hammer) is asked by his friend, the world-renowned artist Alberto Giacometti (Geoffrey Rush), to sit for a portrait. The process, Giacometti assures Lord, will take only a few days. Flattered and intrigued, Lord agrees. So begins not only the story of a touching and offbeat friendship, but, seen through the eyes of Lord, a uniquely revealing insight into the beauty, frustration, profundity and, at times, downright chaos of the artistic process. Final Portrait is a bewitching portrait of a genius, and of a friendship between two men who are utterly different, yet increasingly bonded through a single, ever-evolving act of creativity. It is a film which shines a light on the artistic process itself, by turns exhilarating, exasperating and bewildering, questioning whether the gift of a great artist is a blessing or a curse. https://theweekendedition.com.au/gold-coast/win/final-portrait/ |
