We have 5 double in-season passes thanks to Transmission Films.


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.

For your chance to win, enter your details below and answer the following question:

Star of Final Portrait, Geoffrey Rush, is no stranger to playing real-life figures in his films. Which real-life musician did he portray in Shine (1996) – a role that won him an Oscar? ANSWER: David Helfgott

Entries close 6 p.m. AEST on 1 October 2017
