You may like this if you want a moody, art-focused character study with strong acting and a painterly feel; Not for you if you prefer a fast-moving story or something more straightforward, like Loving Vincent or Basquiat.
Pros: Willem Dafoe shines; vivid, immersive atmosphere; strong emotional pull | Cons: shaky visuals; slow pacing; uneven dialogue
