Film and Art and two things which everyone would agree are synonymous to each other, and that in everything piece of cinema contains artistic elements to it. So what happens when Art also becomes the main topic of the film? Well, wonderful things start to happen, that’s what. Films about Art and Artists can be one of the most intriguing and enlightening pieces of cinema, as they often make us question the fabric of our society. With the release of new film Exhibition, from acclaimed British Director Joanna Hogg, we have listed all of the Best Films about Artists for you. Aren’t you lucky? by Melissa Haggar To celebrate Shakespeare Day 2014 it seems only fitting that we take you on a whimsical cinematic journey, guiding you across all films that you may not have known were in fact adaptations from the works of Shakespeare. Sounds riveting, no? by Melissa Haggar Possibly one of the most bizarre and simply hilarious romantic comedies of all time; The Princess Bride first appeared on the big screen in 1987 and later became a hit on good old VHS. A testament to its quality, the film was re-released several times on different formats and has since become what one might call a ‘cult classic’. So what is The Princess Bride about anyway, and what makes it so great? by Melissa Haggar With the recent announcement that a sequel to Mrs. Doubtfire is in fact in the works, and is being directed by Chris Columbus (with the script is being penned by David Berenbaum), it seems only fitting that we take a look back at the original. Whilst it is questionable as to whether the new cinematic venture will be successful, the original 1993 film (which is based on the novel by Anne Fine) could indeed be seen as a classic, which has been referenced numerous times in popular culture and was a box-office hit. |
