    I enjoyed this movie. Very interesting to see how an artist approaches his craft. As they say "you can't rush art!". Therefore I didn't have a problem with the pace of the movie. I highly recommend. 7 years 2 months ago

    A fascinating, meditative exploration of art. To me, personally, it is about art as a way to capture a feeling or a moment in time, something that is brief and ephemeral. Erice and Antonio do not seem to share the same exact views on art and the art process, but their viewpoints understand and complement each other perfectly and I think the movie manages to find a compelling common narrative for both. 5 months 2 weeks ago
