How an artist and his model can sink in the process of creating art completely forgetting their surrounding life? That is the story of the film “The Beautiful Troublemaker”. The director Jacques Rivette has done this wonderfully by portraying an artistic process, which transcended themselves and rose on the level of a quest. Rivette’s masterpiece can be interpreted in many ways but naming it erotica shows a lack of respect for the artistry. If you love painting then you should watch the movie.
