Rating Summary
Absolutely brilliant. The first film I've not fallen asleep in in 25 years. Thought proving, exquisitely acted (including the many 'walk-on parts ') beautiful and clever cinamatography and lol funny in places. Some clever set piece scenes worked together into a longer edge-of-the-seat narrative. At one end there's almost slapstick comedy, at the other a (deliberately) overlong cring-making "non" ologue that would put a family guy cutaway to shame. If I was to make any comparison it would be to "run lola, run"; totaly different in story and execution but I remember being equally blown away on its release by its thoughtful, frseh idiosyncrasies.

A decadent curator faces an existential crisis, as does his gallery, when he hires a public relations team to build some hype for his renowned Swedish museum which ends in disaster.
