Klimt (2006)
Post-modern referential poetic movie
Those who find this movie boring, even terrible, are probably not familiar with post-modern cinema. This is not a Hollywood classic recipe movie, it is an post-modern art film that relies on poetry and a reference system to other pieces of art to give meaning to symbols.
Concerning one of the uncultivated commenters who thought that there was too much "talk, talk, talk", well that part was meaningful and well done. It portrayed the pedantic falsely deep talk of that particular social class in that particular era, and at the same time show Klimt's point of view on it.
As another commenter said, bad scores to this movie is not about the movie but more about the viewer. Not because you don't understand references and are not used to that kind of movie that it is bad.
