Biopic, 19th Century, Art
Like stepping into one of his masterpieces, Mr. Turner transports you to 19th Century England--from the cloudy, dusty atmosphere of the city to the clear, picturesque and open countryside. I thoroughly enjoyed the visuals of this film. This is serious artistry and craftsmanship. The viewer really comes to understand why Turner felt compelled to paint the landscapes he saw--they were utterly beautiful.
Timothy Spall is incomparable as Turner--both gruff and polite, mysterious and sincere, closed and highly attune to the complexity and fragility of life.
