      not necessarily sarcasm

      Off-topic: The most famous satire about a painting critic was designed by the British media a few years ago: a worker was invited to scribble on paper, and then the scribble (painting) was shown to a group of uninformed critics. Surprisingly, it won a very high rating. After the report came out, it embarrassed those critics.

      The film doesn't seem like a satire. The scribbles of the undercover policeman back to basics (children's paintbrushes), the triangles that the professor has...

      Art is an asshole


      The secret is just that. I didn't pay attention to who the director and actor were, but damn, so ironic.
      At the beginning of the movie, all kinds of art freshmen enter the school, dressed in fancy clothes, as if a juvenile mental hospital has opened.

      welcome home~!

      My childhood and school experiences made me feel that adults in suits are not good things when I was young, haha, it's also quite ridiculous. I've been asked even the weird questions that the male...

      Aftermath of "Secrets of Art School" - Maverick Blasphemy is Success

      Secret, as the name suggests, refers to something that is hidden and unknown; something or something that is hidden and unknown. And what I'm referring to here is only an open secret in my eyes. The funny thing is that the most obvious thing in human nature is self-deception. The protagonist in the movie is actually not very obvious. It is Jello, the unhappy diaosi who wants to become a great painter. In stark contrast to him, the undercover cop who actually doesn't understand art and blindly...

      This is a very easy cutlery

      The film is not too deep, but the plot and acting are very powerful.
      The opening and closing songs are great.
      The poor male protagonist always thought he was a genius, but was troubled by not knowing Bole.
      The male protagonist appears in the image of a weak boy, with affectionate and innocent eyes, thin body, and melancholy lips, which is very consistent with the image of an artistic youth.
      Then the cups happened, the quarrel with the classmates, the teacher's disapproval,...

      vitriolic humor

      Based on the comic book of the same name by Daniel Clowes, a poignant satire, Daniel Clowes drew material from his own art school experience, based on Brooklyn's Pratt Institute of Art, about how a group of snobbish students and mentors treated absurdly Art and treatment of creation: The ambiguity, uncertainty and deconstruction of modernism have become a fig leaf and a shield for the ignorance of teachers and students. They fool around with seemingly profound artistic concepts all day long,...

If he wants to become a famous painter, everything will come naturally, just like his idol Pablo Picasso , the whole world and all women are at his feet, and he will complete his transformation process in art school.

    Movie quotes

    • Bardo: The only trouble with that is: all those beatnik chicks are totally insane. Look. What you really want is a nice, innocent, suburban girl. Some freshman chick who hasn't been corrupted yet.

    • Marvin Bushmiller: Shut up. Look. There's really only one question any of you want to ask: you want to know what it would take to turn you into me. Well, listen closely, 'cause I'm gonna give you the answer. In order to be a great artist, you simply have to *be* a great artist. There's nothing to learn. So... you're all wasting your time. Go home.

    • Jerome: You were right about art. It's all about the cock-sucking.

      Jimmy: It's not what you do, but who you blow.
