The film quality of Julian Schnabel, the great painter, is really very good. The audio-visual quality, the quality of the times, and the quality of the characters are really full of specific temperature and touch. Javier Bardem's acting skills are unique and solid - the actor trusts and even believes in the director wholeheartedly, and the chemistry produced is moving. A long and moving masterpiece, the original music turned out to be Carter Powell, and the experimentalist Laurie Anderson participated. The movie is a lady, don't give her shivers, it is necessary.
