Customer Reviews:
Goya In Bordeaux.......2006-01-29
Truly excellent movie. The photography makes one believe one is looking at a moving Goya painting. Really first rate.
The human side of a genius.......2006-01-22
The society tends to think of artists as selfish, solitary and detached from reality. "Goya in Bordeaux" shows the surprisingly human and sympathetic side of the great artist. The film is not just about Goya's genius. It's about his earthly loves. After a lifetime of moderate promiscuity, Goya settles down into unexpectedly conventional domesticity with his wife and daughter. His concern for his family is genuine and tender. Goya agrees to discontinue his disturbing paintings, because they scare his daughter.
Invaluable treasure Spanish Film!.......2005-04-25
The legitimate pride of Huelva -Carlos Saura- reached a cosmic height with this unbeatable artwork in a theatrical stage around the last days of Goya in Bordeaux. The picture elapses in two well definite times and spaces: the young Goya and his love affair with La Duquesa de Alba, his beloved and unforgettable love Cayetana.
The cast is incredible. Francisco Rabal that monumental actor got perhaps his most admirable feature through his memorable career. Jose Coronado as the young Goya is impressive, and the sensual Maribel Verdú ignites the screen every time she appears.
An introspective portrait in which the memories are the invisible fellow partners, despite he is surrounded and supported by her family until his last breath.
All the Prizes for this film were deservedly won. Consider this film as one of the best ten Spanish films ever filmed.
A superb masterpiece.
It isn't only about Goya, but Goya-via-Saura.......2005-03-08
Not only is "Goya in Bordeaux" a movie *about* Goya, his life, and his times, but it is also another movie *by* Carlos Saura. To fully appreciate this movie, it helps not only to have a little knowledge of Spanish history (19th c.), art, and music, but also to have seen other Carlos Saura movies (Bodas de sangre/Blood Wedding, El amor brujo, Carmen, Flamenco, and Tango--all of which I recommend). It is a Saura specialty to mix music, choreography, stage settings, real life and lives, and inner turmoil into a frankly confusing recursive pastiche of story-within-story, life-imitating-art-imitating-life, and so on, to the point where the viewer can become thoroughly confused. The proper attitude for the viewer is "Well, I may not understand where we're going but any trip with Saura is well worth the effort." On top of that, he is (my opinion) the greatest of all dance cinematographers. While "Goya in Bordeaux" somewhat de-emphasizes dance as dramatic narrative when compared to Saura's other movies, the fandango scene itself is worth the price of admission.
love goya.......2004-07-04
i don't watch too many foreign films, not really my kind of thing, but this is easily one of my favorite movies. has a wonderful look to it. if you like foreign movies you should check this out.
