This film is a bit of a fable, a bit Hitchcock horror; and it throws in a supernatural surreal twist. Very entertaining and visually macabre if a bit overly slow in spots.
Initially it begins as a modern celebrity manga creator heads to the Louvre in search of a painting with his publicist. But it soon has many twists and turns as the origin of the painting, its creator, its fake and that creator, and the various ways all the paintings' owners and creators lives connect, take the story through many portals and emotions.
The enigma of a haunting girl and the obsession of finding the blackest black in a painting that holds a dark and conviluted path through history.
Really hope that someone will list the musicians from the score; some really nice musical choices.
