My blog reviews movies as political, historical or social commentary with intentional disregard for their artistic or cinematic value. One foe of American political scientists and economists is that they ignore movies as sources to inform them on changes in American culture, view exoticism as a hallmark of "foreigness" and, at the same time, impart American values and judgment to foreign movies.

Genius. Picasso.
Feeble series; even feebler than the last series about Einstein. The Einstein series leaving aside his science after c. 1919, were, at least, livened by the incomparable Geoffrey Rush (though, great and underrated Emily Watson was not given much of a go). But Picasso series, incoherent as they are, left his artistic development together with the brilliant Alex Rich, playing young Picasso. The rest of the series are only concerned with his womanizing, solid, but no match to the current President of the Unites States.
