Review of Renoir

Renoir (2012)
7/10
From canvas to screen.

An interesting, complex, revealing story about the relationship between the painter, Renoir, one of his models, Andree, and one of his sons, Jean.

Jean Renoir returns to his father's house to recover from a wound obtained during the First World War. The painter's favoured model gradually grows close to Jean, which in turn provides us with an insight into the relationship between father and son as well. We see the beginnings of Jean Renoir's interest in filmmaking.

Beautifully filmed. A little aimless at times. Could have had a few more dramatic moments.
