CGiii Comment

A Derek Jarman film is an acquired taste.
 
Isaac Julien is a filmmaker for those that have acquired a taste for mediocrity.
 
There nothing much to this - spliced together film clips, a wandering Tilda and a dissected interview with Jarman...
 
Anyone, who likes Jarman's work, could have completed this jigsaw - and, sorry, Tilda you don't add much to the proceedings.

For the aficionadi only.

The(ir) Blurb...

A film involving two courageous and innovative artists - one the subject and one the filmmaker-provides a cinematic journey that illuminates the work and enduring importance of the late Derek Jarman.
