1. It's an impressive film about quiet desperation and obsession.It's an impressive film about quiet desperation and obsession.
2. There is nothing illegal in his puffery, though clearly gift horses really should be looked in the mouth for better authentication and not waste staff time or museum space.
3. A documentary about Mark Landis, a meek, eccentric Southerner who donated hundreds of his forged artworks to museums but never tried to make money off them.
4. An object lesson in how to make a good documentary
5. A thoroughly enjoyable and fascinating documentary about Landis' amazing feats as a forger and con man.
6. It's hard to dislike a guy who, at his worst, is a man (as Landis puts it) on a "philanthropic binge."
7. This documentary about one of the most prolific forgers in history is a fascinating character study of two men, the forger, a man compelled to copy works of art and pass them off as originals, and the man compelled to stop him from from doing that.
8. The moviemakers have created a unique portrait of a highly unusual, gifted oddball who is -- unlike his paintings -- a true original.
9. Operating out of a crummy lifelong bachelor's apartment, this prolific art forger is an unassuming and even sympathetic mastermind. With his tall, thin frame and baldish head, he resembles an El Greco Eisenhower, accessorized with Alfred E. Neuman ears.
10. An insightful glimpse into mental illness and an obsession with fame. Just the story of a mild-mannered con man with issues. A film worth viewing.
Based on these individual reviews, what is the critic consensus?
The spotlight it shines on an apparently troubled mind may strike some viewers as exploitative, but Art and Craft remains a thoroughly gripping glimpse into the life of a legendary art forger.
1. Det är en imponerande film om tyst desperation och besatthet.Det är en imponerande film om tyst desperation och besatthet. 2. Det finns inget olagligt i hans puffery, även om tydligt gåva hästar verkligen bör letas i munnen för bättre autentisering och inte slösa personal tid eller museum utrymme. 3. En dokumentär om Mark Landis, en ödmjuk, excentrisk sydstatare som donerade hundratals av sina förfalskade konstverk till museer men aldrig försökte tjäna pengar på dem. 4. Ett objekt lektion i hur man gör en bra dokumentär 5. En mycket trevlig och fascinerande dokumentär om Landis fantastiska bedrifter som förfalskare och bedragare. 6. Det är svårt att ogilla en kille som, som värst, är en man (som Landis uttrycker det) på en "filantropisk binge". 7. Denna dokumentär om en av historiens mest produktiva förfalskare är en fascinerande karaktärsstudie av två män, förfalskaren, en man som tvingas kopiera konstverk och föra bort dem som original, och mannen tvingades hindra honom från att göra det. 8. Filmskaparna har skapat ett unikt porträtt av en mycket ovanlig, begåvad udda boll som är -- till skillnad från hans målningar -- ett sant original. 9. Den här rika konstförfalskaren är ett anspråkslöst och sympatiskt geni. Med sin långa, tunna ram och sitt skalliga huvud liknar han en El Greco Eisenhower, som är försedd med Alfred E. Neuman-öron. 10. En insiktsfull glimt av psykisk sjukdom och en besatthet av berömmelse. Bara historien om en mild man med problem. En film värd att titta på.
