“The Burnt Orange Heresy” (La herejía de la Naranja quemada) sátira mordaz al mundo del arte
La película The Burnt Orange Heresy (La herejía de la naranja quemada), una sátira mordaz del mundo del arte contemporáneo.
“El filme es un examen acertado para el estatus actual de Miami como destino importante del mercado internacional del arte. Estilizado, erótico y sensual, deja intacto el humor intensamente negro y cruelmente irónico de Willeford” – expresó Jaie Laplante, director del Miami Film Festival.
Es la quinta adaptación cinematográfica de la obra del fallecido novelista de suspenso Charles Willeford bajo la dirección de director Giuseppe Capotondi y Scott Smith, guionista.
El filme cuenta con las actuaciones de Mick Jagger, Donald Sutherland, Elizabeth Debicki y Claes Bang.
More in English…
The late, great Miami writer Charles Willeford’s classic art world noir thriller The Burnt Orange Heresy has been updated by Italian filmmaker Giuseppe Capotondi and Academy Award-nominated screenwriter Scott Smith into a biting satire of the world of contemporary high art and the attendant, controversial role of art criticism that swirls around it.
Hired by an unscrupulous dealer (Mick Jagger) to steal a rare painting from one of most enigmatic painters (Donald Sutherland) of all time, an ambitious art critic becomes consumed by his own greed and insecurity as the operation spins out of control.
The Burnt Orange Heresy is swanky, steamy and sexy, with Willeford’s jet-black, cruelly-ironic humor firmly intact. Featuring smart, sly, and delightful performances from Jagger, Sutherland, Elizabeth Debicki and Claes Bang (The Square), The Burnt Orange Heresy is as visually stunning as it is thrilling.
