Painters
Often, dramatic biographical movies about artists can't help but strike a false note. After all - you don't get to see much art being made. WNYC's Sara Fishko points to one film - a documentary - that actually fills the screen with art in progress. (Produced in 2000)
Henri-Georges Clouzot's 1956 documentary The Mystery of Picasso plays at Film Forum March 1-7.
