Boogie Woogie

"Seduction. Betrayal. Death. There's an Art to Everything."

2009-06-26 Comedy 1hr 34m

In London's contemporary art world, everyone has a hustle. Art Spindle runs a high-end gallery: he hopes to flip a Mondrian for millions. One of his assistants, Beth, is sleeping with Art's most acquisitive client, Bob Macclestone. Beth wants Bob to set her up in her own gallery, so she helps him go behind Art's back for the Mondrian. Bob's wife, Jean, sets her eye on a young conceptual artist, Jo, who lusts after Art's newest assistant, Paige. Meanwhile, self-absorbed videographer Elaine is chewing her way through friends and lovers looking to make it: if she'll throw Dewey, her agent, under the bus, Beth may give her a show. And the Mondrian? No honor among thieves.

Bad watch, probably won't watch again, and can't recommend. There are so many good actors in this movie, and I watched it specifically because it was a movie with Amanda Seyfried about which I hadn't heard. I understand that it had a point (sort of), but it did feel like there was somewhat unnecessary fan service with her and Heather Graham, and they are unfortunate highlights of the movie. This is all about the "art world", which means it's not about art, the quality / value of at all: it's all about capitalism, so it becomes an business / politics movie. It's all about these people we don't know or care about diddling each other and trying to out extort each other. It would be more interesting if it was a nature documentary. Watching rich people shuffle money about for no reason just isn't interesting to me. And if I never hear Danny Huston laugh like that again, then my life will be better.
