If you loved Scandal, try Caravaggio

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Theysit in Drama / History / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to Scandal, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Caravaggio is

Jarman does his usual trick of filming a historical biopic that seems to take place in 1986. Caravaggio's sexuality and violent temper are showcased alongside the creation of his most famous works. It all looks rather gorgeous, even if it's not especially insightful.
