I enjoyed this film which reveals where some of Rembrandt 's works are housed. Many, not surprisingly, reside in the homes of the uber rich of the world. It's a good documentary and also shows us that one billionaire likes to share his treasures with us less fortunate beings.
Although it's interesting to learn about the journey of Golden Age Rembrandt paintings in private collections, this documentary has no inner-life and didn't really enlighten me. It had fleeting moments of interest like the sections where the restorations and authentication tests were taking place, however, the constant preening of Jan Six dominated the documentary and all the money-grabbing controversy coverage was off-putting. More interesting were the philanthropists and the potential war between the Rijks and the Louvre when a pair of rare pieces came up for sale. It was a bit of a trudge as the drama was there, it's just the spotlight was cast upon the most uninteresting of the subjects. You could almost forget the focus of the documentary was supposed to be on Rembrandt and his art, and not the creepy, simpering Jan Six.
2 out of 10 - An expose of back-stabbing art-dealers in Amsterdam and beyond that focuses on ugly people and not beautiful paintings.
