Artists are human beings, too

This portrait of Auguste Rodin runs very slowly with lots of time to savor limited aspects of the sculptor, especially his comportment with women. I though that I was being harsh in giving the film a rating of 6, but then I saw that the average at imdb is under 5! I am not sure what the point here was, since Camille Claudel is a great film which gives much more insight into the relationship between the artist and his most famous student/lover. The impression one comes away with is that artists can be just like everybody else and are not really so special as human beings. It's just that they leave works behind, some of which come to be heralded as great, usually posthumously.

The cinemnatography was often very good, but I found the fade ins and fade outs between scenes somewhat disruptive of the flow of the story, to the extent that there was one

A beautiful and fleshy story of a human

The film "Rodin" was able to convey a multilayered picture of the life as it is; not always beautiful and smooth, but fragmented and rough. The closer the viewer got to the main characters the moe it was possible to feel their personal agonies. For me, the movie followed very closely the way Rodin presented his sculptures in all their fleshiness. Acting was mainly superb, but for me Lindon underplayed his role. Cinematography was absolutely beautiful and the music fit the overall ambience. I would have liked to have seen a bit more focus on Camille Claudel, portrayed bu Higelin, but of course she deserves her own movie. The ending was absolutely excellent.

The director - successfully reconstructed the complex relationship with the confidante, and lover - Camille Claudel.

The director chose to tell about the life of the sculptor August Rodin from a different perspective. The film begins in the middle of the sculptor's life. After a difficult period, he acquired a positive reputation around his work, and the French government invites work inspired by Dante. director successfully reconstructs the complex relationship with his colleague, lover, and confidante - Camille Claudel. The film has all the ingredients for success - passion, love, and tension, so I do not agree with the low grade received by the film. In conclusion: I think the film met expectations, was true to the original, focused on the processes surrounding the artist's life.
