The Mystery of Picasso - Le mystère Picasso (1956)
Synopsis
Released shortly after Luciano Emmer’s documentary Picasso, H. G. Clouzot’s Le Mystère Picasso was an unmitigated commercial disaster — all the more tragic when one considers the groundbreaking nature of its content.
Like Emmer before him, Clouzot offers rare and precious glimpses of Pablo Picasso at work. The film watches Picasso draw or paint 15 different works, often via tightly-compressed, time-lapse cinematography.
All of the featured masterpieces were intentionally destroyed following production, meaning that they exist only in the cinematic realm.
With this documentary, Clouzot comes as close as humanly possible to defining the genius of Picasso within the parameters of the camera lens.
Oddly, Le Mystère Picasso does not appear on many of the “official” lists of Clouzot’s films, even though it won a Special Jury Prize at the Cannes Film Festival. -- allmovie guide
Cast: Pablo Picasso, Henri-Georges Clouzot, Claude Renoir
***** The Mystery of Picasso (French: Le mystère Picasso) is a 1956 French documentary film about the painter Pablo Picasso.
It shows Picasso in the act of creating paintings for the camera (which he subsequently destroyed so that they would only exist on film). It was directed by Henri-Georges Clouzot.
It won the Special Jury Prize at the 1956 Cannes Film Festival[1] and was shown out of competition at the 1982 Festival. -- Wikipedia
