12/15/2016 1/27/17 Netflix One of the reasons I enjoy documentaries so much is they are generally entertaining but also informative. This one could have been more informative on Bosch and his life and a little less so on the bureaucratic wrangling among museums. I have always been a fan of Bosch's art and this gave a pretty in depth look at the people, demons, fires and owls he is famous for. They showed more of his myriad characters than the naked eye can usually capture which I really liked. A little more art and a little less business would have been a better film.

It needed a good journalist perspective, the questions of who, what, where, and why were always left unanswered. Half the time avenues that the film went down were left unexplored, so you are lost much of the time trying to figure out what the film was trying to tell you. A great missed opportunity not to explore the people, the methods, and the life behind the artist and those trying to decipher his work. See more Read all reviews
