... the entire film is designed to look like a Rembrandt canvas, right down to the careful composition of the players within the frame.

Reviews for Nightwatching
What truly galls is that Greenaway has the germ of a great movie here.
A rambling, theatrical, frequently didactic study of a turning point in the Dutch painter's life.
Like making a biopic about Michelangelo and casting Benny Hill in the lead role.
...the dialogue's hyper-intensity is the whole point, and Greenaway frames it with a heavy reliance on set design, rather than his usual use of overlapping images.
