[font=Century Gothic]"Rembrandt" starts out in 1642 in Amsterdam where Rembrandt von Rijn(Charles Laughton) is a famous and successful painter living with his ailing wife and son. He lives to paint what he loves which includes his beloved wife, Saskia, but he has been persuaded to take a commission to paint a portrait of the Royal Guard. His wife dies sending him into a deep depression. To make matters worse, his portrait is judged to be a failure, at least as far as the subjects are concerned.[/font] [font=Century Gothic][/font] [font=Century Gothic]"Rembrandt" is an early biopic, so I was pleasantly surprised to see that it concerned itself so much with artisitic integrity. Rembrandt simply wants to be in a position where he can paint what he pleases, damn the commercial value. True artsists create art for the pleasure of it, not for the money. And Charles Laughton is absolutely phenomenal.[/font]
