2019
Computer Files, Websites
Frederick Wiseman’s NATIONAL GALLERY takes the audience behind the scenes of a London institution, on a journey to the heart of a museum inhabited by masterpieces of Western art from the Middle Ages to the 19th Century. NATIONAL GALLERY is the portrait of a place, its way of working and relations with the world, its staff and public, and its paintings. In a perpetual and dizzying game of mirrors, film watches painting watches film. Official Selection at the **Cannes Film Festival**, **Toronto International Film Festival**, and the **New York Film Festival**. Nominated for Best Documentary Film at the **César Awards**. *"Indeed, he’s America’s foremost practitioner of documentary-as-metaphor, building sweeping arguments of small details.” –Ben Kenigsberg, **RogerEbert.com*** *“This is one of Wiseman’s richest and most thought-provoking films, and easily one of his best.” –Budd Wilkins, **Slant Magazine***
