Very intelligent and revelatory. I have been a painter all my life, and in my 50's when it came time to decorate my new bedroom, I found that I had grown sick of looking at my own work, and ordered canvas prints of three paintings from movies: Portrait of Carlotta from VERTIGO, Mary Meredith standing in the wind from THE UNINVITED ( 1944), and Captain Greg's (Rex Harrison) portrait from THE GHOST AND MRS MUIR. ( I almost chose the painting of Scarlett in a blue dress from GONE WITH THE WIND.) I have always been obsessed with movie paintings, so I love your channel. Please don't stop. The few deep thinking artists who come to TH-cam need you.
Not only was this an interesting and thoughtful meditation on painting within film I thought it was beautifully edited, seamlessly echoing the narrative.
"style as substance" made me yell, that's the best way I've heard so far to describe my taste in art and how I feel about abstract, modern, impressionist etc art in general. You've got a talent for words my friend
This is an excellent video essay. I love the insights. You should consider a part 2 and part 3 because there are many great movies with paintings and about paintings. A few definitely worth seeing are La Belle Noiseuse [long film by Jacques Rivette about inspiration and sacrifice], Life Lessons [short film by Scorsese], Museum Hours [Jem Cohen] and even the short section on Van Gogh in Dreams by Akira Kurosawa. The list goes on….
I'm only 40 seconds in and this video is incredible!! 🌟 Finished watching and all i have to add is "bravo!!" You a hundred percent captured something I feel and can't say, watching paintings in movies and frankly, in actual life... I am a frequent visitor to the galleries at the Palace of the Legion of Honor depicted here in Vertigo and there's still the whisper of Jimmy Stewart's ardor within them.
A stunning essay. How can this Painting Nerds have less than a thousand subscribers?! I predict great things for this channel. Thank you so much for uploading this.
This immediately made me think of a Sci-Fi short story by Brian W Aldiss called; Report on Probability A'. Some sort of scanner looks into different 'probabilities' and life seems to go slower in each one. The final probability (Probability A), is just a painting, where all the action is implied, but of course, nothing actually happens, because it is a painting,. It's not mentioned by name, but the book cover and descriptions make it plain they are referring to 'The Hireling Shepherd', by William Holman Hunt.
I remember seeing a picture of the Dorian Gray portrait in a book about horror movies in my grade school library. It scared me so bad I've never watched the movie, even though I'm now old enough to appreciate its overarching existential dread.
I really enjoyed this. The painting I would really love to own is the painting of a young Fanny Trellis that sits above the mantlepiece in the movie ‘Mr Skeffington’ ( my favourite Bette Davis movie ) The painting shows a Glamorous society figure (maybe in the style of or influenced by Sargent ) As Fanny ages the painting becomes a painful reminder of her lost youth and beauty.
I'm thinking of ending things is one of the best movies I have ever seen. Its an actual artistic rendition not just mere entertainment. I wish we could get more movies like that, movies where the content matches the form.
Amazing video! We definitely need a part 2! May I recommend some Takeshi Kitano (featuring his own child-like paintings in movies like Battle Royale, Kikujiro's Summer but most prominently in Hana-Bi), Peter Greenaway (where The Draughtman's Contract mirrors the murder mystery by painting from Trouble with Harry, and Nightwatching is a whole conspiracy theory about the intersection of art and reality) and maybe more Wes Anderson (The Royal Tenenbaums is full of paintings real and imagined, while The Grand Budapest Hotel has a very rare "painting McGuffin") and maybe also The Accountant (with its Dogs Playing Poker vs. Jackson Pollock theme) or The 1999 version of the Thomas Crowne Affair (with its clever Monet/Magritte games) or Amelie (where famous paintings come to life to comment on the plot but also a famous Renoir painting stands in for interpretations of real life).
Wonderful! I greatly enjoyed this presentation. I recognized many of the paintings and scenes from some of my favorite films and learned about knew ones I had never seen. Well done! :)

Congratulations.: a profoundly engaging and insightful essay, that will assist people, especially students of film for the few generations we have left on this planet as a civilized species. Its really that good, and you get a strong sense of how much work you both have put into the essay. I hope _______ people will understand how valuable all these things we have access to are and not to take them too easily for granted, like a portrait on a wall.
I am told by the artist who painted the General and his horse in Ken Russell's Savage Messiah that he completed within a week and it was still wet when it was being filmed. I think Paul Dufficey should get an honourable mention for that feat of mastery!
Bloody loved this! I also find entertaining the figure of Gene Kelly as An Amrican in Paris trying to make it as a painter- the works they used in that leave more to be desired......!!!
28:42“They’re the most overtly horrific movie paintings since Ivan Albright’s ‘Portrait of Dorian Gray.’” That is, if you don’t count the portrait painted by Mrs Anthony, Bruno Anthony’s mother (in reality painted by Ted Haworth, the film’s art director), revealing her to be somewhat off her rocker, in Alfred Hitchcock’s 1951 _Strangers on a Train._
That painting does feature briefly in the video. We see it being more darkly comical than horrifying, but would certainly think twice about hanging it in the living room...
@@paintingnerds Now that you mention it that painting _does_ seem darkly comic-and I have to say I often appreciate the perverse sense of humor in Hitchcock’s films even more than I like the suspense, I think-but the music accompanying the “reveal” seems (to me, at least) to indicate that Hitchcock wants us to read it as horrifying. (Even Hitchcock would not have used music like that ironically. If that were the case, that reveal becomes hilarious.) I wouldn’t have wanted to hang it in my living room, either, but if we reframe it (no pun intended, really) as “darkly comic,” maybe I would. (And it’s a piece of cinematic history, after all.)
How did I not realise the painting in Frozen with the woman on the swing, disney doesn't highlight anything but how Anna copys her in the swing but a woman with two lovers swinging between them, while Anna does a similar thing, so subtle I hope it was intentional 😊
This went straight to my favorites playlist. As someone else commented you should do part 2, part 3 and so on. One suggestion: The bird with crystal plumage by Dario Argento.
Great video! Apparently one of the pastiches in Kubrick’s 2001 was previously used in Hitchcock’s The Man Who Knew Too Much (sorry if you touched on this and I missed it)
Also, your jump cut from David Bowman's room to the Roger Moore film at 30:48 was shocking! I really felt the disconnect of this anachronistic affectation. Did Bowman's hosts recognized this art as the idyllic representation of human aspiration? This is really fascinating!
FANTASTIC LOVED IT GREAT DOCUMENTARY I WILL BE LOOKING FOR THIS IN FUTURE WHILE WATCHING MOVIES ..AND I WILL WATCH ANY OF THE MOVIES FEATURED IN THIS THAT I HAVE NOT ALREADY SEEN... GREAT STUFF, KEEP IT UP !!!
I have a painting from the 1939 movie "Another Thin Man" starting William Powell & Myra Loy..2 guys use run the props back in the day brought their wares up north from Hollywood to Sebastopol had the picture looked at the provenance in the movie its shown 3 different times I wish I could post it here...cheers mates 😀
this is a great video :) One of my favorite films is The Thomas Crown Affair. a film obsessed with the way in which someone's entire identity can be summed up in one painting.
my favorite set of paintings created for a film is the wife's body of work in the Charlie Kaufman movie Synecdoche. If you do a part 2 Id love to hear your take on it! Happy to discover this channel and looking forward to more. Subscribed before the video was half way through :)

Thank you for mentioning John Decker. That artist's life is worth a movie in it's self!
A stunning essay. How can this Painting Nerds have less than a thousand subscribers?! I predict great things for this channel. Thank you so much for uploading this.
Thanks - we hope so!
Superb subject! Absolutely delicious! ❤
Wonderfully inter-juxtapositioned
I've had a stressful day. This was perfect to bring my thoughts to a better place.
That's lovely to hear :)

Fantastic video, so glad to have found your channel.
Thank you so much!!! Please continue!
Thank you for this video on behalf of artists, art lovers and cinema fans. 👌
Nice work, gentlemen. A fascinating and beautiful video essay. Thoroughly enjoyed.
Me personally, j was always so captivated and OBSESSED with the paintings in Fellini's films
While watching this immediately, I thought about the picture of Dorian Gray, and then my mind popped to Laura🎨
This immediately made me think of a Sci-Fi short story by Brian W Aldiss called; Report on Probability A'. Some sort of scanner looks into different 'probabilities' and life seems to go slower in each one. The final probability (Probability A), is just a painting, where all the action is implied, but of course, nothing actually happens, because it is a painting,.
It's not mentioned by name, but the book cover and descriptions make it plain they are referring to 'The Hireling Shepherd', by William Holman Hunt.
Cool!
my personal favorite is boy with apple from the grand budapest hotel :)
Excellent video
Excellent work. Love the soundtrack.
I remember seeing a picture of the Dorian Gray portrait in a book about horror movies in my grade school library. It scared me so bad I've never watched the movie, even though I'm now old enough to appreciate its overarching existential dread.

Excellent work! I love your mise en place of the cards on the velvet cloth; very creative
Excellent !!!
The coolest thing ever to pop up on my youtube feed.
Oh my God. This was an amazing video. Thank you!
Wow just wow, amazing 👏👏👏
Wonderful video, great job
Fascinating. Sincerely fascinating.
So good, loved this! Insightfully and intelligently narrated and beautifully edited. Excellent work!
Simply marvellous - thank you.
Now having to correct myself... The hotel's motto is "A Day or a Lifetime". Makes quite a difference... ;-))
I'm thinking of ending things is one of the best movies I have ever seen. Its an actual artistic rendition not just mere entertainment. I wish we could get more movies like that, movies where the content matches the form.
Very good and well produced. Thank you.
Excellent documentary. So well done. A lot of work went into this.
Thank younI enjoyed this a lot really well put together. Look forward to your next video

Blessed by the algo today with this video essay. Now I get to say I was here from the start :) Excellent work.
Golly! You're too kind :) Thanks so much for watching.
I loved it, I'm going to look all those movies
Fascinating video! And I remember the opening scene where two people 'enter' a painting -- with dire results for the innocent one....
Please tell me the name of that film. Thank you.
Outstanding!
This video was amazing. Well done . 🙂👍
Wonderful, wonderful! Thank you! 🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️❤️🇦🇺🦘❤️❤️❤️

To have comprised a direct correlation along with research and good editing; is this art imitating art? Dam right! Brilliant.
One of my favorites: *_The Good Thief._*
Very interesting view of masterpieces and a great job 🎉🤟🏻😍Thanks a lot!
Thank you!
Thank you. Very interesting and informative.
i would die to go see an art gallery filled with only paintings that were painted to be in films. I want to see the Dirk Diggler painting.
Congratulations.: a profoundly engaging and insightful essay, that will assist people, especially students of film for the few generations we have left on this planet as a civilized species.

Thank you for the video. I enjoyed it greatly! 😊❤
I really enjoyed this video .! Imaginative art, in it’s own way. Thank you !
Absolutely incredible video, PN. Thank you for creating and sharing it with us.
just adding engagement! this is really good, thank you for the insight and research!

Impressive. Most impressive.
Wonderful film! Merci :)
I have a painting from the 1939 movie "Another Thin Man" starting William Powell & Myra Loy..2 guys use run the props back in the day brought their wares up north from Hollywood to Sebastopol had the picture looked at the provenance in the movie its shown 3 different times I wish I could post it here...cheers mates 😀
I loved this! Was hoping to see Mr Turner and Death of Stalin but I’ll wait for a part 2
thank you
Super work; well done. Was hoping there would be a reference to The Rebel. The films you have chosen would make an excellent season.
'A self portrait of who...?' :P Love The Rebel
i love this
this is a great video :)
One of my favorite films is The Thomas Crown Affair. a film obsessed with the way in which someone's entire identity can be summed up in one painting.
I'm just here for ghost busters 2. lol jk. Great video, thanks for sharing.

Nice video. I suggest "The Burnt Orange Heresy" for exploring the meaning of an artist's work for the audience.
Thanks for the recommendation - will check it out!
Yes!!!
