I could listen to Michael Horovitz for hours. He appears to have understood the essence of Bacon's work more deeply than most curators and critics I have read and heard on the subject. What a wonderfully erudite and creative person.
What comes across is honesty and an earnest attitude towards his peers. A bohemian in poetically prose... as matter of fact about Bacon as sure as eggs are eggs.
This film is a gem. Thank you for sharing it. Lately, I’ve been doing a lot of reading about Bacon, Lucian Freud, Michael Andrews and others. It’s interesting that they all endured the horror and anxiety of WW2. They did great work and knew how to have fun, to put it mildly!
@@afox1953 ‘Love is a Devil ‘ is an appallingly bad film; Bacon was not at all a camp queen like he was portrayed by that ham actor, Derek Jacobi ; and why was Tilda Swinton so polite as Muriel Belcher?

@@AlexanderVerney-Elliott-ep7dw Thanks- Will give it a well deserved body swerve then. Any movie with Craig featuring post Bond will always be difficult to digest. Typecasted? absolute- & perhaps for the better!

Thank you. Yes, there are quite a few connections between the London painters of that time.
So thankful to have all these perspectives and experiennces come together to add to Bacon's portrait.
Thank you.
