Key item features

In 1981, a nineteen-year-old unknown graffiti writer took the New York art world by storm. The rest is art history. "Jeffrey Wright is absolutely brilliant in the role of Jean-Michel Basquiat, the young American painter whose brief life spanned the explosion of money and fame that colored the art world in the 1980s... It's a terrific film, a remarkable first feature by Julian Schnabel... and the performances by Jeffrey Wright, so tender, so restrained, so charismatic, is a great piece of work, certainly worthy of Oscar consideration... it's one of the year's best movies. I know I'll see it again very soon... two thumbs up, way up for Basquiat..." Gene Siskel.

Being a fan of the late Jean-Michel Basquiat, I find this film to be so far apart of who he really was. Although the acting is great, the film it's self suffers. Basquiat was a extraordinary artist and a true legend. I just dont feel that this film captures that.
