"Of course, and I feel funny explaining that I meant the majority of those who appreciate the art."
Don't feel funny.:)My point about Van Gogh, Welles, Vermeer and many others whom we have no idea of still stands. Where was the majority of those who appreciate art when Van Gogh painted, when Soutine and Modigliani were painting their best? I mean it's not like they were hiding their works, or burning them(Soutine did when he became rich eventually); I specifically made these three an example, because they lived amongst artists, critics and art lovers(the majority of which appreciate art, or say they do). Problem is in access; it's impossible to see something that you don't know exists. That's why I buy a lot of records of people whose works I don't know or know by association. It's fun.
I don't know Bloodgood and Innes. Who are they?
I'm sorry you felt so strongly about the film. It's OK. Perhaps it's a bit more personal for both of us than we think...
