The tragic story of French naïve painter Séraphine Louis aka Séraphine de Senlis (1864-1942), a humble servant who becomes a gifted self-taught painter. Discovered by prominent critic and collector William Uhde, she came to prominence between the wars grouped with other naïve painters like Henri Rouseau only to descend into madness and obscurity with the onset of the Great Depression and World War II.

Moreau is bewitching -- she simply breathes her role, without a hint of vanity.

上帝赋予她非凡的绘画技能,却让她在生活里备受煎熬,最后活生生被逼疯了,这大概也是无数艺术家的写照,死后才出名的魔咒。遇到伍德是她的幸运也是不幸,给了她生活的支持却给不了那份情谊,“先生您知道吗?当我非常悲伤时,我就到野外去,我会摸摸树,跟鸟、花、虫子讲讲话,心情就会变好。”

Kenneth Turan · Los Angeles Times 100.00/100.00

What makes Seraphine, directed and co-written by Martin Provost, so exceptional is that it neither condescends to nor romanticizes its subject.
