Caravaggio

International Arthouse • 1h 30m

Directed by Derek Jarman | 93 mins | 1986
A brazenly anachronistic and sensual imagining of the life of Renaissance renegade Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio (Nigel Terry), seen juggling two lovers (Sean Bean’s Ranuccio and Tilda Swinton’s Lena) while scandalizing the establishment. The debut film for Swinton, who would collaborate with Jarman until his death in 1994, and one of the finest British films of the 1980s.
