Agonia e Êxtase
aiutante di Michelangelo
Charlton Heston e Rex Harrison interpretam duas das personalidades mais marcantes da Renascença neste drama histórico baseado no best-seller de Irving Stone ambientado no início do Século XVI. Quando o Papa Júlio II encomenda a Michelangelo a pintura do teto da Capela Sistina, o artista recusa a princípio. Virtualmente forçado por Júlio a fazer o trabalho, ele acaba por destruir sua obra e foge de Roma. Quando recomeça a pintura, o projeto se torna uma batalha de vontades alimentada pelas diferenças artísticas e de temperamento que são o ponto central deste filme. Indicado ao OSCAR® de Melhor Fotografia e também citado como um dos melhores filmes do ano pelo National Board of Review, AGONIA E ÊXTASE é uma fantástica dramatização da luta por trás de uma das maiores obras-primas do mundo. Tanto a história quanto o filme são tocantes e fascinantes.
