I often put on "Great Expectations" while I'm cleaning, knitting, dancing, cooking, whatever it may be, because the movie is just so damn beautiful to look at. Emmanuel Lubezki is one of my favorite cinematographers and he made this film into a moving painting. The art in the film is done by none other than the wonderful surrealist, expressionist, contemporary and all around freaking awesome artist, Francesco Clemente.
