Auguste Rodin (1840-1917), man of the people, autodidact and revolutionary sculptor - the most brilliant of his era. At 42, Rodin meets Camille Claudel, a young woman desperate to become his assistant. He quickly acknowledges her as his most able pupil, and treats her as an equal in matters of creation.
Acting
Lindon's bearish physicality makes Rodin feel monumentally, frustratingly human.
Cinematography
Clay-streaked flesh and workshop dust shot like Renaissance paintings.
