The Burnt Orange Heresy

Sleek, engrossing but ultimately weak "The Burnt Orange Heresy" feels like it could've been a fantastic caper but falls flat.In this thriller, hired to steal a rare painting, an ambitious art dealer becomes consumed by his own greed and insecurity as the operation spins out of control.

Good storyline & great actors w/very thin character-building, wasting all that good acting & Scenery on emptiness - disappointment.

The real artists are BS artists in this story. Everyone is a scammer and a liar.

Storylines don't always play out like you wish them to. This one is a modified art heist & forgery plot w/a couple of warps that aren't framed for the pollyanna POV.

"The Burnt Orange Heresy" is an intriguing character-driven film. Despite the small cast and the limited scope, the depth of characterization was compelling, and the film was stylishly conceived around the esoteric world of modern art.

Art forgery. murder.

I enjoyed The Burnt Orange Heresy film it looks very pretty and has some nice dialogue. All the cast were good and Mick Jagger was a surprise in that he played his part very well.

Claes Bang is the unfulfilled writer/art critic "James Figueras" who makes his living lecturing and duping wealthy tourists to Italy. At one such talk, he hooks up with the gorgeous Elizabeth Debicki "Berenice" and he takes her to the estate of wealthy art dealer "Joseph Cassidy" (Sir Mick Jagger) who is determined to get hold of a painting by the legendary, but reclusive "Jerome Debney" (Donald Sutherland) who lives on his Lake Como property.

The mark of Cain lies in a fingerprint!Debicki and Bang are eye candy for the viewer in the early part of the film.
