Bacon's Arena

Aroview: Truly 'definitive' portrait of 20th Century painter Francis Bacon, commissioned by his Estate to mark the centenary of his birth.

Dir. Low takes an honest approach to Bacon's life, including interviews with family and friends and drunken, argumentative archival interviews with the charismatic man himself. Accompanied by an excellent score by Brian Eno and bonus interviews with some of his equally fascinating contemporaries, this is the complete package for fans of the troubled artist.
