Horse's Mouth, The
Aroview: This impressively subtle portrait of a tortured artist stars Alec Guinness as a deteriorating painter whose pursuit of creative perfection has him on a path to self-destruction.
Guinness also wrote the screenplay and performs tremendously, though never once monopolises proceedings, allowing other finer aspects of the film to break through.

4 stars (Very Good) Extremely entertaining and thoughtful. Gritty galley sink tale of art vs life. ~stve
4 stars (Very Good) A great novel emerges as a delightful movie. (That doesn't always happen!) Alec Guinness in sparkling form. ~Shorty
