Reviews

The rare biopic of a visual artist that considers the dilemma of the art more seriously than it considers the drama of the life.

Kate Taylor, Globe and Mail

Rush gives one of his best-ever performances, which is saying a lot.

Final Portrait is a captivating portrait of a haunted but exhilarating artist and an unlikely friendship between two totally different men, bonding through the blessing and curse of the artistic process.
