So, this biopic from 2022 dives deep into the life of Paul Bellini, and it’s distinctly... well, Bellini. The tone is introspective, almost unsettling at times, as it captures his quirks and the struggles behind his genius. The pacing is a bit erratic but it feels intentional—like how his life unfolded. There are some interesting practical effects, especially in the reenactments that add a layer of authenticity. And those performances? They’re raw, bordering on unpolished, which works here. It’s not your typical biopic where everything’s neatly tied up; instead, it feels like you're experiencing the chaos of his mind. Definitely distinctive in its approach, you can see Bellini's hand in every frame.
