So, there's this documentary, 'Paul Delvaux: The Sleepwalker of Saint Idesbald,' from '87—it's a real deep dive into the mind of Paul Delvaux, a surrealist painter who's often overshadowed by his peers. The film captures his contemplative nature, as he reflects on his past and the evolution of his artwork. The pacing is leisurely, almost dreamlike, which feels fitting given the surreal themes of his work. You get a real sense of his personal life, too—his family, his inspirations. It's not flashy, but the atmosphere is rich with Delvaux's introspective thoughts, making it distinctive in its quiet reverence for the artist's journey.
