Rodin: The Gates of Hell is a fascinating dive into the world of Auguste Rodin and his ambitious project that spanned decades. The documentary captures a haunting atmosphere, reflecting the weight of despair and passion found in Rodin's work. The pacing allows for contemplative moments where you can really absorb the intricacies of each figure, as nearly 200 characters come to life, evoking themes of suffering and transcendence. The practical effects might not be your typical flashy fare, but they enhance the understanding of Rodin’s techniques and struggles. It’s a unique exploration of an artist’s vision—there's a rawness to it that you don't see often in art documentaries today.
