The Lost Supper

About This Movie

The Lost Supper is this fascinating documentary that really digs into the complexities surrounding the restoration of Da Vinci’s The Last Supper. It captures the tension between art and preservation beautifully. Spector's approach is both intimate and broad, weaving interviews with art historians and restorers alongside stunning visuals of the fresco's decay and restoration process. The pacing at times feels almost meditative, reflecting the painstaking work involved. There’s a palpable uncertainty throughout—viewers are left questioning whether the restoration was a triumph or a disaster. It's this duality that makes the film resonate long after it ends. Plus, the atmosphere it creates is just so immersive; you can almost feel the weight of history hanging in the air.
