Sin	comment	Sin (Russian: Ð“Ñ€ÐµÑ…; Italian: Il peccato â€“ Il furore di Michelangelo) is a 2019 Russian-Italian historical biopic film directed by Andrei Konchalovsky. Most of the cast is Italian.The film depicts a few years of the life of one of the most famous artistic figures of the Italian Renaissance, painter and sculptor Michelangelo Buonarroti (played by Alberto Testone), in the early 16th century.Michelangelo is depicted as a pious and argumentative artist who, although widely considered a genius by his contemporaries, is reduced to poverty and depleted by his struggle to finish the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel. While painting the ceiling, he is also pressured to simultaneously complete the statues which are part of the tomb designed and intended for Pope Julius II. He then goes back and forth between the cities of Florence, Rome and Carrara, juggles the money he received for his orders and goes extracting a huge block of marble as the power feuds between Italian noble families of The City State Era intensify. When Julius II dies, Michelangelo finds himself caught in the middle of said feuds, since his artistic genius is sought after by each side. He also has strange visions through it all.See also The Agony and the Ecstasy, another film that explores Michelangelo's tribulations at the time, focusing solely on the Sistine Chapel situation.

Sin / int_1206d299	comment	Can't Kill You, Still Need You: Francesco Maria Della Rovere makes it very clear to Michelangelo (who's kind of a scoundrel when it comes to money, though it's partly because his family ruins him) that the only reason he's still alive is because of his artistic genius.

For Rome/the Vatican, it's either the Castel Sant'Angelo or the districts built over Roman ruins, and for Florence it's either the Palazzo Vecchio (complete with Michelangelo's own David) or the Santa Maria del Fiore cathedral.

Sin / int_26f68115	comment	Art Imitates Art: When Michelangelo comes to see a Medici cardinal, there's a lady with an ermine in her arms standing in the room. This is of course a reference to the famous painting by Leonardo da Vinci. It is dubious however that she could be Cecilia Gallerani, the portrait's alleged model and the mistress of Duke of Milan Ludovico "il Moro" Sforza. The actress' age kind of matches, but Gallerani lived in Milan while the scene takes place in Rome. The painting was made over 25 years prior by this point.

Michelangelo already struggles to finish painting the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel at the beginning, but then Pope Julius II orders him to sculpt an absurd amount of statues for a monumental tomb for himself. Then, while searching for a block of marble in Carrara, he decides to draw the young Maria for a future work.

Sin / int_a6cf260b	comment	Making the Masterpiece: A very unusual angle was chosen by the filmmaker here, might as well qualify as a slight subversion. At no point is Michelangelo seen sculpting something (much like the eponymous protagonist of Andrei Rublev by Konchalovsky's friend and influence Andrei Tarkovsky was never showed painting anything). At best, he polishes the knee of his Moses. The crux of the film is his struggle to make the sculptures of Julius II's tomb as he's caught in-between power changes (the Medici family displacing the Della Rovere for the control of the Holy See and Italy after Julius II's death), and the work in the marble quarry (because yes, all that marble has to come from somewhere).

This is partly because he knows that members of his family will squander his wealth, but it's also due to his belief in living a simple, almost monastic life and devoting himself entirely to his artwork.
