Klimt - "Muse"
Gustav Klimt lived his life like he painted it - full of intensity, sensuality and passion. In this biographical fantasy by acclaimed director Raúl Ruiz (Time Regained), Klimt (John Malkovich) recalls the decadence of his past in feverish visions from his deathbed. Reflecting on his many torrid affairs and his struggles for artistic freedom, he travels back to the 1900 World Exhibition in Paris. There, Klimt is introduced to a mysterious dancer, Lea de Castro (Saffron Burrows), who emerges as his muse and the personification of his own erotic ideals and carnal desires.

in conversation with Kriss Ravetto-Biagioli, 27 November 2007
Trained as a painter, and having written over 100 plays before starting in the cinema, the Chilean filmmaker is one of the most prolific directors of the last 50 years. His films have been characterized as ironic, surrealistic and deeply experimental, and include Three Lives and One Death (1996) starring Marcello Mastroianni, Genealogies of a Crime (1997) with Catherine Deneuve, Le Temps retrouvé (1999) with Emmanuelle Béart and Klimt (2006) starring John Malkovich.
