Loved it! I can't wait to return to the Musee D'Orsay after reading about Manet and the rest of the impressionists.

<u><b>The Judgment of Paris</b>
The Revolutionary Decade That Gave the World Impressionism</u>
...if you're an art wonk (not that there's anything wrong with that).

Ah, but the movie is no good compared to the book---they left out a lot, expecially the political intrigue.
We tried to find the "original", where everyone speaks their own language (French, German, and English), but were unsuccessful.
