I loved this dark, mysterious film. The story of caravagio is one that is different from other artist. He is one that didn't have a conventional upbringing. He started drawing in Nepals apposed to Italy and leisure in bars and the undesired portions of town unlike other great painters. Caravagio desired to paint life and realism instead of paintings that showed religion to be lifeless and angel like. Many of his commission paintings showed the religious beliefs in a different way than others, in a human sense, a way that we can relate to and understand in our daily lives. After becoming famous Caravagio became his own worst enemy, fighting and eventually killing a swordsman. In his final days he painted a great painting, his final self portrait. This self portrait showed Goliath holding Caravagios head. This portrait showed his inner conflict with himself and his sinful life. Caravagio died without the help of humans or mercy of the Gods.
