Boogie Woogie (film)

Boogie Woogie is a 2009 British black comedy film directed by Duncan Ward and produced by Eric Eisner and Leonid Rozhetskin. It is based on the 2000 novel of the same name by Danny Moynihan, who adapted his own book on the New York art world of the 1990s and titled it based on the unfinished 1944 Piet Mondrian painting Victory Boogie-Woogie.

Plot
Boogie Woogie is a comedy of manners, its cast of characters devouring each other in a small world awash with big money. Set against the backdrop of contemporary London and the international art scene, it casts an eye over the appetites and morality of some of its major players. Dealers, collectors, artists, and wannabes vie with each other in a world in which success and downfall rest on a thin edge. ==Cast==

Reception
Richard Clayton—in a Sunday Times article about the film that focuses on "who inspired its unsavoury characters"—called it "The Devil Wears Prada and Hangs Out at Private Views, but with a lot more sex and naughty bits." The Daily Beast called it a "dead-on satire of the contemporary art world that is loved by the very audience it savages." Rex Reed called it a "tepid spoof that only occasionally evokes a reluctant smile" and said it "failed to capture the nuances or craft a more brutal, incisive exposé of the art milieu." ==References==
