Degas and Pissario Fall Out

This film imagines the 19th century artists Edgar Degas and Camille Pissarro as they appear on a modern-day talk show. It explores their historic conflict surrounding the Dreyfus Affair, reflecting on both their artistic connection and political disagreements.

Paul Morrison's clever satire provides a commentary on the exploitation of historical figures in the media. The film features a strong cast, including Michael Pennington, Henry Goodman, Alison Steadman, Louise Jameson, and Peter Wingfield, all contributing to the engaging narrative.

As a part of a unique anthology series, Degas and Pissario Fall Out presents a distinct blend of art, history, and contemporary critique, making it a noteworthy piece for collectors of niche films and those interested in the intersection of art and politics.
