Art Related Movies on Netflix and Amazon

Posted in blog

My husband and I decided that we were going to see, ” Loving Vincent,” it’s incredibly rare that we go to a movie together, in fact, to the best of our memory we’ve only gone to the movies a handful of times in our 13 years together. We walked the mile to the theater, marched up the stairs, and were greeted by a sign that said, ” SOLD OUT.” So we turned around, and walked back home, deciding that we would find something on Amazon Prime, snuggle on the couch and watch on a small laptop screen( we don’t have a TV), instead of the BIG movie screen we’d planned.

 

It usually takes us forever to decide what we want to watch? Do you know the feeling? So in case the next movie that you want to see is sold out, or in the event that you just want to stay home. Here’s a list of art related movies.

Note: As with all things that I recommend, before showing any of these movies in your art room, please watch first. Some are good for students, some are okay for some, and well a few you just don’t want to show in school, but I like you, the art teacher, to make that call for what’s best for you, your students, and the population where you work.
