First of all, Finazzer Flory's portrayal of da Vinci is outstanding and convincing. The film offers a unique take on the Renaissance Genius - definitely off the beaten path of the usual da Vinci documentary or biopic. Flory uses da Vinci's own words garnered from original manuscripts to take us inside his mind and through his thought processes, reasoning, and opinions. It's almost like Flory made the impossible possible for the viewer. It's a film I think you need to see more than once - at least the interview segments - in order to really understand and digest what da Vinci had to say in response to the questions presented to him. Important and impactful because it reveals an entirely new and different aspect of The Genius than we're used to. The film is slow and cerebral, appropriately and on purpose.
