About Caravaggio
A retelling of the life of the celebrated 17th-century Baroque painter Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio through his brilliant, nearly blasphemous paintings and his flirtations with the underworld.
Directed by Derek Jarman, Caravaggio leans on a strong ensemble — Nigel Terry, Sean Bean, Garry Cooper — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1986.
