It's a movie about art that kills you (and of course all the assholes in the art market who join in along the way). We've got bisexual Jake Gyllenhaal. We've got neurotic John Malkovich. We've got absolutely magic (and gay) Rene Russo! What more could you want? If you answer was murderous monkeys, well, somehow you're in luck.
