Theodore “Theo” Decker was 13 years old when his mother was killed in a bombing at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. The tragedy changes the course of his life, sending him on a stirring odyssey of grief and guilt, reinvention and redemption, and even love. Through it all, he holds on to one tangible piece of hope from that terrible day… a painting of a tiny bird chained to its perch. The Goldfinch. (Warner Bros. US)

The Goldfinch wants to be a great story, but its creators found out too late that they couldn't cram everything into it. And yet they tried. The result is a film that wants to deal with a huge number of themes, but in the end has to deal with all of them only very superficially. It's a shame because, at least in the first half, it's a very well-made drama that also looks beautiful. The whole, however, is hardly satisfying.

Donna Tartt's book "The Goldfinch" is a Pulitzer Prize-winning bestseller, and both Stephen King and Michelle Obama like it. So that means everybody likes it. Or does it? The lavish 730-page novel was turned into a long film, which is filled with a number of unusual plots. The cast is interesting (Kidman and Sarah Paulson), and the story around the 17th-century painting is dynamic. Yet despite all the effort, it's still just a story situated around a painting. In parts, the locations are more attractive in Albuquerque than anything else. This brings us back to the primary function of film, to follow places in motion that are too remote for ordinary mortals.
