   Is 'taking Venice' a good documentary?

   • “Taking Venice” is a very good documentary, though with a hint of pearl-clutching. There’s a “We were shocked, shocked …” undercurrent to the whole thing. There are talking heads, like the art scholar Hiroko Ikegami, who suggest that the win by Rauschenberg was “engineered.”

   What makes 'taking Venice' a good movie?

   • “Taking Venice” wears out its welcome by making the movie seem conventionally exciting, hip, commercial. Motion graphics, re-creations, and digital additions and erasures in historical photos clutter up scenes and montages that would’ve been more impactful if we’d been able to contemplate the images as-is.

   • Yet the grand irony — and, you might say, the grand joke — of the 1964 Venice Biennale is that no rules were broken, and that the Americans were accused of using aggressive PR tactics (which they did) to push the artist who overwhelmingly deserved to win.
