The film's special part (and its closing credits) was seeing the art of Audrey Amiss* and - for want of a word to describe them - her visual journals and their commentary on resemblance and form in what she kept, but we'd overlook / discard.

* And a local road-sign for Amiss 2. https://t.co/ZpOpXo8FoR
It’s a wonderful film, we loved it.

It’s rare in that it’s a film about art that gets it right. But it’s also beautiful about siblings and mental health .. the paintings are terrific.

Yes, that *was* meant to read 'a good fit', but I was too quick to Tweet and hadn't noticed. :) https://t.co/LRkTH71w2f

In the way that film's a referential medium [if not uniquely so], what else did it remind of ?
