Finding Altamira (2016): Antonio Banderas and Paleolithic Cave Paintings


      Directed by Hugh Hudson, Finding Altamira (2016) was met with semi-favorable reviews by critics. The mostly true story focuses on the groundbreaking discovery of paleolithic cave paintings in the Cave of Altamira in Cantabria, Spain and the uproarious controversy it raised amongst the religious and scientific communities of the time. The cinematography is brilliant and the set design team did a great job recreating 19th Century period details. The cast does a good job, including Antonio Banderas as Marcelino Sanz de Sautuola y de la Pedrueca, Allegra Allen, Clement Sibony, Rupert Everett and the beautiful Golshifteh Farahani.
