Klimt

The most important and critical scene to the understanding of the film Klimt was when Klimt had his first of two meetings he had with the doctor. If you had not been paying attention very closely to their conversation you would have missed a very subtle and very easily missed remark made about Klemt having syphilis. Knowing this critical little bit of information makes all the crazy events and appearances of a man that isn't there make sense, for Klimt is going crazy due to his illness. The sound of the dripping water when there is no water there, and his erratic actions add to the confusion to a viewer that did not pick up on that critical bit of information slid into a small scene. Simply put, without that scene, none of the rest of the movie makes enough sense to be correctly understood. But seeing as how it is not supposed to be understood in the usual manner as an art film, so knowing the condition of Klimt would have made the film immensely more difficult to understand than it already was. No other scene was nearly as important to the film than the one explaining his illness and without that scene the film simply would not work.
