**The Mill and the Cross** is an entertaining art history lesson that looks at many phases of putting oil on canvas. The film opens with the models being positioned, while Bruegel (Hauer) provides commentary about character placement. While the suffering of the Christ is the focal point, Bruegel explains why he hides Jesus in the painting while the 100 character vie for the spotlight. A hit at last year's Sundance Film Festival, **The Mill and the Cross** is the next best thing to going to an art museum this weekend.

"The Mill and the Cross" is an transformative motion picture.
