Master documentarian Frederick Wiseman takes us inside the National Gallery for a privileged look that deepens our appreciation for art and its upkeep. Like many of Wiseman’s films (At Berkeley), it is a portrait of a place—its way of adapting to the digital age; its staff, who radiate knowledge and passion; and the paintings of Da Vinci, Vermeer and Turner (to name a few), which continue to raise fascinating historical questions about religion, aesthetics, and society. D: Frederick Wiseman, US, 2014, 181m
