MIKE// WATCHES Have you seen In Bruges? The film begins with a hit on a priest gone wrong, which eventually leads two hitmen to Bruges, Belgium to await further instructions. As the two men walk through the city, awaiting further instructions, we see art like The Judgement of Cambyses by Gerard David and The Last Judgment by painter Hieronymus Bosch. These two particular pieces, created by early Netherlandish painters, are known for their blend of realism and symbolism and their depictions of religious scenes, characterized by themes of moralism and pessimism. These paintings play an integral part in the film, as the hitmen struggle with feelings of guilt, the meaning of sin, and the future of the soul. To them, the city is Purgatory: removed from time; a place where they wait for judgment. “Maybe that’s what hell is? The entire rest of eternity spent in Bruges.” @martinmcdonaghofficial
