Jagger stars in art thriller ‘The Burnt Orange Heresy’
VENICE (Reuters) — Rolling Stones frontman Mick Jagger swaps the stage for a film set in “The Burnt Orange Heresy,” a thriller about a dishonest and greedy art critic desperate for success and recognition.
“The Square” actor Claes Bang plays the main character James Figueras, a Milan-based art critic tired of giving lectures to American tourists. When art dealer Joseph Cassidy, played by Jagger, invites him to his luxurious Lake Como villa, the host gives Figueras a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to interview famous, reclusive artist James Debney in return for stealing one of his paintings.
