One of my favorite movies is The Russian Ark directed by Alexander Sokurov. It is filmed in the Winter Palace of St, Petersburg so I hope it is the right place. It is amazing because it is a documentary/historical drama showing the museum since its inception and really amazing because it is a 96 minute movie filmed in one shot depicting the movies 300 year history and various characters. The same director did one about the Louvre but I did not like it as much.
One of my favorite museums is the Rodin Museum in Paris which contains some of the namesake's greatest works, including The Thinker, The Kiss, Adam, and the model for the Gates of Hell. Besides the sculptures, the museum is surrounded by beautiful grounds where I shall one day be married.
