New Rijksmuseum, The (Dutch)


Rating = B+

This four hour, four part film tells that story of the gutting and rebuilding (a total renovation) of the Rijksmuseum which took years longer and much more money than it was planned to take. It is a wonderful example of the problem of trying to do a project without a singular vision or single person of authority.
