This article critically appraises the film "Goya in Bordeaux," directed by Carlos Saura. The film has precious little use for critical commentary. It's strictly of the "It came to me in a dream" school--and as such things go, it's worth a few laughs. This much of the story is true: In 1824, when he was already an old man, Goya went into exile from Spain, which had become uncomfortable for him with the restoration of the monarchy, and settled in France, where he spent the last four years of his life.
