Aggie is a film every art center in the country should show to its supporters and community as its positive message is inspiring, aspiring, and beautiful. Aggie is a film about someone with imagination, and art requires imagination.
Aggie is an extraordinary figure, and the doc is interesting enough. But don’t expect much invention or surprise here. The overall tone is frenetic and imprecise.
However great Gund’s influence on other collectors and philanthropists has been, and however progressive and righteous her advocacy for racial justice, Aggie doesn’t match her originality with an accordingly innovative approach.
