	FILM: 'THE DRAUGHTSMAN'S CONTRACT' - New York Times
		It's a none-too-solemn, enigmatic tale of murder set in a great English country house in 1694, when morals among the newly rich were as loose as absolutely possible and manners were mad mannerisms of dress, speech and behavior.
		The draughtsman of the title is a certain Mr.
		Greenaway recounts all this coolly, with an eye for detail as keen as the draughtsman's, but also with a number of not immediately explainable images that are simply absurdist.

	The Draughtsman's Contract - Review
		The result is 'The Draughtsman's Contract', which managed to bring together many of Greenaway's abstruse intellectual obsessions into their most accessible form yet, marking the beginning of his long career (recently revived with 'The Tulse Luper Suitcases') as Britain's best known arthouse director.
		When a corpse is found, Neville realises that, while everyone apparently has a motive for murder, he himself has also been placed in the frame by his own drawings which have all too successfully captured the innermost secrets of the house.
		In 'The Draughtsman's Contract', Greenaway ploughs the familiar landscape of the murder mystery, but plants in it new, exotic fruits all of his own.

		Peter Greenaway became a director of international status with this witty, stylised, erotic country house murder mystery, which has not been available on video in the UK for several years.
		In an apparently idyllic 17th century Wiltshire, an ambitious draughtsman is commissioned by the wife of an aristocrat to produce twelve drawings of her husband's estate and negotiates terms to include sexual favours from his employer.
		But when a corpse is dragged from the moat, the draughtsman's drawings may reveal more than he realised.

	DVD Times - The Draughtsman's Contract (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		This is, after all, the film which launched the international careers of both director Peter Greenaway and composer Michael Nyman; was one of the first features to receive finance from Channel Four; and also reinvigorated in audiences an interest for the period drama, albeit ones which moved beyond the merely pictorial.
		From this point of view The Draughtsman’s Contract is the most important of all of Greenaway’s work inasmuch as it serves as a bridge between the earlier career as an experimental filmmaker and the later one as an internationally established arthouse director.
		The Draughtsman’s Contract may be a film with a clearly defined hero and a number of definite villains, yet the approach of, say, Shane simply wouldn’t accommodate all of the ideas.

		Once this drawing was underway the steel draughtsman copied the steel overlay for construction drawings, and the piping draughtsman took the sanitary fitting overlay to begin drawing the composite pipework arrangements, which also included cable trays and vent trunking.
		Similarly, the ship draughtsman selects from a number of variables and selects what, in their opinion, best fits the requirements, and then presents the work in the form in which they think best shows up their design.

		Some have argued that the Draughtsman's Contract - like the majority of Greenaway's back-catalogue - is an elitist film, the type of which can only be enjoyed on a purely artistic level.
		In 1694 a confident young draughtsman of some talent eventually agrees to draw ten pictures of a country house for the wife of its owner in exchange for eight pounds a drawing, bed and board for himself and his servant, and ten private liaisons with the wife for sex.
		When it was released in 1982 The Draughtsman's Contract was unique - still is. Oh yeah, there was Kubrick's staid adaptation of Barry Lyndon with its sui generis lighting and slow, slovenly pace much admired by Scorcese, but Greenaway's film was considerably different.

		HagmŸller states at the outset that “visual documentation of the material aspects of a culture is never without a degree of subjectivity and imaginary content”, challenging the misconception that Powell’s work can be neatly divided between the super-real on the one hand, and the illusory on the other.
		He points out, “while Bob is certainly a meticulous draughtsman, even his documentary pictures go beyond the reality they depict”.
		And while Powell is primarily a studio artist, Oppitz coins the catchy term “ethnographic draughtsman” to describe the artist’s way of focussing in on images of intrinsic anthropological interest, while, at the same time “humbly following the rules of likeness”.
