I don't mind slow pace at all, if the frames are smart and beautiful enough to keep my attention. In some case, frames themselves can have enough visual power to draw you from the story completely, it's not a bad thing really. For instance, Sergei Parajanov's films.

I don't know Sergei Parajanov, I have to look.
I consider that the film is very visual and, paradoxically, it was not the scenes from the painter's workshop that attracted me the most. Not the painter-model relationship, which is the theme of the film, I liked the most ... more interesting for me was the painter-wife relationship (although it was a secondary theme).
