Leathermen, homoeroticism, beefcake-three things you should not expect from the film Tom of Finland.

It is transgressive, artistically flawless, and hides a huge soul, delicacy and sensitivity. [Full Review in Spanish]

In the end, the overarching theme of "Tom of Finland" is the power of art, even - or maybe especially - so-called deviant art.

Tom always saw himself as an artist first and foremost, and thankfully, so does Dome Karukoski's film.

Tom of Finland is a good, strong movie, but never threatens to be great. One salivates at the adventurous directions the film could have explored.

A heartfelt tribute to the artist. It's also a too-often diffuse one.

Rating: 3/5 --
Neither a box-ticking biopic nor the sexy romp some publicity implicitly promised, Tom of Finland is a wide-ranging and finely directed drama with opinions to air on Finnish social history and LGBT activism.
