Leonardo’s Chair
By John Desimone (Cook Communications)
Release date: January 25, 2005
Vincent LaBont is a world-class artist who attributes his creative ability to a chair he owns-a chair that he claims was created and empowered by Leonardo Da Vinci. When his home catches fire, Vincent is severely burned trying to rescue the chair. Later he realizes the chair was stolen before the house burned. Distraught that his creative abilities no longer exist without the chair, Vincent’s son Paul, a painter himself, sets out for Italy where they suspect the chair has been taken. While Vincent contemplates his life in California without the chair, Paul grapples with his skepticism: Is Leonardo’s chair real? Does it possess ancient power to create? Ultimately he, too, is seduced by the idea of the chair’s power.
