| Bluebeard is the "autobiography" of painter Rabo Karabekian. Once an important painter and friend of Jackson Pollack, Karabekian no longer paints because the material he used for his works had a flaw that made it peel up and flake off. His home is invaded by widow Circe Berman who browbeats him into writing his autobiography. Berman also dedicates herself to finding out what Rabo has hidden in his shed. | ||
