The sublime and beautiful are only two dimensions of what art can do to someone though, Egon Schiele just cranks the dial into the opposite direction. Your movie analogy is actually very good. To you, Schiele is probably moving towards trash/exploitation movie, while to you the role of art is to be something "higher" that either elates or educates people. I can understand that viewpoint. It's just that I find Schiele's stuff beautiful as well, just not in the classical sense, and to me if Klimt's stuff was a movie, I'm afraid it would be be some "Hiematfilm" kind of kitsch.
