Exactly. In a word: COMPLEXITY. And understanding the complexity requires ability to distinguish nuances, differences, variations, diversity, changes, tones, etc.

That's why when you watch Tess, if you're a sensitive person, you appreciate the delicate beauty, tenderness, feelings and deep emotions of Nastassja Kinski's character, as a performance from a wonderful actress. Someone who says he watched Tess just because Kinski is "hot", is nothing but a brute and insensitive person, unable to appreciate art and beauty.

And there are many ways of understanding beauty, like:

  • Physical beauty
  • The beauty of a voice
  • The beauty of a personality
  • The beauty of an emotion
  • The beauty of an artistic creation
  • The beauty of an artist's performance
  • Beauty according to oneself
  • Beauty according to others
  • Etc....
