Understanding Van Gogh
If you are already well-versed on Van Gogh this film will just be a great, well-made glimpse into a tumultuous period in his life. Let's say that you aren't familiar with his work, this movie will surely give you a peek behind the curtain of history. It's a very emotional and raw film, with great sets/costuming and wonderful direction. It's tough to watch because there wasn't much positivity in his life, its very sobering.
A film about Vincent Van Gogh starring Willem Dafoe as the man himself, Oscar Isaac as French post-Impressionist artist Paul Gauguin, Mads Mikkelsen as a priest, and Mathieu Amalric as Dr. Paul Gachet… yes I was immediately sold. At Eternity’s Gate focuses on the final stages of Van Gogh’s life when he retreats to the small village of Aries. Dafoe truly captured Van Gogh.
William Dafoe was nominated for a Best Actor Oscar for this movie. He plays Vincent van Gogh the Artist, and his life. I do recommend this movie for people whom love Art, it is well filmed, excellent acting, and the experience of seeing this film is worth owning.
