Vincent was fortunate to have the support of his brother Theo.

“I can’t do anything else. Believe me, I’ve tried.” Those words echo in the darkest corners of the those places in my heart I dare not go...

As an artist myself, I can say with utmost certainty, an artist must do what their heart bids them to create, whether it is appreciated now or not. And yes, as stated here, your audience will arrive. If you are a struggling artist, if you are just beginning and if you are questioning yourself, hang in there. This is part of our path and a part of what it sometimes means to be creators. We don’t get to boast of our dedication to our dreams if things are always easy. Dedication isn’t even required if things are always easy. Your journey is shaping and refining you and your art. What ever you are going through, don’t waste that, turn it into fuel to create more, otherwise your struggles were wasted, meaningless, and that’s the greatest tragedy. Not that people don’t appreciate your art right now. And for all non artists who romanticize Van Gogh’s life and struggles, celebrate his art and lament he wasn’t famous before he died... there are great artists right now who could well live and die unknown. Support your local artists, your friends and your family who create! SHARE their Facebook pages and posts, like their videos, subscribe, go to their events, text them a message about their latest work. It’s ABSOLUTELY free and takes minutes. And if you can, buy their work! When you buy from an artist, you allow them to purchase supplies to continue to create! If Van Gogh could give us a message right now, it might well be to support living artists! Especially if you truly appreciate art and the beauty artists bring to the world.

Great film. Most Van Gogh takes are about this "tragic" and "tortured" artist but this movie is quite uplifting and optimistic. I love the focus being about the creative journey. Very beautiful film!

It's so hard to find anybody around me in high school that feels the same way I do about art. One day I hope to find a group of people who are just as passionate about art as I am...

That's why I paint, to stop me thinking, mostly about people who don't care and cause pain. I love painting, I escape from all worry. Vincent van Gogh was my first inspiration.

Wonderful film. One of the best I've seen in a long time.

As a young apprentice I once took lsd---at work. And I will never forget how the blue sky looked. It was electric blue. As I imagine in the state he had created Vincent also saw such a thing. Unique moments are often lost. As you get older everything is designed in order that you only conform and no longer seek anything except normality.

A true artist sees OPPORTUNITY all around him/her. It’s impossible to not “see”

This is an excellent movie that not only captures the essence of who Van Gogh was but it also captures what it's like to be an artist and know that to create artwork is something that you have to do..

Still can’t believe Vincent’s sketch book was just found!

Van Gogh was able to draw very well his whole life. Van Gogh painted thanks to oil paint in a tube and painted like he drew.

Amazing ! Usually when actors play a character that you always identify them by, it's difficult to see them as playing anyone else. However, I have to congratulate everyone involved in the making of this for really making Vincent convincing. Vincent's work is a favorite artist of mine, and I've really studied his facial features. They absolutely nailed the look. So much of a likeness in in little details like the cut of the beard. Just a fraction of an inch out of shape, and it starts to look like someone else. The hair stylist did a great job. I can really tell it was a team effort, and they really pulled it off .

I saw this film yesterday, and is a beautiful movie. Highly recommended. Like Andrea Arnold and Terrence Malick style.

"How do you know? Because I can't do anything else".

This movie was one of the best movies of the year

Art has only two values "either its priceless or PRICELESS"

Thank you for the movie.

Received the movie yesterday, Brilliant!!! Julian Schnabel is BRILLIANT!

Can't wait to see this film. Van Gogh's work...., well, there are no words..... I've been a HUGE Willem Dafoe fan since I first saw him in Platoon in 1986. I hope he wins the Oscar!! He's been overlooked too many times for strong leading roles, and awards. Brilliant!

Can't wait to see this!

My love of painting has never dimmed. Colour and art are my life.

This movie was amazing. I loved that it showed him as a person and that it showed how he saw the world as a painter.

I went to the Van Gogh museum in Amsterdam I felt like I was in each painting he made. I could feel what he may have been on (people used to drink paint thinner and absinthe) in certain paintings. it was fantastic

It would have been nice if it was in a movie theater that I could find

Were he alive today? Would his treatment be the same? Yes.

2:36 Just look at how well the actor BECOMES Dr. Gachet ! The subtle bulging of the eye really makes the character. They did such a good job on this film ( And i haven't even seen it yet ! This video is the first I have seen of it . )

Julian "we are leaning towards a divine light and we are expecting to get hit by it" I am deeply grateful to say I know this, thank you for having the words that point toward it.

Wonderful! Thank you Julian Schnabel!

really hope this film comes to my little town, it looks brilliant..

AT ETERNITY's GATE is phenomenal. Dafoe delivers one of his greatest. Words fail.

Wow this was a great interview. I can't wait to see the movie even more now.

very beautiful

Thank you

One of my favorite films of the year hands down..

Love this!!!

i am very touched of this for myself iam a painter on ways of the old painters finding the way get confussed , everything speaks deep out of lmy soul,, a Masterpeace

i was born to paint

He made it just on the edge of a Terence Malick dream, a beautiful film.

It should win for best actor in leading role ! It's not something you can see everyday, I mean look at how hard they create the scenes especially when it replicated the landscape depicted in those famous paintings

Amazing vision.

Wonderful film!!

I cant wait to see it, when does it come out?

Wonderful Movie...

The colors and distorted vision might have been true for Vincent as seen in his paintings. Director and cast captured glimpses of this! About time!

I Want This Movie. Badly . Wow Dafoe Acting Vincent , Perfect.

Great orator, and director!

What a cast! Willem Dafoe is perfect for the role!

BRILLIANT

I have an amazing book called Vincent by himself. The book has most of his letters to Theo. I highly recommend it.

muy bueno

Poor Vincent. He was a poet of color and a visionary of the human condition under a hot French sun

B4 I knew who I was... B4 I knew who he was... I saw A STARRY NIGHT in a magazine. I tore out the page and pinned it to my wall. It still exists in my mind. It always has. It always will.

I No the battle with my work as a Painter . Bless Vincent.

this looks visually amazing and I admire Schnabel's films; I am having a hard time getting around Dafoe's voice though! Hopefully inside the world of the film it will be all right

WAS A GREAT STORY ABOUT A GREAT ARTIST , I ALSO READ THE BOOK OF HIS LIFE, SORRY FOR ALL HIS PAIN ,,,BUT (NO PAIN NO GAIN) I GUESS AND HIS ART REFLECTS HIS PASSION, and PAIN, R.I.P. MY FRIEND ♡

A brilliant performance by Wilaem Defoe.

Dafoe!

Yeah! Willem Defoe is van gogh, Williem is one of my best idol , I remember his role in uncommn valore

I am a artist that few see now!! But for me the passion of creating is overwhelming. I struggle in a world of too many choices and commercial images but I still create. In hope that one day someone with the sight and the heart will recognize my work as a artist that cared about life.

I saw this 🎥 film today Switzerland 🇨🇭 and is a wonderful movie 🙏👍👏👏🎨🌠.but I’m very very sad 😞 😢❤️🎨Van Gogh❤️🙏🎨💡🌐

Is that Leonardo DiCaprio at 0:43?! BTW this film is absolutely stunning, 10/10. You can really feel the pain and loneliness that van Gogh went through.

His hoodie where can I buy that 👌🏻

When a painter looks at another painting that he or she has not created. The emotion.And understanding of others work is very close Because you at the very least see someone who has felt and occupied the same as you.

When and where may I see this art work of film? When is it released to theaters? Or straight to DVD? The best line is "why do you paint" and the answer is perfect. I am an artist as well! A right brain answer " to stop thinking," director? Nice way to approach this film, when,and where?

vInCenT vAn goU

At 1:34 is one of Julian s " broken plate " pieces

Does any one know why at some scene of the movie te screem was like diveded? The botton part was unclear fuzzy. Like in minite 1:21

You expressed my thoughts like a painter of history merged with a a psychologist.

Tragic life but still iwas a beautful and well lived

What I love about Vincent is that it was just for him. It was only that time he loved and lived as himself. A dusty safe old expert Is often someone who.would have been shocked at that time.

I feel that this movies is going to make my shed some mantears

Sad that a painter’s works are only appreciated once he dies

WHERE CAN I WATCH THIS MOVIE IN NYC ?!?!?!

If he had been accepted by the public his life would have been allot easier. His work was too challenging for the times.

What is the song in the background?

I think it takes a certain kind of soul.mind and person to know this. It's definitely not something for the one aspect understanding of life. It's never going to be that easy tick on a box that makes others feel sure. Anything seemed as strange at a time is always going to be outside of then And should be something of the future. But obviously at the time thats almost impossible.

I was a painter before this life

When is this coming out?

Wow I haven’t this, it looks promising the cinematography looks so much like lubeski

I prefer the small but very special episode of Dr Who with Vincent 💕💕

No mention of Van Gogh's theological studies or his stated goal of creating a simpler language of art?

Van Gogh did not cut off his ear. It was sheared off by a piece of sheet metal in a fight with Paul Goguin in Goguin's apartment.

Spørsmåle må jo ver "Koffer fulle dassene med på alt eg gjørr?"

I read his letters. He was brisk.

specifically Robert Johnson

When i see vincent i picture Bill Burr , what if Bill were to be the cast in the film. XD

damn dude, it seems like every shot in this film looks like a van gogh painting

van gogh is best nr1

Willem is my great uncle

Schnabel is as good a movie director as he is a bad painter.

Yes, it seems like you've seen it. But it's a nice way to pass time. Maybe 45 minutes.

Release

I ignore the warning label near the top of my six-foot ladder that reads: Do Not Stand On Or Above This Step. But wonder if that held Julian Schnabel back from making his shitty broken-plate paintings even bigger.

feel the degree of insolence in this, a man ask the master Van Gogh,' why you peint ?' people who are extremely igniorant and who can't see or sence the Beauty, are extremely dangerous, they refrein the progression of our Era in many ways

2:51 He could have been one of those ppl who blocks out all the white noise to focus on his paintings

William defoy...!!!👍

The spiderman

1:17 "when you leave, you have F'n sense." Is that what he said?

anyone got an id on those glasses
