About Van Gogh, we may all know his "Sunflowers", "Starry Sky", and that classic self-portrait. Even if we haven't studied art, we still feel his unique brushstrokes, but what about the man himself? Experience has left us with almost all mysteries. Regarding his deeds, the most we hear is that he cut off his ear and gave it to a prostitute, but we don't know why he did it. In the end, he may end the guess with a sentence "artists are crazy". This "Loving Vincent, which uses Van Gogh's own paintings to show his life, still doesn't give us the exact answer, but it does bring us closer to Van Gogh. The movie starts from the world after Van Gogh's death, and the first scene is very shocking. The picture slides down from a crescent moon to the classic night sky. We see those twinkling stars and arrive at the place where Van Gogh once lived. Our perspective follows Armand, the son of the post office owner, on the way to deliver the letter. The letter that was supposed to be sent to Van Gogh's younger brother Theo, but lost his home after Theo also followed his brother's death, while Armand was in Van Gogh's younger brother. The land where Gauteng lived saw a van Gogh he never knew. Legend has it that Van Gogh shot himself in a wheat field, but he failed and died two days after his suicide. His death is a mystery, and the people around him—Papa Tanguy, the paint seller, the innkeeper's daughter, the doctor Gachet and his daughter, the doctor's housekeeper, the boatman—seem to be very interested in Vatican. Gao held different attitudes and opinions, and held different opinions on his death. Maybe it is because everyone is different that they see a different Van Gogh, the girl in the hotel saw his gentle and firm side, and the noble girl saw his genius and loneliness, and these are only part of him. In the end, Armand claims with almost certainty that Van Gogh did not commit suicide, but was shot and killed by a local idle boy. However, Margaret, who is rumored to be close to Van Gogh and admire each other, told Armand that whether Van Gogh killed or committed suicide, he was a lonely and lonely person, and he died because of this. When he covered his wound and said, "Maybe this is good for everyone", it doesn't matter why he was shot, he was willing to accept death, he died of loneliness that was out of tune with this world. It is impressive that in the boatman's narration, when Van Gogh was painting, a crow landed on his lunch, and he watched it for a long time in silence, without a trace of anger. The boatmen were all sighing: "How lonely this person should be." Van Gogh experienced inferiority when he was a child. He felt that he would never be comparable to the real Vincent who died before him. The confusion and all the loneliness came from the mother's hand that did not hesitate to withdraw. After that, he made a lot of efforts, but failed to get into the eyes of his parents. When he was 28 years old, he picked up a paintbrush with the encouragement of his younger brother. In the past 8 years, he quickly reached an artistic level that others could never reach in his entire life, but he was still accompanied by the constant loneliness and loneliness. The girl he admired was forbidden to have sex with him. He associates, his so-called friends always He was playing tricks on him with bad intentions, his younger brother was seriously ill but he had to bear the pressure brought by him... All this made Van Gogh feel hopeless, he lay on the bed and thought with emotion: "If I and others It’s good to be human.” He finally chose to accept death, maybe as he always thought, why can’t people touch the stars in the sky? Could death be the way to the city of stars? After the film is over, we still can't understand him, he is still like a star in the sky, placed in front of us, but we can't see it thoroughly. We may still not know why he cut off his ears to give to prostitutes, but we do seem to be getting a little closer to that night sky. In fact, just because this film is the world's first oil painting-style animated feature film, it is worth our appreciation. "The film used 125 painters from 15 countries, based on 120 original works of Van Gogh plus actor performances. The 853 shots were shot, and more than 1,000 hand-painted oil paintings were created, and each of them was changed layer by layer, processed into 65,000 frames, and finally a 90-minute coherent story at a playback rate of 12 frames per second. "We see that behind the good intentions of the filmmakers, it is actually a tribute to Van Gogh and a gentle hug. After so many years of his death, can we try to give him a tolerance and understanding? Can we try to touch the lonely night sky gently with our trembling fingertips?
