Van Gogh says

Van Gogh said: There is a movie about Van Gogh called "The Gate of Eternity". In the movie, no one cares about Van Gogh's work, no one wants to appreciate it, and Van Gogh doesn't have a friend who can resonate with him. The younger brother of the business, it is estimated that his tragedy will happen sooner, and the works were only discovered after his death, and affirmed that it was the era that failed Van Gogh. When a person is overly immersed in literature and art, it will be a tragedy, because the public cannot see who they are, are unwilling to accept and understand, and they will not cater to the world, and as a result, they will easily be regarded as heretics. Van Gogh always regards himself as the protagonist, insisting on his own style of work, sensual and passionate, which deepens his loneliness and pain in the world. In the movie, many villagers hate Van Gogh. When he is a madman, if a madman can paint a painting that is unprecedented, but these so-called normal people cannot. Then I can only say that these lives are like beasts, and death is like death. livestock. In addition to making irresponsible remarks, the villagers would vilify him in the children, directly pulling the innocent children into the abyss. The children hated Van Gogh and often throw stones at him. The biggest crime is to encourage the children to join in. . When Van Gogh was sent for treatment, the dean held Van Gogh’s work with a dismissive expression. He didn’t think it was fine art at all. Because he couldn’t understand it, he rejected the talent. To grow money is to accumulate money. This is the law of history. Doctors cannot become masters of art and art, and they may even regard other people's unique ideas as diseases. Van Gogh’s situation is in a superficial environment. I am very impressed by such an environment. Whether human beings are awakened depends on the passion, pursuit and acceptance of literature and art. Just like before the Qin and Zhou dynasties, poetry is the custom of the world, regardless of class. Can write poems, the "Book of Songs" we have seen is not all. Enlightenment does not mean that human beings are oppressed and deprived of resistance is enlightenment. Resisting is nothing more than venting their dissatisfaction and plundering again. It is no different from beasts foraging. It is enlightenment, so the Western Renaissance is an age of enlightenment. My situation is similar to that of Van Gogh. The pilgrimage of literature and art has always been difficult and difficult. Since I was a child, I have been deprived, suppressed, and excluded from my life. I have also been self-mutilated. Even now I am living under surveillance. In the environment of reporting and reporting, because they are superficial, they are born barbaric and narrow. The excellent period in history is where literary and artistic works are very developed, because people’s imagination has not been rejected or fettered. For example, in the Tang and Song Dynasties, literature and art are very developed. Zhao Pu, who only read only half of The Analects, has the opportunity to express himself. The Tang Dynasty Similarly, no dynasty in Tang poetry can surpass it. Now, whoever remembers so many rich entrepreneurs hundreds of years after the death, but Li Bai will remember that in a thousand years, spiritual civilization is always higher than material construction. There is no vitality for literature and art in a harsh environment. Everything is suppressed and excluded, deprived of life, and put literature and art on the shackles. For example, during the pre-Qing Kang and Qian period, there were literary prisons everywhere. If people’s art is deprived, then people can only choose another type of violence to vent, either threatening the community or disrupting order, and people will easily become robbers and villains. Many Chinese in the world live in places called Chinatowns instead of Qingren Street. It’s clear at a glance whether they are good or bad. The real prosperous age is to allow everyone to imagine and play in the arts. Those who deliberately deprive and expel literature and art at any time The environment is not a heyday at all, but a tyranny.

    "What do you paint?" The "Sunlight" film is very fluid and jumpy, with a lot of pleasing filter processing in the photography, the lens movement is free and loose, and it complements the soundtrack. The cast can be described as luxurious, and it is rare that so many famous actors appear in such a film with such a strong literary and artistic color. The gold medal Green Leaf Dafoe became the protagonist, and I always felt that this was the Van Gogh I imagined, thinking and full of fanaticism, swallowing the cold eyes of the whole world, ugly, and becoming the most brilliant color under the brush

    It's too tricky to use Van Gogh and Gauguin to chat. The director has been engaged in neo-expressionism for more than 20 years before, but he has not given up painting yet. In fact, the filming of human faces in this play is very good, especially in all the dialogues, the faces of the two people are constantly reproduced in a transfer-style lens, and the texture is like a sculpture. The idea of ​​the whole movie is a bit earthy... It's really uncreative to choose the theme of Van Gogh. I actually don't want to see any fictional profile of an artist, but I also don't find it offensive that he portrays such a van Gogh. It's boring to restore it completely, but the category of biopics should die soon, and I don't want to watch it anymore.

At Eternity's Gate quotes

  • Paul Gauguin: Of all the miseries that afflict humanity, nothing maddens me more than the lack of money. But not tonight. Another round, madame.

  • Paul Gauguin: Listen, Vincent, the time is coming when painters won't need anymore to look at models and sit down in front of nature. You know why? Because nature is what we see here in our heads. Nothing else! Without our eyes, there's no nature. And none of us sees the world around us the same way. We sit, you and I, in front of the same landscape, we don't see the same mountains, the same trees.
