If you expect too much, you may be disappointed.

The protagonist is too old. Although the acting skills are very good, after all, Van Gogh committed suicide at the age of 37. However, in the film Van Gogh already feels like he is nearly 60 years old. The most disappointing thing is Gauguin's actor, who is a ruffian. Rogue, I didn’t see Gauguin’s love for painting at all in the film. Painting a female model also feels like flirting with others. The temperament is too low, the picture is beautiful, the colors are great, but it’s too much effort. Van Gogh acted so bitterly and so profoundly, Van Gogh's emotions were simple and strong, and the beauty he showed was a grandeur with tears in his eyes!

    The animated version of the live-action version, those first-perspective shots test the actors and basically meet the standard...but to shoot such a person, just meeting the standard is not enough

    As Van Gogh and Gauguin said when they peeed, we are not watching the same sky, so we may not watch the same movie.

At Eternity's Gate quotes

  • Vincent Van Gogh: I believe I have a menacing spirit around me. An invisible being. I feel it, I don't see it. He speaks to me and threatens me. And all he wants to do is plunge a knife into my heart. I saw him and I tried to cut him out of myself.

    Doctor Felix Ray: So that's the reason why you cut off your ear. Your vision of the world, as you say, is quite frightening, isn't it?

    Vincent Van Gogh: Yes. I'm terrified he'll come back.

  • Paul Gauguin: In other words, you want to re-establish a hierarchy! Those who command and those who obey!
