Willem Dafoe’s Academy Award®-nominated performance as Vincent van Gogh highlights this Julian Schnabel film that journeys inside the world and mind of a person who, despite skepticism, ridicule, and illness, created some of the world's most beloved and stunning works of art. This is not a forensic biography, but rather scenes based on the artist’s letters, common agreement about events in his life that have been presented as facts, hearsay, and moments that are just plain invented.
