Loving Vincent

Musics, arts, subjects of film and everthing about film is wonderfull. I think every person who intersting in art must watch this film.

The technical brilliance of the film hardly needs mentioning – it's a visual feast, impossible to look away from even for a second without feeling like I'd miss something. But that's far from the film's only strength. It tells the story of Vincent van Gogh's life and death with such beauty and heart that it's clear the creators poured their souls into it. I can’t otherwise explain the overwhelming emotions that took hold of me during the film, and even more so afterward. Sadness, joy, bliss, and deep emotion – all at once. Loving Vincent touched my heart and instantly became one of my favorite films.

Every frame in this film is hand painted animation. Considering there is 24 frames per second in a film, the work that must've gone into this is phenomenal. At first the animation was a little distracting from the story, because it's not the smooth flowing digital animation that we're used to from Pixar films. (It's quite flickering.) However when you get used to it, the story is gripping and very moving. Unlike most biopics, this one demonstrates that we can never really know anybody, because everyone has a different opinion.

I loved _Loving Vincent_. The plot is interesting (a young man delivering a letter from the late Vincent Van Gogh to the painter's brother, Theo, winds up investigating the circumstances around the artist's suicide), but the story is only half the story. The real reason to see this film is the animation. Billed as "The world's first fully oil painted feature film", _Loving Vincent_ takes Van Gogh's best known art works and breathes life into them by weaving them into the scenario. As a fan of Van Gogh, the visuals for this movie left me breathless and will stay with me for a long while. One of the best films of the year.

A one of a kind movie. Its visual power captures your senses and your interest from the first moment. Especially if you are a Van Gongh fan.

It focuses on an interesting part of Vincent's life (which also means you won't see the whole life of him if you expect a biographic documentary). You never get bored and its like you are part of the movie. In the end it leaves you with a calm and satisfying sensation.

All the actors are great. The animation is unique (and you see all the hard work to create all these oil paintings) and of course the music is a great asset for the movie.

Totally a must see movie for someone who seeks something different and also wants to have a taste of the life of this brilliant painter. Also a small piece of advice. It will boost the experience if you see some of his works first, especially his portraits.

I absolutely loved this film. It seems to live in a Vangogh's picture. The artists who contributed to realize the movie made a great and amazing work.

There are a lot of things about Vincent Van Gogh's life I did not know about. He started painting at the age of 27 and left this world at 37. This means he painted for 10 years only. Only one of his paintings was sold in his lifetime, and today he is considered as one of the best painters of all time.

From wiki, One year after Vincent van Gogh's suicide, postman Joseph Roulin asks his son Armand to deliver Van Gogh's last letter to his brother, Theo. Roulin finds the death suspicious, as merely weeks earlier Van Gogh claimed through letters that his mood was calm and normal. Armand reluctantly agrees and heads for Paris.

Each of the film's 65,000 frames is an oil painting on canvas, created using the same techniques as Van Gogh by a team of 125 artists drawn from around the globe. This is a feat in its own right, but even without this, the movie worked well for me as an independent story. There is a lot of charm in the painter's works but the movie goes beyond that and tries to understand the painter. The movie tries to read between the lines in the circumstances of his death.

The paintings are surreal. The painters needed real world actors to portray characters and that has come to life exceptionally well. I could see Saoirse Ronan in these painted frames.

There is a lot to unpack in this and although the protagonist is reluctant at the start, he gets pulled into the situation and towards the end, he takes it as his mission to uncover the truth. This journey comes out very well.

I was in Amsterdam many years ago for one day. I could not fit the Van Gogh museum in that day, but if I ever go back, it will now be one place I surely want to visit.

Amazing experience.
A movie made with love and dedication.

Eyes may get tired of flickering frames so get ready.

Beautifully animated, this is a one of a kind film that demands to be watched. Not only is the film cleverly made, incorporating the artists work into the tapestry of the story, but its also an intriguing tale. And it brought to life opinions surrounding the artists death that I had never previously considered too. Paints an admirable picture and certainly one of the best animated films in recent times.
