Vincent van gogh font bu movie#

But, back in November a few of my friends asked if I wanted to come to a little movie theater in our town and see a movie that was only being played in a handful of theaters across the country. I know next to nothing about art - I lowkey thought Van Gogh was a musician I'm not even gonna lie, mostly cause I knew he got his ear chopped off at some point and I thought it had something to do with music - IDK.

Needed much more artwork and illustrations. Heiligman chose the tone of sentimentality and naivetГ©, presenting brothers almost exclusively in a saccharine light of brotherly love. I was also often put off by the writing style itself. The influences of these factors on lives of the brothers are mentioned only in passing and without any kind of expertise.

What Heiligman decided not to write about is the larger historical and cultural backdrop of Van Goghs' lives - for example, state of mental health care (after all, both brothers ended up in mental institutions at some points of their lives) or the intricacies of the art scene.
