Directed by Robert Altman.
This period drama on the lives of Vincent van Gogh (Tim Roth) and his brother, the art dealer Theo (Paul Rhys), details the torments of the two inextricably bound brothers, each dealing with bourgeois constraints in his own, pained way. Inevitably compared to director Robert Altman’s own journey as a filmmaker, the picture is a sober assessment of artistic process, which often consigns one to obscurity without apology.
