Pialat’s Biopic about Van Gogh’s last days is a masterpiece filled with art.

Film synopsis:

In late spring, 1890, Vincent moved to Auvers-sur-Oise, near Paris, under the care of Dr. Gachet, living in a humble inn. Fewer than 70 days later, he died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound. We see Vincent at work, painting landscapes and portraits. His brother Theo, wife Johanna, and their baby visited Auvers. Vincent was playful and charming, engaging the attentions of Gachet’s daughter Marguerite (who’s half Vincent’s age), a young maid at the inn, Cathy a Parisian prostitute, and Johanna. Shortly before his death, Vincent visited Paris, quarreled with Theo, disparaged his own art and accomplishments, danced at a brothel, and was warm then cold towards Marguerite.
