USA/France/Switzerland/UK/2018—directed by Julian Schnabel | 111 minutes
Julian Schnabel’s unconventional, visionary imagining of Van Gogh’s time in Arles and Auvers-Sur-Oise might be described as the melding of striking, visual stream-of-consciousness imagery with a contemplative, spiritual center worthy of Chekhov.
Though the film’s controversial approach to Van Gogh can leave a fan of more conventional “biopics” equally dazzled and disoriented, there can be little disagreement as to the hypnotic and transfixing intense performance of the astonishing Willem Dafoe, who brings to the screen a Van Gogh both blazingly intense and achingly vulnerable. As with Van Gogh’s greatest paintings, you simply can’t look away.
