Vincent & Theo
Vincent & Theo ★★★½ 1990 (PG-13)
The story of Impressionist painter Vincent van Gogh (Roth), and his brother Theo (Rhys), a gallery owner who loved his brother's work, yet could not get the public to buy it. Increasing despair and mental illness traps both men, as each struggles to create beauty in a world where it has no value. Altman has created a stunning portrait of “the artist” and his needs. The exquisite cinematography will make you feel as if you stepped into van Gogh's work. 138m/C VHS, DVD . Tim Roth, Paul Rhys, Johanna Ter Steege, Wladimir Yordanoff; D: Robert Altman; W: Julian Mitchell; C: Jean Lepine.
