- 00:00:54,478 --> 00:00:56,611
- VINCENT:
- I just want to be one of them.
- 3
- 00:00:56,613 --> 00:00:58,980
- I would like to sit down
- with them and have a drink,
- 4
- 00:00:58,982 --> 00:01:01,750
- and talk about anything.
- 5
- 00:01:01,752 --> 00:01:04,386
- I'd like for them
- to give me some tobacco,
- 6
- 00:01:04,388 --> 00:01:05,520
- a glass of wine,
- 7
- 00:01:05,522 --> 00:01:08,957
- or even just ask me,
- "How are you today?"
- 8
- 00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:11,528
- And I would answer,
- and we would talk.
- 9
- 00:01:12,528 --> 00:01:14,595
- And from time to time,
- 10
- 00:01:14,597 --> 00:01:17,698
- I'd make a sketch
- of one of them as a gift.
- 11
- 00:01:17,700 --> 00:01:20,936
- They would accept it maybe,
- and keep it somewhere.
- 12
- 00:01:20,938 --> 00:01:24,906
- And a woman
- would smile at me and ask,
- 13
- 00:01:24,908 --> 00:01:29,011
- "Are you hungry? Would you
- like something to eat?
- 14
- 00:01:29,013 --> 00:01:33,418
- "A piece of ham, some
- cheese, or maybe a fruit?"
- 16
- 00:01:47,498 --> 00:01:48,700
- VINCENT: Look at me.
- 17
- 00:01:50,034 --> 00:01:51,633
- Please.
- 19
- 00:02:09,953 --> 00:02:11,021
- VINCENT: Oui.
- 29
- 00:03:33,437 --> 00:03:36,537
- Some of them were
- going to be in my group show.
- 30
- 00:03:36,539 --> 00:03:37,606
- They let me down.
- 45
- 00:04:50,848 --> 00:04:52,613
- You know him, don't you?
- 46
- 00:04:52,615 --> 00:04:55,483
- Yes, I have some of
- his paintings in the gallery.
- 49
- 00:05:18,841 --> 00:05:20,175
- I'm Paul
- Gauguin, by the way.
- 50
- 00:05:20,177 --> 00:05:21,243
- I know.
- 51
- 00:05:21,245 --> 00:05:22,810
- - You're Vincent.
- - Yes.
- 52
- 00:05:22,812 --> 00:05:24,111
- Theo's brother.
- 53
- 00:05:24,113 --> 00:05:25,983
- I saw your paintings
- at the cafeteria.
- 54
- 00:05:27,750 --> 00:05:30,151
- You did? You must've
- been the only one.
- 55
- 00:05:30,153 --> 00:05:32,687
- But if you did,
- it was worth it.
- 56
- 00:05:32,689 --> 00:05:33,788
- There were a couple
- good ones in there,
- 57
- 00:05:33,790 --> 00:05:34,755
- but it was hard to see.
- 58
- 00:05:34,757 --> 00:05:36,726
- It was a difficult space.
- And too many works.
- 59
- 00:05:38,060 --> 00:05:40,027
- My idea was a group show.
- 60
- 00:05:40,029 --> 00:05:42,897
- I thought it could be
- a community of artists,
- 61
- 00:05:42,899 --> 00:05:44,098
- like a family.
- 62
- 00:05:44,100 --> 00:05:46,735
- When the other artists
- didn't participate,
- 63
- 00:05:46,737 --> 00:05:48,904
- I had to do it by myself.
- 64
- 00:05:48,906 --> 00:05:51,539
- I filled it with everything
- I had in my studio.
- 65
- 00:05:51,541 --> 00:05:53,041
- Yeah, it looked like it.
- 66
- 00:05:53,043 --> 00:05:55,243
- Those people, you don't
- want them to be your family.
- 67
- 00:05:55,245 --> 00:05:57,611
- Who needs a family like that?
- 68
- 00:05:57,613 --> 00:06:00,147
- You can't pick your family,
- but you can pick your friends.
- 69
- 00:06:00,149 --> 00:06:01,882
- I love my brother.
- 70
- 00:06:01,884 --> 00:06:02,950
- Then you're lucky.
- 71
- 00:06:02,952 --> 00:06:04,752
- But more importantly,
- he loves you.
- 72
- 00:06:04,754 --> 00:06:06,788
- I know
- he's very good to you.
- 73
- 00:06:06,790 --> 00:06:09,024
- I want to get as far away
- from these people as possible.
- 74
- 00:06:09,026 --> 00:06:10,824
- I'm going to Madagascar.
- 75
- 00:06:10,826 --> 00:06:13,264
- Madagascar?
- But what about Japan?
- 76
- 00:06:14,163 --> 00:06:16,163
- No, no, Madagascar.
- 77
- 00:06:16,165 --> 00:06:18,567
- It's an island. Big one.
- 78
- 00:06:18,569 --> 00:06:20,334
- In between Africa and India.
- 79
- 00:06:20,336 --> 00:06:22,937
- Or even further,
- some remote island
- 80
- 00:06:22,939 --> 00:06:25,606
- where they've never
- heard about painting,
- 81
- 00:06:25,608 --> 00:06:28,642
- about Paris or schools.
- 82
- 00:06:28,644 --> 00:06:30,277
- Somewhere where I can
- create a new vision,
- 83
- 00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:31,613
- a new way of painting,
- 84
- 00:06:31,615 --> 00:06:33,582
- far away from all systems
- and theories.
- 85
- 00:06:33,584 --> 00:06:34,752
- Real freedom.
- 86
- 00:06:36,185 --> 00:06:39,019
- I'd like to be calm
- and take my time,
- 87
- 00:06:39,021 --> 00:06:41,725
- alone, forget about the rest
- of the world, and just...
- 88
- 00:06:42,625 --> 00:06:44,194
- Paint this.
- 89
- 00:06:45,062 --> 00:06:46,129
- Here.
- 90
- 00:06:47,764 --> 00:06:48,799
- Slowly.
- 91
- 00:06:49,833 --> 00:06:52,670
- What comes to me,
- nothing else.
- 92
- 00:06:53,202 --> 00:06:55,303
- That sounds good.
- 93
- 00:06:55,305 --> 00:06:58,209
- I hate the fog. I'm tired
- of this gray light.
- 94
- 00:06:59,209 --> 00:07:01,843
- I'd like to find
- a new light.
- 95
- 00:07:01,845 --> 00:07:04,878
- For paintings
- that we haven't yet seen.
- 96
- 00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:07,684
- Bright paintings,
- painted in sunlight.
- 97
- 00:07:10,252 --> 00:07:13,154
- Go south, Vincent.
- 116
- 00:16:57,639 --> 00:16:59,242
- MADAME GINOUX:
- What are you reading today?
- 117
- 00:17:00,342 --> 00:17:01,408
- The Bible?
- 118
- 00:17:01,410 --> 00:17:02,745
- VINCENT: Uh, no, Shakespeare.
- 119
- 00:17:03,513 --> 00:17:05,212
- How did you say?
- 120
- 00:17:05,214 --> 00:17:06,814
- Shakespeare.
- William Shakespeare.
- 121
- 00:17:06,816 --> 00:17:08,384
- He's an English writer.
- 122
- 00:17:08,951 --> 00:17:10,253
- Do you know him?
- 123
- 00:17:10,953 --> 00:17:13,789
- No, he lived a long time ago.
- 124
- 00:17:14,856 --> 00:17:16,759
- - Is he any good?
- - Oh, yes.
- 125
- 00:17:18,928 --> 00:17:20,561
- What does he write about?
- 126
- 00:17:20,563 --> 00:17:22,395
- About everything.
- 127
- 00:17:22,397 --> 00:17:26,366
- About men and women,
- gods and kings,
- 128
- 00:17:26,368 --> 00:17:28,302
- about love and hate.
- 129
- 00:17:28,304 --> 00:17:29,840
- What are you
- reading right now?
- 130
- 00:17:31,007 --> 00:17:35,709
- It's a, uh, theater play
- called Richard III.
- 131
- 00:17:35,711 --> 00:17:39,348
- - Who is that, Richard?
- - A king, a king of England.
- 132
- 00:17:39,848 --> 00:17:40,782
- A good king?
- 133
- 00:17:40,784 --> 00:17:44,517
- Oh, no, he was
- considered a real bastard.
- 134
- 00:17:44,519 --> 00:17:46,923
- - Did he kill people?
- - Oh, yes, a lot.
- 135
- 00:17:49,325 --> 00:17:51,327
- You shouldn't read
- a bastard's story.
- 136
- 00:17:51,994 --> 00:17:54,027
- Why not?
- 137
- 00:17:54,029 --> 00:17:56,697
- - Does he write well at least?
- - Oh, yes, very well.
- 138
- 00:17:56,699 --> 00:17:59,570
- Some of the lines
- aren't very clear, but...
- 139
- 00:18:00,836 --> 00:18:02,838
- - I like that.
- - Why?
- 140
- 00:18:04,807 --> 00:18:06,740
- Because I like mystery,
- 141
- 00:18:06,742 --> 00:18:10,411
- and Shakespeare
- is more mysterious
- 142
- 00:18:10,413 --> 00:18:11,714
- than any other writer.
- 143
- 00:18:13,650 --> 00:18:16,017
- Well, when I read a book,
- 144
- 00:18:16,019 --> 00:18:18,221
- I like to understand
- what's written.
- 145
- 00:18:19,655 --> 00:18:21,591
- What kind of books
- do you read?
- 146
- 00:18:23,292 --> 00:18:24,458
- Mmm...
- 147
- 00:18:24,460 --> 00:18:27,364
- Mostly novels. Modern novels.
- 148
- 00:18:28,431 --> 00:18:30,701
- And short stories
- in the papers.
- 149
- 00:18:31,834 --> 00:18:32,701
- Sad stories.
- 150
- 00:18:34,804 --> 00:18:37,641
- I don't know why,
- I like a story to be sad.
- 151
- 00:18:40,542 --> 00:18:42,478
- If I had more free time,
- I would...
- 152
- 00:18:44,012 --> 00:18:46,447
- Wait a minute.
- I'll be right back.
- 155
- 00:19:12,075 --> 00:19:14,874
- - I have a book for you.
- - Thank you.
- 156
- 00:19:14,876 --> 00:19:18,511
- There's nothing written in
- it. In fact, it's blank.
- 157
- 00:19:18,513 --> 00:19:20,483
- But I thought
- you could use the paper.
- 158
- 00:19:20,849 --> 00:19:22,783
- Thank you.
- 159
- 00:19:22,785 --> 00:19:26,420
- Excuse me, I've been
- meaning to ask you...
- 160
- 00:19:26,422 --> 00:19:29,123
- Is there a place,
- or do you have a storeroom,
- 161
- 00:19:29,125 --> 00:19:32,959
- or a room where I could paint?
- It's...
- 162
- 00:19:32,961 --> 00:19:37,430
- It's sometimes difficult with
- this weather, the mistral.
- 163
- 00:19:37,432 --> 00:19:40,403
- The yellow house next door
- has been empty for months.
- 164
- 00:19:41,136 --> 00:19:42,638
- Maybe he could use it?
- 165
- 00:19:42,939 --> 00:19:44,705
- Yes...
- 166
- 00:19:44,707 --> 00:19:46,977
- Perhaps we could make an
- arrangement with your brother?
- 167
- 00:19:47,876 --> 00:19:48,976
- It is a bit rundown,
- 168
- 00:19:48,978 --> 00:19:51,615
- but Gaby can help you
- clean it up.
- 169
- 00:19:52,882 --> 00:19:54,651
- That would be
- perfect for me.
- 170
- 00:19:56,685 --> 00:19:58,454
- Maybe I can,
- 171
- 00:19:59,055 --> 00:20:01,658
- uh, make a painting of
- 172
- 00:20:03,459 --> 00:20:04,561
- you someday.
- 173
- 00:20:05,595 --> 00:20:06,730
- POSTMAN: Me?
- 174
- 00:20:07,864 --> 00:20:08,865
- Yes.
- 175
- 00:20:10,133 --> 00:20:12,001
- If you want, sir, thank you.
- 176
- 00:20:20,175 --> 00:20:22,977
- GABY: Have you received
- the money for this month?
- 177
- 00:20:22,979 --> 00:20:25,011
- You still owe me
- for last month.
- 178
- 00:20:25,013 --> 00:20:26,716
- VINCENT: When it arrives,
- 179
- 00:20:28,451 --> 00:20:29,586
- I'll pay you.
- 180
- 00:20:31,053 --> 00:20:33,890
- GABY: Your brother,
- he must be rich.
- 181
- 00:20:34,589 --> 00:20:38,124
- Well, he... He's not.
- 182
- 00:20:38,126 --> 00:20:40,996
- He's a merchant.
- He sells paintings.
- 183
- 00:20:42,999 --> 00:20:44,433
- Your paintings?
- 184
- 00:20:45,434 --> 00:20:46,836
- Not yet.
- 185
- 00:20:53,675 --> 00:20:55,875
- You should
- wash yourself sometimes.
- 186
- 00:20:55,877 --> 00:20:57,480
- At least once a week.
- 187
- 00:20:58,079 --> 00:20:59,779
- Do I look dirty?
- 188
- 00:20:59,781 --> 00:21:01,582
- You smell terrible.
- 189
- 00:21:01,584 --> 00:21:03,584
- You're not bad looking.
- 190
- 00:21:03,586 --> 00:21:05,018
- If you just
- cleaned up a little,
- 191
- 00:21:05,020 --> 00:21:07,755
- you might even be handsome.
- 192
- 00:21:07,757 --> 00:21:10,591
- If I was clean, would
- you find me attractive?
- 193
- 00:21:10,593 --> 00:21:12,192
- Maybe.
- 194
- 00:21:12,194 --> 00:21:15,499
- Would you stay with me here
- if I gave you 50 Francs?
- 195
- 00:21:17,666 --> 00:21:19,502
- You don't have 50 Francs.
- 196
- 00:21:21,503 --> 00:21:22,872
- See you tomorrow, Vincent.
- 200
- 00:21:51,099 --> 00:21:52,866
- GABY: Why do you paint this?
- 201
- 00:21:52,868 --> 00:21:53,834
- VINCENT: What?
- 202
- 00:21:53,836 --> 00:21:56,135
- GABY: These flowers.
- Why do you paint them?
- 203
- 00:21:56,137 --> 00:21:57,705
- VINCENT: Don't you
- find them beautiful?
- 204
- 00:21:57,707 --> 00:22:00,207
- Well, they are
- beautiful flowers, no doubt.
- 205
- 00:22:00,209 --> 00:22:02,242
- More beautiful
- than what you paint.
- 206
- 00:22:02,244 --> 00:22:05,014
- - You think so?
- - Oh, yes.
- 207
- 00:22:06,848 --> 00:22:08,815
- Maybe you're right.
- 208
- 00:22:08,817 --> 00:22:13,187
- But these flowers will wither
- and fade. All flowers do.
- 209
- 00:22:13,189 --> 00:22:15,288
- I know, everybody knows that.
- 210
- 00:22:15,290 --> 00:22:16,826
- But mine will resist.
- 211
- 00:22:17,660 --> 00:22:18,695
- GABY: Are you sure?
- 213
- 00:22:21,564 --> 00:22:22,999
- At least
- they'll have a chance.
- 214
- 00:22:25,835 --> 00:22:27,604
- You should
- make a painting of me.
- 215
- 00:22:29,805 --> 00:22:31,104
- Why not?
- 216
- 00:22:31,106 --> 00:22:32,171
- If you paint me,
- 217
- 00:22:32,173 --> 00:22:34,275
- I would stay young
- forever, maybe.
- 218
- 00:22:34,277 --> 00:22:36,911
- I can even
- make you look younger.
- 219
- 00:22:36,913 --> 00:22:38,882
- No, it wouldn't be fair.
- 226
- 00:29:24,118 --> 00:29:26,953
- VINCENT:
- When facing a flat landscape,
- 227
- 00:29:26,955 --> 00:29:29,157
- I see nothing but eternity.
- 228
- 00:29:31,292 --> 00:29:33,362
- Am I the only one to see it?
- 229
- 00:29:36,699 --> 00:29:39,102
- Existence can't be
- without reason.
- 244
- 00:32:12,354 --> 00:32:14,621
- Oh.
- 247
- 00:32:18,460 --> 00:32:20,392
- Go away! Go away!
- 248
- 00:32:20,394 --> 00:32:23,162
- Go away! Leave me alone!
- Leave me alone!
- 250
- 00:32:30,138 --> 00:32:31,473
- Go away!
- 251
- 00:32:37,378 --> 00:32:38,580
- Go away!
- 261
- 00:34:28,289 --> 00:34:29,358
- Theo.
- 262
- 00:34:31,360 --> 00:34:32,728
- Theo, come here.
- 264
- 00:34:46,942 --> 00:34:48,543
- They told me what happened.
- 265
- 00:34:48,909 --> 00:34:49,911
- Please,
- 266
- 00:34:51,346 --> 00:34:52,347
- tell me,
- 267
- 00:34:52,880 --> 00:34:54,216
- how do you feel?
- 268
- 00:34:56,684 --> 00:34:59,721
- I feel so well
- with you next to me.
- 269
- 00:35:02,724 --> 00:35:03,793
- So well...
- 270
- 00:35:04,592 --> 00:35:06,328
- I'd like to die like this.
- 272
- 00:35:09,297 --> 00:35:10,231
- When we were little,
- 273
- 00:35:10,233 --> 00:35:13,903
- I used to climb into bed
- with you, remember?
- 274
- 00:35:15,336 --> 00:35:16,539
- Yes, you did.
- 275
- 00:35:17,606 --> 00:35:18,975
- When it was getting cold.
- 276
- 00:35:26,581 --> 00:35:27,983
- How long will you stay?
- 277
- 00:35:28,884 --> 00:35:32,552
- Just today, I'm sorry.
- 278
- 00:35:32,554 --> 00:35:36,291
- I have to get back to Paris.
- So many things to do...
- 279
- 00:35:37,391 --> 00:35:38,994
- And they told me you were in
- 280
- 00:35:40,528 --> 00:35:42,965
- a hospital,
- and I took the first train.
- 281
- 00:35:46,034 --> 00:35:47,802
- Can't you stay any longer?
- 282
- 00:35:51,572 --> 00:35:53,308
- I can't, I'm sorry.
- 284
- 00:35:56,344 --> 00:35:59,481
- It took one day
- and a night to get here.
- 285
- 00:36:00,414 --> 00:36:02,849
- And I'm a married man now.
- 286
- 00:36:02,851 --> 00:36:04,583
- I know you are.
- 287
- 00:36:04,585 --> 00:36:06,755
- I'm very happy
- for Jo and you.
- 288
- 00:36:13,661 --> 00:36:14,696
- Vincent,
- 289
- 00:36:18,032 --> 00:36:20,700
- why did they put you here?
- 290
- 00:36:20,702 --> 00:36:23,639
- I have no idea, Theo.
- I swear to you.
- 292
- 00:36:27,041 --> 00:36:28,543
- There must be a reason.
- 293
- 00:36:31,679 --> 00:36:33,481
- From time to time,
- 294
- 00:36:35,516 --> 00:36:37,686
- I feel like
- I'm losing my mind.
- 295
- 00:36:39,887 --> 00:36:41,920
- Yes, my mind goes out of me,
- 296
- 00:36:41,922 --> 00:36:44,124
- I'm telling you.
- It goes out of me.
- 297
- 00:36:44,126 --> 00:36:45,528
- What do you mean?
- 298
- 00:36:46,628 --> 00:36:51,930
- They say that I scream
- in the streets, that I cry,
- 299
- 00:36:51,932 --> 00:36:57,036
- that I put black paint on
- my face to scare the children.
- 300
- 00:36:57,038 --> 00:37:00,809
- But I don't remember
- anything.
- 301
- 00:37:02,878 --> 00:37:04,113
- Anything except
- 302
- 00:37:06,081 --> 00:37:08,884
- the darkness and anxiety,
- 303
- 00:37:10,050 --> 00:37:11,721
- so they sent me here.
- 304
- 00:37:14,722 --> 00:37:17,360
- With really insane people.
- 305
- 00:37:19,494 --> 00:37:20,730
- Do you drink a lot?
- 306
- 00:37:28,936 --> 00:37:30,537
- I must tell you,
- 307
- 00:37:30,539 --> 00:37:32,942
- don't tell it
- to the doctors...
- 308
- 00:37:35,643 --> 00:37:38,677
- Theo,
- sometimes I have visions.
- 309
- 00:37:38,679 --> 00:37:40,447
- Who do you see?
- 310
- 00:37:40,449 --> 00:37:41,784
- It's hard to say.
- 311
- 00:37:42,818 --> 00:37:43,886
- Ghosts?
- 312
- 00:37:44,686 --> 00:37:45,855
- I don't know.
- 313
- 00:37:47,856 --> 00:37:49,925
- Flowers, sometimes,
- 314
- 00:37:51,126 --> 00:37:55,064
- and also angels, human beings.
- 315
- 00:37:56,197 --> 00:37:57,799
- It's confusing.
- 316
- 00:37:58,900 --> 00:38:01,668
- Sometimes they talk to me.
- 317
- 00:38:01,670 --> 00:38:03,135
- What do they say?
- 318
- 00:38:03,137 --> 00:38:05,070
- I don't understand them.
- 319
- 00:38:05,072 --> 00:38:08,109
- But it's frightening. They
- aren't always very nice.
- 320
- 00:38:11,880 --> 00:38:15,918
- I will talk to the doctors
- and see what can be done.
- 321
- 00:38:19,054 --> 00:38:20,722
- When I get like this,
- 322
- 00:38:22,858 --> 00:38:24,794
- I don't know
- what I'm capable of.
- 323
- 00:38:27,795 --> 00:38:29,197
- Maybe I could kill
- 324
- 00:38:31,500 --> 00:38:33,469
- and throw myself off a cliff.
- 327
- 00:39:14,876 --> 00:39:16,976
- THEO: Dear Paul,
- 328
- 00:39:16,978 --> 00:39:20,079
- I know you've been in correspondence
- with my brother Vincent,
- 329
- 00:39:20,081 --> 00:39:21,914
- and he is very much
- looking forward
- 330
- 00:39:21,916 --> 00:39:23,483
- to your arrival in Arles,
- 331
- 00:39:23,485 --> 00:39:28,021
- which I know has been postponed
- due to financial concerns.
- 332
- 00:39:28,023 --> 00:39:32,090
- I am prepared and committed to
- sending 250 francs each month
- 333
- 00:39:32,092 --> 00:39:34,594
- in exchange for one painting
- a month of yours,
- 334
- 00:39:34,596 --> 00:39:35,898
- at your discretion.
- 335
- 00:39:37,032 --> 00:39:38,831
- It would benefit
- Vincent greatly
- 336
- 00:39:38,833 --> 00:39:40,603
- to see you
- as soon as possible.
- 337
- 00:39:41,235 --> 00:39:42,936
- A warm handshake.
- 338
- 00:39:42,938 --> 00:39:46,242
- Enthusiastically,
- Theo van Gogh.
- 339
- 00:39:47,275 --> 00:39:48,974
- P.S.
- 340
- 00:39:48,976 --> 00:39:50,742
- Looking forward
- to your response
- 341
- 00:39:50,744 --> 00:39:52,280
- and to seeing
- your latest works.
- 342
- 00:39:57,152 --> 00:40:00,019
- Of all the miseries
- that afflict humanity,
- 343
- 00:40:00,021 --> 00:40:03,188
- nothing maddens me more
- than the lack of money.
- 344
- 00:40:03,190 --> 00:40:04,726
- But not tonight.
- 346
- 00:40:10,599 --> 00:40:11,800
- Another round, madame.
- 347
- 00:40:13,134 --> 00:40:14,135
- MADAME GINOUX: Gaby.
- 349
- 00:40:16,570 --> 00:40:21,076
- Some days, I feel
- like a beggar, but not today.
- 350
- 00:40:22,677 --> 00:40:24,711
- It's so good to see you,
- Vincent,
- 351
- 00:40:24,713 --> 00:40:25,912
- and this fine group.
- 352
- 00:40:25,914 --> 00:40:28,280
- I'm happy to see you, Paul.
- 353
- 00:40:28,282 --> 00:40:31,016
- But really, no one around
- here really likes me,
- 354
- 00:40:31,018 --> 00:40:32,818
- except Madame
- and Monsieur Ginoux.
- 355
- 00:40:32,820 --> 00:40:38,391
- Sometimes it's days
- before I speak to someone.
- 356
- 00:40:38,393 --> 00:40:40,128
- I've been waiting
- for this moment.
- 357
- 00:40:41,096 --> 00:40:42,961
- But you were so indecisive.
- 358
- 00:40:42,963 --> 00:40:44,732
- I'm glad
- you made up your mind.
- 359
- 00:40:46,134 --> 00:40:48,400
- Is your brother
- still sending you money?
- 360
- 00:40:48,402 --> 00:40:50,737
- 250 francs a month.
- 361
- 00:40:50,739 --> 00:40:51,740
- Not much.
- 362
- 00:40:52,641 --> 00:40:54,407
- He does what he can.
- 363
- 00:40:54,409 --> 00:40:56,175
- Did you make
- an arrangement with him?
- 364
- 00:40:56,177 --> 00:40:57,179
- Yeah.
- 365
- 00:40:58,213 --> 00:40:59,746
- He pays my expenses here,
- 366
- 00:40:59,748 --> 00:41:01,313
- and I send him
- a canvas a month.
- 367
- 00:41:01,315 --> 00:41:03,918
- - And you're happy with that?
- - It's all right.
- 368
- 00:41:04,885 --> 00:41:06,351
- It's acceptable.
- 369
- 00:41:06,353 --> 00:41:10,023
- You have
- such a compelling face.
- 370
- 00:41:10,025 --> 00:41:11,724
- Maybe you'd come over
- to the yellow house
- 371
- 00:41:11,726 --> 00:41:13,762
- and, uh, pose for me.
- 372
- 00:41:14,695 --> 00:41:15,797
- Maybe.
- 373
- 00:41:16,965 --> 00:41:18,300
- I'll take that as a yes.
- 376
- 00:41:28,710 --> 00:41:31,911
- Why do you always
- have to paint from nature?
- 377
- 00:41:31,913 --> 00:41:34,382
- I feel lost if I don't have
- something to look at.
- 378
- 00:41:36,150 --> 00:41:39,120
- I need something to see.
- There's so much to see.
- 379
- 00:41:39,887 --> 00:41:41,220
- Every time I look,
- 380
- 00:41:41,222 --> 00:41:43,789
- I see something
- I've never seen before.
- 381
- 00:41:43,791 --> 00:41:46,327
- Yes, but what you paint,
- what you do belongs to you.
- 382
- 00:41:47,461 --> 00:41:49,061
- You don't need to
- copy anything.
- 383
- 00:41:49,063 --> 00:41:50,262
- I don't copy.
- 384
- 00:41:50,264 --> 00:41:51,363
- I know,
- 385
- 00:41:51,365 --> 00:41:53,700
- but why don't you paint
- just what's in your mind?
- 386
- 00:41:53,702 --> 00:41:55,767
- What your brain sees?
- 387
- 00:41:55,769 --> 00:41:58,273
- Because the essence
- of nature is beauty.
- 388
- 00:41:59,074 --> 00:42:00,840
- GAUGUIN: What do you mean?
- 389
- 00:42:00,842 --> 00:42:02,008
- What do you mean
- what do I mean?
- 390
- 00:42:02,010 --> 00:42:03,909
- Why did you want to
- go to Madagascar?
- 391
- 00:42:03,911 --> 00:42:06,244
- To get away from society,
- from people.
- 392
- 00:42:06,246 --> 00:42:07,746
- That may have
- been part of it,
- 393
- 00:42:07,748 --> 00:42:09,715
- but you went there
- in search of beauty,
- 394
- 00:42:09,717 --> 00:42:11,851
- and nature
- was definitely there.
- 395
- 00:42:11,853 --> 00:42:14,320
- And it was different
- than what you knew before,
- 396
- 00:42:14,322 --> 00:42:17,092
- and it made your paintings
- look different.
- 397
- 00:42:18,259 --> 00:42:19,827
- When I look at nature,
- 398
- 00:42:20,728 --> 00:42:22,397
- I see more clearly,
- 399
- 00:42:23,498 --> 00:42:25,800
- the tie that unites us all.
- 400
- 00:42:27,068 --> 00:42:28,903
- A vibrating energy,
- 401
- 00:42:30,204 --> 00:42:31,804
- speaking in God's voice.
- 402
- 00:42:31,806 --> 00:42:34,273
- Sometimes it's so intense,
- I lose consciousness.
- 403
- 00:42:34,275 --> 00:42:36,508
- - Come on.
- - I swear to you.
- 404
- 00:42:36,510 --> 00:42:37,744
- After a while,
- 405
- 00:42:37,746 --> 00:42:41,748
- I wake up and I don't know
- where I am or what I'm doing.
- 406
- 00:42:41,750 --> 00:42:45,918
- It takes me some minutes
- to even remember my name.
- 407
- 00:42:45,920 --> 00:42:47,452
- Listen, Vincent,
- the time is coming
- 408
- 00:42:47,454 --> 00:42:49,222
- when painters
- won't need anymore
- 409
- 00:42:49,224 --> 00:42:51,456
- to look at models and sit down
- in front of nature.
- 410
- 00:42:51,458 --> 00:42:52,958
- You know why?
- 411
- 00:42:52,960 --> 00:42:55,762
- Because nature is what
- we see here in our heads.
- 412
- 00:42:55,764 --> 00:42:56,630
- Nothing else!
- 413
- 00:42:56,632 --> 00:42:58,831
- Without our eyes,
- there's no nature.
- 414
- 00:42:58,833 --> 00:43:00,999
- And none of us sees the world
- around us the same way.
- 415
- 00:43:01,001 --> 00:43:02,101
- We sit, you and I,
- 416
- 00:43:02,103 --> 00:43:03,436
- in front of
- the same landscape,
- 417
- 00:43:03,438 --> 00:43:06,204
- we don't see the same
- mountains, the same trees.
- 418
- 00:43:06,206 --> 00:43:07,273
- VINCENT: Well, that's
- what I'm saying.
- 419
- 00:43:07,275 --> 00:43:09,075
- The trees that I paint
- are mine.
- 420
- 00:43:09,077 --> 00:43:12,177
- Even the faces you paint
- are yours.
- 421
- 00:43:12,179 --> 00:43:14,246
- And they'll stay
- because of you.
- 422
- 00:43:14,248 --> 00:43:16,414
- People will be known
- because you painted them
- 423
- 00:43:16,416 --> 00:43:19,251
- and how you painted them,
- not because of who they are.
- 424
- 00:43:19,253 --> 00:43:20,487
- That's good.
- 425
- 00:43:20,489 --> 00:43:22,320
- And people will go to museums
- to see paintings of people,
- 426
- 00:43:22,322 --> 00:43:24,023
- not to see people
- who were painted.
- 427
- 00:43:24,025 --> 00:43:25,525
- You know,
- people don't always like
- 428
- 00:43:25,527 --> 00:43:27,195
- the way they look
- in my paintings.
- 429
- 00:43:28,963 --> 00:43:31,264
- We have to start a revolution.
- Do you understand?
- 430
- 00:43:31,266 --> 00:43:33,266
- Yes, we do.
- 431
- 00:43:33,268 --> 00:43:34,967
- Us, our generation.
- 432
- 00:43:34,969 --> 00:43:36,969
- We have to change entirely
- 433
- 00:43:36,971 --> 00:43:41,240
- the relation between painting
- and what you call nature.
- 434
- 00:43:41,242 --> 00:43:44,209
- Between painting and reality
- 435
- 00:43:44,211 --> 00:43:46,148
- because painted reality
- is its own reality.
- 436
- 00:43:47,981 --> 00:43:49,248
- VINCENT:
- You're right about that.
- 437
- 00:43:49,250 --> 00:43:51,983
- - GAUGUIN: The impressionists,
- 438
- 00:43:51,985 --> 00:43:54,086
- they're out of it,
- do you agree?
- 439
- 00:43:54,088 --> 00:43:56,389
- - VINCENT: Uh...
- - GAUGUIN: Come on.
- 440
- 00:43:56,391 --> 00:43:58,191
- They only paint their
- babies in their gardens.
- 441
- 00:43:58,193 --> 00:43:59,428
- They'll never
- go any further.
- 442
- 00:44:01,094 --> 00:44:03,595
- Seurat confounds
- painting with science.
- 443
- 00:44:03,597 --> 00:44:06,300
- He's lost himself
- in optical experiments.
- 444
- 00:44:07,501 --> 00:44:09,901
- There's nothing more
- to expect
- 445
- 00:44:09,903 --> 00:44:12,104
- from Renoir, Degas, Monet...
- 446
- 00:44:12,106 --> 00:44:12,972
- They repeat themselves.
- 447
- 00:44:12,974 --> 00:44:14,407
- They've given everything
- they could give.
- 448
- 00:44:14,409 --> 00:44:16,008
- VINCENT:
- You don't mean that.
- 449
- 00:44:16,010 --> 00:44:17,212
- You like Degas.
- 450
- 00:44:19,047 --> 00:44:21,516
- You have to say thank you
- for the paintings you like.
- 451
- 00:44:22,483 --> 00:44:23,916
- Monet's pretty good.
- 452
- 00:44:23,918 --> 00:44:24,920
- GAUGUIN: It's our turn.
- 453
- 00:44:25,853 --> 00:44:28,253
- We have a huge responsibility.
- 454
- 00:44:28,255 --> 00:44:30,158
- VINCENT: I still think
- Monet's pretty good.
- 455
- 00:44:34,061 --> 00:44:35,429
- You want to go to Martinique?
- 457
- 00:45:00,922 --> 00:45:02,157
- VINCENT:
- It's good to have you here.
- 462
- 00:46:23,471 --> 00:46:25,373
- Could you put your hand
- back how it was?
- 463
- 00:47:00,775 --> 00:47:02,041
- Thank you.
- 464
- 00:47:02,043 --> 00:47:03,378
- - Can I go?
- - GAUGUIN: You can go.
- 465
- 00:47:24,097 --> 00:47:26,400
- You have to plan
- your paintings slowly.
- 466
- 00:47:28,202 --> 00:47:29,237
- What's the rush?
- 467
- 00:47:30,405 --> 00:47:31,737
- Work calmly, slowly.
- 468
- 00:47:31,739 --> 00:47:36,541
- You're indoors, you're not
- outside in the wind and the noise.
- 469
- 00:47:36,543 --> 00:47:39,647
- Paintings have to be done
- in one clear gesture.
- 470
- 00:47:48,155 --> 00:47:50,088
- Think about the surface
- that you're painting on
- 471
- 00:47:50,090 --> 00:47:51,557
- and how the paint
- will sit on it.
- 472
- 00:47:51,559 --> 00:47:53,758
- You're changing things
- so fast,
- 473
- 00:47:53,760 --> 00:47:55,329
- you can't even see
- what you've done.
- 474
- 00:47:57,130 --> 00:47:58,632
- Paintings have to be
- painted fast.
- 476
- 00:48:39,172 --> 00:48:40,341
- VINCENT: Painters I look at...
- 477
- 00:48:44,545 --> 00:48:45,680
- Frans Hals,
- 478
- 00:48:53,387 --> 00:48:54,389
- Goya,
- 479
- 00:49:02,496 --> 00:49:03,565
- Velazquez,
- 480
- 00:49:08,436 --> 00:49:09,538
- Veronese,
- 481
- 00:49:18,846 --> 00:49:20,114
- Delacroix.
- 482
- 00:49:26,521 --> 00:49:30,392
- The painters I like all paint
- fast in one clear gesture,
- 483
- 00:49:31,159 --> 00:49:32,160
- each stroke.
- 484
- 00:49:33,927 --> 00:49:35,860
- You've heard of
- "a stroke of genius"?
- 485
- 00:49:35,862 --> 00:49:37,264
- Well, that's what it means.
- 486
- 00:49:38,865 --> 00:49:40,733
- You don't even
- paint that way.
- 487
- 00:49:40,735 --> 00:49:43,334
- You paint fast
- and you overpaint.
- 488
- 00:49:43,336 --> 00:49:46,171
- Your surface looks
- like it's made out of clay.
- 489
- 00:49:46,173 --> 00:49:48,309
- It's more like sculpture
- than painting.
- 490
- 00:50:00,788 --> 00:50:02,921
- GAUGUIN: You don't even
- paint like that.
- 491
- 00:50:02,923 --> 00:50:05,224
- You paint fast
- and then you overpaint.
- 492
- 00:50:05,226 --> 00:50:07,262
- Your surface looks
- like it's made out of clay.
- 493
- 00:50:08,663 --> 00:50:10,662
- It's more like sculpture
- than painting.
- 496
- 00:50:44,965 --> 00:50:47,268
- I'm telling you,
- you have to look inside.
- 497
- 00:50:48,501 --> 00:50:51,503
- You keep saying "look
- inside." I get it, I do.
- 498
- 00:50:51,505 --> 00:50:53,608
- You keep repeating yourself.
- 499
- 00:50:54,742 --> 00:50:56,675
- What do you think
- I'm doing?
- 500
- 00:50:56,677 --> 00:50:59,677
- I don't invent the picture.
- 501
- 00:50:59,679 --> 00:51:02,313
- I don't need
- to invent the picture.
- 502
- 00:51:02,315 --> 00:51:06,584
- I find it already in nature.
- I just have to free it.
- 503
- 00:51:06,586 --> 00:51:09,354
- All right, I'm just saying,
- first think about your surface
- 504
- 00:51:09,356 --> 00:51:11,490
- and how the paint
- will sit on it.
- 505
- 00:51:11,492 --> 00:51:14,425
- Get control
- over what you're doing.
- 506
- 00:51:14,427 --> 00:51:15,963
- Maybe you should
- work inside more.
- 507
- 00:51:17,364 --> 00:51:21,400
- I've spent all my life
- alone, in a room.
- 508
- 00:51:21,402 --> 00:51:26,938
- I need to go out
- and work to forget myself.
- 509
- 00:51:26,940 --> 00:51:28,074
- I want to be out of control.
- 510
- 00:51:28,076 --> 00:51:31,276
- - I need to be in a feverish state.
- 511
- 00:51:31,278 --> 00:51:33,345
- It's called the act
- of painting for a reason.
- 512
- 00:51:33,347 --> 00:51:34,682
- GAUGUIN: All right, calm down.
- 513
- 00:51:35,483 --> 00:51:37,016
- I don't want to calm down.
- 514
- 00:51:37,018 --> 00:51:39,385
- The faster I paint,
- the better I feel.
- 515
- 00:51:39,387 --> 00:51:41,423
- GAUGUIN: I can't stay here,
- Vincent.
- 516
- 00:51:42,389 --> 00:51:43,592
- What are you saying?
- 517
- 00:51:46,726 --> 00:51:48,329
- I can't stay in Arles.
- 518
- 00:51:49,597 --> 00:51:50,832
- I'll go soon.
- 519
- 00:51:54,835 --> 00:51:55,900
- What?
- 520
- 00:51:55,902 --> 00:51:57,503
- I've sold
- some paintings lately.
- 521
- 00:51:57,505 --> 00:51:58,871
- Maybe your brother told you?
- 522
- 00:51:58,873 --> 00:52:00,342
- And I have to
- get back to Paris.
- 523
- 00:52:06,880 --> 00:52:07,949
- Where are you going?
- 524
- 00:52:11,418 --> 00:52:12,453
- Vincent!
- 527
- 00:52:20,460 --> 00:52:24,429
- VINCENT: I've spent
- all my life alone, in a room.
- 528
- 00:52:24,431 --> 00:52:27,800
- - I need to go out and work...
- - GAUGUIN: What are you doing?
- 529
- 00:52:27,802 --> 00:52:29,967
- VINCENT: ...to forget myself.
- 530
- 00:52:29,969 --> 00:52:31,103
- - I want to be out of control.
- - GAUGUIN: What?
- 531
- 00:52:31,105 --> 00:52:34,106
- VINCENT: I need to be
- in a feverish state.
- 532
- 00:52:34,108 --> 00:52:36,108
- It's called the act
- of painting for a reason.
- 533
- 00:52:36,110 --> 00:52:38,443
- GAUGUIN: All right, calm down.
- 534
- 00:52:38,445 --> 00:52:40,079
- VINCENT:
- I don't want to calm down.
- 535
- 00:52:40,081 --> 00:52:42,046
- The faster I paint,
- the better I feel.
- 537
- 00:52:46,353 --> 00:52:47,588
- Why are you crying?
- 538
- 00:52:50,358 --> 00:52:52,360
- VINCENT: What did I do?
- Where did I go wrong?
- 539
- 00:52:52,760 --> 00:52:53,726
- Nothing.
- 540
- 00:52:53,728 --> 00:52:56,364
- You have nothing to do
- with this decision.
- 541
- 00:52:58,632 --> 00:53:01,367
- Vincent,
- we can't live side by side.
- 542
- 00:53:01,369 --> 00:53:02,668
- Our temperaments
- are incompatible,
- 543
- 00:53:02,670 --> 00:53:03,872
- you must admit that.
- 544
- 00:53:06,440 --> 00:53:08,807
- And you have to understand
- 545
- 00:53:08,809 --> 00:53:11,709
- my reputation
- is established now.
- 546
- 00:53:11,711 --> 00:53:13,981
- I can't live
- in a country town anymore.
- 547
- 00:53:15,583 --> 00:53:18,117
- I have to be around people,
- for now.
- 549
- 00:53:21,389 --> 00:53:23,988
- Besides,
- I don't like it here.
- 550
- 00:53:23,990 --> 00:53:28,496
- You're surrounded by
- stupid, wicked, ignorant people.
- 551
- 00:53:31,798 --> 00:53:33,634
- Come on, why are you
- being so dramatic?
- 553
- 00:54:00,527 --> 00:54:01,762
- Please don't go.
- 554
- 00:54:03,030 --> 00:54:04,566
- It's great having you here.
- 555
- 00:54:05,766 --> 00:54:07,166
- GAUGUIN: I've sold
- some paintings lately.
- 556
- 00:54:07,168 --> 00:54:08,733
- Maybe your brother told you?
- 557
- 00:54:08,735 --> 00:54:11,836
- Don't do it to me!
- I beg you.
- 558
- 00:54:11,838 --> 00:54:13,938
- - No!
- - GAUGUIN: Nothing.
- 559
- 00:54:13,940 --> 00:54:16,842
- You have nothing to do
- with this decision.
- 560
- 00:54:16,844 --> 00:54:18,844
- - Where are you going?
- 561
- 00:54:18,846 --> 00:54:20,813
- Vincent, we can't live
- side by side.
- 562
- 00:54:20,815 --> 00:54:21,847
- Vincent!
- 563
- 00:54:21,849 --> 00:54:23,048
- Our temperaments
- are incompatible,
- 564
- 00:54:23,050 --> 00:54:24,682
- you must admit that.
- 566
- 00:54:26,586 --> 00:54:28,920
- And you have to understand
- 567
- 00:54:28,922 --> 00:54:31,824
- my reputation
- is established now.
- 568
- 00:54:31,826 --> 00:54:34,028
- I can't live
- in a country town anymore.
- 569
- 00:54:35,728 --> 00:54:38,599
- I have to be around people,
- for now.
- 570
- 00:54:40,099 --> 00:54:41,499
- What?
- 571
- 00:54:41,501 --> 00:54:44,101
- Besides,
- I don't like it here.
- 572
- 00:54:44,103 --> 00:54:48,576
- You're surrounded by stupid,
- wicked, ignorant people.
- 574
- 00:54:51,846 --> 00:54:53,715
- Come on,
- why are you being so dramatic?
- 576
- 00:55:01,588 --> 00:55:02,623
- VINCENT: What are you saying?
- 577
- 00:55:05,960 --> 00:55:07,693
- GAUGUIN:
- I can't stay in Arles.
- 579
- 00:55:11,865 --> 00:55:13,701
- VINCENT: There's something
- strange about me.
- 580
- 00:55:14,702 --> 00:55:17,235
- Sometimes I don't know
- 581
- 00:55:17,237 --> 00:55:19,640
- what I've done
- or what I've said.
- 582
- 00:55:20,907 --> 00:55:23,742
- About Gauguin, for instance,
- 583
- 00:55:23,744 --> 00:55:25,747
- what happened
- right before he left.
- 584
- 00:55:26,981 --> 00:55:28,716
- We had some fights...
- 585
- 00:55:29,750 --> 00:55:31,816
- I...
- 586
- 00:55:31,818 --> 00:55:35,722
- Maybe I hurt him.
- I don't know how.
- 587
- 00:55:36,757 --> 00:55:37,959
- I do know
- 588
- 00:55:39,527 --> 00:55:42,293
- that I took a razor
- 589
- 00:55:42,295 --> 00:55:45,264
- and I cut off
- one of my ears, yes.
- 590
- 00:55:45,266 --> 00:55:48,766
- I cut it off, one of my ears.
- Blood all over the place.
- 591
- 00:55:48,768 --> 00:55:50,604
- No one else did it, I did it.
- 592
- 00:55:52,139 --> 00:55:56,510
- I wanted to give it to Gauguin
- with my apologies.
- 593
- 00:55:57,710 --> 00:55:58,779
- Why?
- 594
- 00:56:00,681 --> 00:56:01,816
- God knows.
- 595
- 00:56:03,717 --> 00:56:05,182
- And I thought,
- 596
- 00:56:05,184 --> 00:56:06,751
- she would know where Paul was,
- 597
- 00:56:06,753 --> 00:56:09,954
- so I gave my ear to the girl
- at the bar, to Gaby.
- 598
- 00:56:09,956 --> 00:56:11,789
- She was scared,
- all the blood...
- 599
- 00:56:11,791 --> 00:56:14,959
- I think she thought
- I was going to kill her.
- 600
- 00:56:14,961 --> 00:56:18,766
- So, she called the police
- and they put me here.
- 601
- 00:56:21,168 --> 00:56:23,872
- And what would you have done,
- as a police officer?
- 602
- 00:56:25,271 --> 00:56:27,608
- You can leave. It's all right.
- 604
- 00:56:34,347 --> 00:56:35,717
- I...
- 605
- 00:56:38,152 --> 00:56:39,717
- This is a small town, Vincent.
- 606
- 00:56:39,719 --> 00:56:41,320
- Everybody's watching
- what you're doing,
- 607
- 00:56:41,322 --> 00:56:42,891
- even more in a small town.
- 608
- 00:56:43,791 --> 00:56:45,093
- You're a stranger here.
- 609
- 00:56:46,693 --> 00:56:48,630
- You drink too much.
- Much too much.
- 610
- 00:56:50,130 --> 00:56:52,229
- Then you get hysterical,
- out of control,
- 611
- 00:56:52,231 --> 00:56:55,068
- and yes, one night you cut off
- one of your ears.
- 612
- 00:56:56,704 --> 00:56:57,906
- Can you tell me why?
- 613
- 00:57:00,007 --> 00:57:02,076
- My friend was
- about to leave me.
- 614
- 00:57:03,277 --> 00:57:04,913
- He was about to leave.
- 615
- 00:57:06,079 --> 00:57:07,311
- And cutting one
- of your ears
- 616
- 00:57:07,313 --> 00:57:09,016
- was a way to keep him
- next to you?
- 617
- 00:57:10,951 --> 00:57:12,186
- That doesn't make sense.
- 618
- 00:57:17,291 --> 00:57:20,028
- Was it a kind of gift
- or a sacrifice or what?
- 619
- 00:57:22,161 --> 00:57:24,028
- What were you trying
- to achieve?
- 620
- 00:57:24,030 --> 00:57:25,099
- VINCENT: I don't know.
- 621
- 00:57:26,800 --> 00:57:28,202
- It might help
- to talk about it.
- 622
- 00:57:29,402 --> 00:57:30,904
- Try to tell me. I...
- 623
- 00:57:32,373 --> 00:57:34,208
- I've never seen
- anything like this before.
- 624
- 00:57:36,043 --> 00:57:37,711
- But I'd like to help you.
- 625
- 00:57:39,746 --> 00:57:42,015
- There's something inside me.
- I don't know what it is.
- 626
- 00:57:47,788 --> 00:57:50,354
- What I see, nobody else sees
- and sometimes it frightens me.
- 627
- 00:57:50,356 --> 00:57:52,356
- I think I'm losing my mind.
- 628
- 00:57:52,358 --> 00:57:55,896
- But then I say to myself,
- 629
- 00:57:57,898 --> 00:58:00,231
- "I'll show what I see
- 630
- 00:58:00,233 --> 00:58:02,867
- "to my human brothers
- who can't see it."
- 631
- 00:58:02,869 --> 00:58:04,403
- It's a privilege.
- 632
- 00:58:04,405 --> 00:58:06,307
- I can give them hope
- and consolation.
- 633
- 00:58:09,242 --> 00:58:11,208
- You're confusing people.
- 634
- 00:58:11,210 --> 00:58:13,914
- You're confusing yourself
- with your paintings.
- 635
- 00:58:15,282 --> 00:58:16,851
- I am my paintings.
- 636
- 00:58:20,253 --> 00:58:22,656
- What do you mean
- by consolation and hope?
- 637
- 00:58:24,891 --> 00:58:26,858
- You might be asking
- too much of people.
- 638
- 00:58:26,860 --> 00:58:28,959
- VINCENT: I'd like to share
- my vision with people
- 639
- 00:58:28,961 --> 00:58:31,032
- who can't see what I see
- the way I see.
- 640
- 00:58:31,764 --> 00:58:32,933
- Yes, but why?
- 641
- 00:58:34,902 --> 00:58:39,336
- Because my vision is closer
- to the reality of the world.
- 642
- 00:58:39,338 --> 00:58:44,077
- I can make people feel
- what it's like to be alive.
- 643
- 00:58:45,945 --> 00:58:48,280
- Do you feel like
- they don't feel alive?
- 644
- 00:58:48,282 --> 00:58:49,784
- VINCENT: Yes, I do.
- 645
- 00:58:54,088 --> 00:58:55,487
- And you think
- you can make them
- 646
- 00:58:55,489 --> 00:58:56,954
- feel that through painting?
- 647
- 00:58:56,956 --> 00:59:00,260
- Yes. Yes, absolutely.
- 648
- 00:59:01,494 --> 00:59:02,829
- Yes.
- 649
- 00:59:05,231 --> 00:59:10,034
- Gaby said your ear
- was wrapped in this,
- 650
- 00:59:10,036 --> 00:59:12,406
- and she was supposed to
- give it to Paul.
- 651
- 00:59:14,440 --> 00:59:16,974
- "Remember me,"
- what did you mean by that?
- 653
- 00:59:22,882 --> 00:59:24,182
- Maybe you were trying
- to show him
- 654
- 00:59:24,184 --> 00:59:25,450
- what he meant to you
- through that act,
- 655
- 00:59:25,452 --> 00:59:27,855
- but that was something
- you couldn't see.
- 656
- 00:59:31,190 --> 00:59:33,023
- I didn't want him to leave.
- 657
- 00:59:33,025 --> 00:59:36,193
- It was a way to get him back.
- 658
- 00:59:36,195 --> 00:59:39,733
- Jesus said, "If thy hand
- offend thee, cut it off."
- 659
- 00:59:40,934 --> 00:59:42,133
- So you cut off your ear
- 660
- 00:59:42,135 --> 00:59:46,137
- because you couldn't bear
- to hear what Paul was saying?
- 661
- 00:59:46,139 --> 00:59:49,409
- I believe I have
- a menacing spirit around me.
- 662
- 00:59:50,409 --> 00:59:52,045
- An invisible being.
- 663
- 00:59:54,815 --> 00:59:56,818
- I feel it, I don't see it.
- 664
- 00:59:58,117 --> 01:00:00,552
- He speaks to me
- and threatens me.
- 665
- 01:00:00,554 --> 01:00:04,389
- And all he wants to do is
- plunge a knife into my heart.
- 666
- 01:00:04,391 --> 01:00:08,159
- I saw him and I tried to
- cut him out of myself.
- 667
- 01:00:08,161 --> 01:00:11,061
- So that's the reason
- why you cut off your ear.
- 669
- 01:00:15,501 --> 01:00:17,302
- Your vision of the world,
- as you say,
- 670
- 01:00:17,304 --> 01:00:18,740
- is quite frightening.
- 671
- 01:00:19,306 --> 01:00:20,340
- Isn't it?
- 672
- 01:00:20,940 --> 01:00:23,008
- Yes.
- 673
- 01:00:23,010 --> 01:00:25,379
- I'm terrified he'll
- come back.
- 674
- 01:00:26,980 --> 01:00:27,981
- I see.
- 676
- 01:00:32,018 --> 01:00:33,286
- So, listen to me.
- 677
- 01:00:34,320 --> 01:00:36,387
- We'll send you to
- Saint-Remy.
- 678
- 01:00:36,389 --> 01:00:38,423
- - Where?
- - Saint-Remy.
- 679
- 01:00:38,425 --> 01:00:41,092
- A very nice place.
- 680
- 01:00:41,094 --> 01:00:44,362
- The best we have around here.
- You'll be very well-treated.
- 681
- 01:00:44,364 --> 01:00:47,132
- - Is it a jail?
- - No, not at all.
- 682
- 01:00:47,134 --> 01:00:48,436
- It's a voluntary asylum.
- 683
- 01:00:49,869 --> 01:00:51,269
- It's your choice,
- 684
- 01:00:51,271 --> 01:00:52,336
- but you'll be subjected
- 685
- 01:00:52,338 --> 01:00:54,107
- to their rules
- and methods of care.
- 686
- 01:00:55,576 --> 01:00:57,778
- I do think you can find
- some peace there.
- 687
- 01:00:59,045 --> 01:01:00,311
- And when you're
- less overexcited,
- 688
- 01:01:00,313 --> 01:01:02,414
- you can even paint there.
- 689
- 01:01:02,416 --> 01:01:04,018
- Without painting,
- I can't live.
- 690
- 01:01:05,152 --> 01:01:06,320
- I believe you.
- 691
- 01:01:10,590 --> 01:01:15,260
- Will you come and see me?
- 692
- 01:01:15,262 --> 01:01:18,563
- Of course.
- At least once a week.
- 693
- 01:01:18,565 --> 01:01:20,231
- And you're sure that, um,
- 694
- 01:01:20,233 --> 01:01:22,235
- I'll be allowed to paint
- there? You're sure?
- 695
- 01:01:22,969 --> 01:01:24,070
- Yes.
- 696
- 01:01:25,137 --> 01:01:26,336
- But first, when you get there,
- 697
- 01:01:26,338 --> 01:01:28,509
- you'll have to stop drinking
- and take some medicine.
- 698
- 01:01:31,878 --> 01:01:32,880
- For how long?
- 699
- 01:01:33,914 --> 01:01:35,182
- That will depend on you.
- 700
- 01:01:38,452 --> 01:01:40,488
- Will you do as I say?
- May I count on you?
- 701
- 01:01:44,992 --> 01:01:46,057
- Can you stay for a minute?
- 702
- 01:01:46,059 --> 01:01:47,025
- I promised your brother
- 703
- 01:01:47,027 --> 01:01:48,563
- I'd send him a drawing
- of what you've done.
- 704
- 01:01:50,530 --> 01:01:52,329
- Don't move, please. I'm going
- to take your bandage off.
- 705
- 01:01:52,331 --> 01:01:53,967
- VINCENT: No, I can do it.
- 708
- 01:03:15,382 --> 01:03:18,016
- ALBERT: Beneath skies
- that sometimes dazzle
- 709
- 01:03:18,018 --> 01:03:21,219
- like faceted sapphires
- or turquoises,
- 710
- 01:03:21,221 --> 01:03:23,688
- beneath the incessant
- and formidable streaming
- 711
- 01:03:23,690 --> 01:03:26,324
- of every conceivable effect
- of light.
- 712
- 01:03:26,326 --> 01:03:29,059
- In heavy, flaming,
- burning atmospheres,
- 713
- 01:03:29,061 --> 01:03:30,128
- there is the disquieting
- 714
- 01:03:30,130 --> 01:03:32,697
- and disturbing display
- of strange nature
- 715
- 01:03:32,699 --> 01:03:35,333
- that is
- at once entirely realistic
- 716
- 01:03:35,335 --> 01:03:37,302
- and yet almost supernatural.
- 717
- 01:03:37,304 --> 01:03:40,572
- Often excessive nature
- where everything,
- 718
- 01:03:40,574 --> 01:03:44,075
- beings and things, shadows
- and lights, forms and colors,
- 719
- 01:03:44,077 --> 01:03:46,510
- rears and rises up
- with a raging will
- 720
- 01:03:46,512 --> 01:03:49,146
- to howl its own essential song
- 721
- 01:03:49,148 --> 01:03:50,548
- in the most intense
- 722
- 01:03:50,550 --> 01:03:53,450
- and fiercely
- high-pitched timbre.
- 723
- 01:03:53,452 --> 01:03:55,420
- It is matter
- and all of nature,
- 724
- 01:03:55,422 --> 01:03:57,088
- frenetically contorted.
- 725
- 01:03:57,090 --> 01:04:00,758
- It is form becoming nightmare,
- color becoming flames,
- 726
- 01:04:00,760 --> 01:04:03,394
- light turning
- into conflagration,
- 727
- 01:04:03,396 --> 01:04:06,130
- life into burning fever.
- 728
- 01:04:06,132 --> 01:04:08,766
- Such is the impression
- left upon the retina
- 729
- 01:04:08,768 --> 01:04:11,302
- when it first views
- the strange, intense
- 730
- 01:04:11,304 --> 01:04:14,271
- and feverish work
- of Vincent van Gogh.
- 731
- 01:04:14,273 --> 01:04:16,240
- How far are we, are we not,
- 732
- 01:04:16,242 --> 01:04:19,209
- from the beautiful,
- great tradition of art?
- 733
- 01:04:19,211 --> 01:04:20,644
- Never has there been a painter
- 734
- 01:04:20,646 --> 01:04:23,280
- whose art appeals so directly
- to the senses,
- 735
- 01:04:23,282 --> 01:04:27,217
- from the indefinable aroma
- of his sincerity to flesh
- 736
- 01:04:27,219 --> 01:04:29,354
- and the matter of his paint.
- 737
- 01:04:29,356 --> 01:04:32,356
- This robust and true artist,
- Vincent van Gogh,
- 738
- 01:04:32,358 --> 01:04:33,760
- towers above the rest.
- 739
- 01:04:35,128 --> 01:04:37,231
- MAN: Cafe. Cafe.
- 741
- 01:04:40,400 --> 01:04:42,269
- - Cafe.
- - Put water on him!
- 742
- 01:04:51,244 --> 01:04:52,579
- You are the painter?
- 743
- 01:04:54,547 --> 01:04:55,782
- Uh, yes.

- - Are all the painters crazy?
- - Cafe.
- 746
- 01:05:02,856 --> 01:05:06,193
- VINCENT: Maybe just the good ones.
- I really don't know.
- 747
- 01:05:08,527 --> 01:05:11,229
- - Hmm.
- - MAN: Cafe.
- 748
- 01:05:11,231 --> 01:05:14,666
- I'm an army man.
- I was a soldier.
- 749
- 01:05:14,668 --> 01:05:17,235
- VINCENT:
- Are all soldiers crazy?
- 750
- 01:05:17,237 --> 01:05:21,238
- Oh, no, soldiers are
- not crazy, but officers are.
- 751
- 01:05:21,240 --> 01:05:24,277
- - All the officers are insane.
- 753
- 01:05:27,014 --> 01:05:32,217
- When they made me a sergeant,
- I started to feel different.

- MAN: Cafe. Cafe. Cafe.
- 755
- 01:05:35,255 --> 01:05:38,356
- And when I became secretary
- to the general,
- 756
- 01:05:38,358 --> 01:05:39,757
- I had all the keys.
- 757
- 01:05:39,759 --> 01:05:41,327
- Can you see it?
- 758
- 01:05:42,394 --> 01:05:43,760
- The keys.
- 759
- 01:05:43,762 --> 01:05:45,262
- VINCENT: Yes.
- 760
- 01:05:45,264 --> 01:05:48,701
- The keys to all the dossiers
- of all the officers.
- 761
- 01:05:49,768 --> 01:05:52,737
- And I can tell you
- they are all crazy.
- 762
- 01:05:52,739 --> 01:05:57,711
- They've all killed,
- tortured, mutilated, raped.

- MAN: Cafe. Cafe. Cafe.
- 764
- 01:06:03,583 --> 01:06:05,617
- VINCENT:
- Where were you stationed?
- 765
- 01:06:05,619 --> 01:06:08,586
- Oh, it's a faraway place.
- 766
- 01:06:08,588 --> 01:06:10,255
- It's called Tonkin.
- 768
- 01:06:12,525 --> 01:06:15,228
- And years ago, during the war,
- 770
- 01:06:17,898 --> 01:06:21,869
- there were many,
- many tunnels were dug.
- 771
- 01:06:25,338 --> 01:06:29,376
- And I knew a Tonkinese girl
- who was born in a tunnel.

- 01:06:37,184 --> 01:06:39,586
- Twelve years, gone.
- 776
- 01:06:47,494 --> 01:06:50,297
- Can you imagine
- that you were a painter,
- 777
- 01:06:52,632 --> 01:06:54,568
- not seeing the snow,
- 778
- 01:06:56,503 --> 01:07:00,207
- not knowing what it was,
- what it meant?
- 779
- 01:07:00,673 --> 01:07:01,842
- Twelve years.
- 780
- 01:07:02,943 --> 01:07:06,276
- MAN: Cafe. Cafe. Cafe.
- 781
- 01:07:06,278 --> 01:07:07,778
- Oh...
- 782
- 01:07:07,780 --> 01:07:10,851
- Hey, shut up, shut up.
- Shut up!
- 783
- 01:07:14,554 --> 01:07:15,923
- What do you paint?
- 784
- 01:07:18,625 --> 01:07:19,793
- Sunlight.
- 790
- 01:10:42,561 --> 01:10:43,663
- VINCENT: Look at me.
- 791
- 01:10:44,930 --> 01:10:46,129
- Please.
- 793
- 01:10:58,877 --> 01:10:59,880
- VINCENT: Oui.
- 794
- 01:11:25,771 --> 01:11:26,774
- VINCENT: Oui.
- 796
- 01:11:48,560 --> 01:11:49,762
- No...
- 802
- 01:13:03,101 --> 01:13:04,604
- GAUGUIN: My dear Vincent,
- 803
- 01:13:05,604 --> 01:13:06,970
- I've looked most
- attentively
- 804
- 01:13:06,972 --> 01:13:09,106
- at your works
- since we parted.
- 805
- 01:13:09,108 --> 01:13:10,174
- First at your
- brother's place
- 806
- 01:13:10,176 --> 01:13:13,311
- and then
- at Independence Exhibition.
- 807
- 01:13:13,313 --> 01:13:15,580
- It's above all
- at this latter place
- 808
- 01:13:15,582 --> 01:13:18,214
- that one can properly judge
- what you do.
- 809
- 01:13:18,216 --> 01:13:21,619
- Either because of things
- positioned beside each other,
- 810
- 01:13:21,621 --> 01:13:23,257
- or because of
- neighboring works.
- 811
- 01:13:25,057 --> 01:13:27,959
- I offer you
- my sincere compliments.
- 812
- 01:13:27,961 --> 01:13:29,193
- And for many artists,
- 813
- 01:13:29,195 --> 01:13:31,664
- you are the most remarkable
- in the exhibition.
- 814
- 01:13:32,931 --> 01:13:34,031
- With things from nature,
- 815
- 01:13:34,033 --> 01:13:35,536
- you're the only one there
- who thinks.
- 816
- 01:13:37,203 --> 01:13:38,602
- I've talked about it
- with your brother,
- 817
- 01:13:38,604 --> 01:13:40,937
- and there's one that I would
- like to exchange with you
- 818
- 01:13:40,939 --> 01:13:42,275
- for one thing of your choice.
- 819
- 01:13:44,310 --> 01:13:46,143
- I hesitated greatly
- to write to you
- 820
- 01:13:46,145 --> 01:13:48,682
- knowing that you had just had
- a rather long crisis.
- 821
- 01:13:49,615 --> 01:13:50,615
- So, please don't reply
- to me
- 822
- 01:13:50,617 --> 01:13:52,950
- until you feel
- completely strong.
- 823
- 01:13:52,952 --> 01:13:55,251
- Let's hope that, with the
- warm weather that will return,
- 824
- 01:13:55,253 --> 01:13:57,254
- you're going to get well
- at last.
- 825
- 01:13:57,256 --> 01:13:59,126
- "The winter
- is always dangerous to you.
- 826
- 01:14:00,859 --> 01:14:04,063
- "Cordially, ever yours,
- Paul Gauguin."
- 829
- 01:15:07,060 --> 01:15:08,228
- GUARD: Van Gogh!
- 830
- 01:15:09,194 --> 01:15:10,296
- Van Gogh!
- 831
- 01:15:12,731 --> 01:15:14,001
- Not here, there.
- 832
- 01:15:15,333 --> 01:15:16,836
- There. There.
- 833
- 01:15:38,457 --> 01:15:39,826
- Follow me.
- 834
- 01:16:18,497 --> 01:16:20,099
- - Here he is.
- - Thank you.
- 835
- 01:16:21,833 --> 01:16:23,103
- Please help me take it off.
- 836
- 01:16:38,518 --> 01:16:39,853
- Thank you.
- 837
- 01:16:42,188 --> 01:16:44,021
- - Better?
- - Yes.
- 838
- 01:16:44,023 --> 01:16:46,159
- Come, sit with me. Talk to me.
- 839
- 01:16:47,460 --> 01:16:48,994
- Please.
- 840
- 01:16:57,869 --> 01:16:59,405
- I suppose you know
- why you're here.
- 841
- 01:17:02,240 --> 01:17:04,744
- Talking to you now?
- 842
- 01:17:07,012 --> 01:17:09,312
- To get better.
- 843
- 01:17:09,314 --> 01:17:12,085
- Or because I walked out
- of the asylum.
- 844
- 01:17:14,086 --> 01:17:15,989
- What happened
- on the road to Arles?
- 845
- 01:17:17,256 --> 01:17:18,525
- VINCENT: I don't remember.
- 846
- 01:17:20,025 --> 01:17:21,461
- You did walk out
- of the asylum.
- 847
- 01:17:23,496 --> 01:17:25,265
- I wanted to go out.
- 848
- 01:17:30,469 --> 01:17:33,236
- The townspeople of Arles have
- signed a petition against you.
- 849
- 01:17:33,238 --> 01:17:35,104
- They don't want you
- to come back there.
- 850
- 01:17:35,106 --> 01:17:36,542
- VINCENT: Yes, I know.
- 851
- 01:17:42,480 --> 01:17:44,951
- - Did you ever molest a child?
- - No. Never.
- 852
- 01:17:50,021 --> 01:17:51,354
- Did you cut off
- one of your ears
- 853
- 01:17:51,356 --> 01:17:52,555
- to give it to a prostitute?
- 854
- 01:17:52,557 --> 01:17:54,625
- Is that true?
- 855
- 01:17:54,627 --> 01:17:57,497
- Yes, I did. But Gaby's
- not a prostitute.
- 856
- 01:17:58,631 --> 01:18:00,865
- Why did you do that?
- 857
- 01:18:00,867 --> 01:18:04,237
- I wanted her to
- give it to a friend of mine.
- 858
- 01:18:05,404 --> 01:18:06,573
- And she did?
- 859
- 01:18:08,073 --> 01:18:09,308
- I don't know.
- 860
- 01:18:12,278 --> 01:18:14,181
- And that was a strange offer,
- wasn't it?
- 861
- 01:18:17,182 --> 01:18:18,585
- Do you feel angry sometimes?
- 862
- 01:18:22,889 --> 01:18:24,257
- Yes.
- 863
- 01:18:26,591 --> 01:18:28,194
- And what do you do then?
- 864
- 01:18:29,328 --> 01:18:31,094
- I go out,
- 865
- 01:18:31,096 --> 01:18:35,165
- look at a blade of grass
- or a branch of a fig tree
- 866
- 01:18:35,167 --> 01:18:36,570
- in order to calm down.
- 867
- 01:18:37,936 --> 01:18:38,939
- And it works?
- 868
- 01:18:39,604 --> 01:18:42,071
- Yes.
- 869
- 01:18:42,073 --> 01:18:45,845
- I feel God is nature
- and nature is beauty.
- 870
- 01:18:53,152 --> 01:18:55,055
- I've seen you
- in the garden, painting.
- 871
- 01:18:56,354 --> 01:18:57,420
- And I've heard from others
- 872
- 01:18:57,422 --> 01:18:58,625
- that you say
- you were a painter.
- 873
- 01:19:00,993 --> 01:19:02,329
- Yes, that's what I am.
- 874
- 01:19:04,630 --> 01:19:06,065
- Why do you say that?
- 875
- 01:19:07,332 --> 01:19:08,464
- Do you have a gift
- for painting?
- 876
- 01:19:08,466 --> 01:19:09,536
- Yes.
- 877
- 01:19:11,569 --> 01:19:13,472
- Where does this gift
- come from?
- 878
- 01:19:15,307 --> 01:19:16,941
- Would you say that
- 879
- 01:19:16,943 --> 01:19:18,442
- God gave you
- the gift of painting?
- 880
- 01:19:18,444 --> 01:19:21,047
- Yes, He did. It's the only
- gift He gave me.
- 881
- 01:19:33,158 --> 01:19:34,360
- Did you paint this?
- 882
- 01:19:35,194 --> 01:19:36,563
- VINCENT: Yes, I did.
- 883
- 01:19:38,163 --> 01:19:39,729
- PRIEST: And you call it
- a painting?
- 884
- 01:19:39,731 --> 01:19:41,598
- VINCENT: Yes, of course.
- 885
- 01:19:41,600 --> 01:19:43,733
- Tell me frankly because
- I'd like to understand.
- 886
- 01:19:43,735 --> 01:19:45,372
- Why do you say
- you're a painter?
- 887
- 01:19:46,137 --> 01:19:47,306
- Because I paint.
- 888
- 01:19:48,407 --> 01:19:50,240
- I love painting.
- I have to paint.
- 889
- 01:19:50,242 --> 01:19:52,142
- I've always been a painter.
- 890
- 01:19:52,144 --> 01:19:53,313
- That, I know.
- 891
- 01:19:54,313 --> 01:19:55,347
- A born painter?
- 892
- 01:19:56,716 --> 01:19:58,051
- Yes.
- 893
- 01:19:59,118 --> 01:20:00,153
- How do you know?
- 894
- 01:20:03,021 --> 01:20:04,722
- Because I can't do
- anything else.
- 895
- 01:20:04,724 --> 01:20:06,092
- And believe me, I've tried.
- 896
- 01:20:14,300 --> 01:20:15,566
- PRIEST:
- So, God gave you a gift
- 897
- 01:20:15,568 --> 01:20:16,970
- so you could paint this?
- 898
- 01:20:18,503 --> 01:20:19,939
- VINCENT: Yes.
- 899
- 01:20:23,074 --> 01:20:25,545
- But don't you see...
- 900
- 01:20:26,578 --> 01:20:29,114
- Now look, carefully. Please.
- 901
- 01:20:31,082 --> 01:20:33,384
- I don't want to
- hurt your feelings,
- 902
- 01:20:33,386 --> 01:20:35,155
- but don't you see
- that this painting is...
- 903
- 01:20:37,256 --> 01:20:39,259
- How can I say...
- 904
- 01:20:41,426 --> 01:20:42,695
- Unpleasant.
- 905
- 01:20:43,261 --> 01:20:44,463
- It's ugly.
- 906
- 01:20:46,131 --> 01:20:47,764
- Why would God give me a gift
- 907
- 01:20:47,766 --> 01:20:50,470
- to paint
- ugly and disturbing things?
- 908
- 01:20:55,140 --> 01:20:56,308
- Sometimes I...
- 909
- 01:20:58,543 --> 01:21:00,613
- Feel so far away
- from everything.
- 910
- 01:21:06,118 --> 01:21:07,754
- Does anybody
- buy your paintings?
- 911
- 01:21:08,421 --> 01:21:09,486
- No.
- 912
- 01:21:09,488 --> 01:21:12,192
- - So, you're poor?
- - Yes, rather poor.
- 913
- 01:21:14,560 --> 01:21:16,029
- How do you live?
- 914
- 01:21:17,630 --> 01:21:21,764
- Well, my brother, Theo,
- pays for me to be here.
- 915
- 01:21:21,766 --> 01:21:24,104
- But he's not
- a rich man either.
- 916
- 01:21:27,605 --> 01:21:31,174
- So, you believe
- that God gave you this gift
- 917
- 01:21:31,176 --> 01:21:32,746
- because He wants
- to keep you in misery?
- 918
- 01:21:34,412 --> 01:21:35,581
- Huh.
- 919
- 01:21:36,815 --> 01:21:38,617
- I never thought about it
- that way.
- 920
- 01:21:40,252 --> 01:21:41,621
- And which way do you think?
- 921
- 01:21:44,256 --> 01:21:46,159
- Sometimes I think...
- 922
- 01:21:46,792 --> 01:21:48,224
- Yes?
- 923
- 01:21:48,226 --> 01:21:49,729
- Maybe, maybe...
- 924
- 01:21:51,396 --> 01:21:52,495
- Go on.
- 925
- 01:21:52,497 --> 01:21:54,666
- Maybe He chose the wrong time.
- 926
- 01:21:57,336 --> 01:21:58,568
- What do you mean
- the wrong time?
- 927
- 01:21:58,570 --> 01:22:00,504
- Maybe God made me a painter
- 928
- 01:22:00,506 --> 01:22:02,242
- for people
- who aren't born yet.
- 929
- 01:22:05,778 --> 01:22:07,577
- Possibly.
- 930
- 01:22:07,579 --> 01:22:09,513
- It is said,
- "Life is for sowing.
- 931
- 01:22:09,515 --> 01:22:11,251
- "The harvest
- is not here."
- 932
- 01:22:15,354 --> 01:22:18,258
- I paint with my qualities
- and faults.
- 933
- 01:22:27,533 --> 01:22:29,436
- So, you think
- God could've been mistaken?
- 934
- 01:22:33,238 --> 01:22:38,477
- I think of myself as an exile,
- a pilgrim on this earth.
- 935
- 01:22:40,145 --> 01:22:42,912
- Jesus said, "Turn your
- heart away from things visible
- 936
- 01:22:42,914 --> 01:22:46,351
- "and turn yourself
- to things invisible."
- 937
- 01:22:48,720 --> 01:22:51,687
- - Indeed. But...
- - And Jesus also
- 938
- 01:22:51,689 --> 01:22:54,827
- was totally unknown
- when he was alive.
- 939
- 01:22:57,829 --> 01:22:58,896
- How do you know that?
- 940
- 01:22:58,898 --> 01:23:00,496
- My father was a pastor.
- 941
- 01:23:00,498 --> 01:23:02,434
- I've been around religion
- all my life.
- 942
- 01:23:04,435 --> 01:23:06,269
- Really? A pastor?
- 943
- 01:23:06,271 --> 01:23:10,376
- Yes, and before I realized
- I was a painter,
- 944
- 01:23:11,409 --> 01:23:14,911
- I tried myself
- to be a man of God.
- 945
- 01:23:14,913 --> 01:23:16,849
- So, I learned quite a bit
- about the topic.
- 946
- 01:23:18,449 --> 01:23:19,816
- So you know the gospels?
- 947
- 01:23:19,818 --> 01:23:21,751
- Not only the gospels,
- 948
- 01:23:21,753 --> 01:23:25,254
- I can tell you that Jesus
- wasn't discovered
- 949
- 01:23:25,256 --> 01:23:28,291
- until 30 or 40 years
- after he died.
- 950
- 01:23:28,293 --> 01:23:31,260
- When he was alive,
- nobody talked about him.
- 951
- 01:23:31,262 --> 01:23:33,229
- There's not even a letter
- 952
- 01:23:33,231 --> 01:23:36,633
- from a Roman centurion
- to his wife in Rome
- 953
- 01:23:36,635 --> 01:23:39,736
- saying that a man named Jeshua
- 954
- 01:23:39,738 --> 01:23:42,472
- was crucified in Jerusalem
- with some other criminals.
- 955
- 01:23:42,474 --> 01:23:44,177
- Not a word, nothing.
- 956
- 01:23:52,751 --> 01:23:54,985
- You know,
- this is my job to decide
- 957
- 01:23:54,987 --> 01:23:56,788
- if you're well enough
- to leave this place.
- 958
- 01:24:05,663 --> 01:24:08,400
- This reminds me of Jesus
- on the terrace.
- 959
- 01:24:09,801 --> 01:24:11,468
- Which terrace?
- 960
- 01:24:11,470 --> 01:24:13,503
- Speaking to Pilate,
- 961
- 01:24:13,505 --> 01:24:17,007
- who definitively, if you
- believe what was written,
- 962
- 01:24:17,009 --> 01:24:19,543
- didn't want to crucify him.
- 963
- 01:24:19,545 --> 01:24:21,245
- It was the people.
- 964
- 01:24:21,247 --> 01:24:23,347
- Yes. We could have
- a real discussion
- 965
- 01:24:23,349 --> 01:24:25,781
- about this theory
- some other time.
- 966
- 01:24:25,783 --> 01:24:28,418
- Pilate didn't want
- to crucify Jesus,
- 967
- 01:24:28,420 --> 01:24:32,524
- but everything Christ said
- incriminated him, so...
- 968
- 01:24:35,894 --> 01:24:36,930
- I, too,
- 969
- 01:24:39,030 --> 01:24:42,501
- have to be careful
- with what I say to you.
- 970
- 01:24:46,271 --> 01:24:47,539
- I can understand that.
- 971
- 01:24:51,676 --> 01:24:53,809
- Listen,
- 972
- 01:24:53,811 --> 01:24:55,448
- come see me again
- if you feel like.
- 973
- 01:24:56,649 --> 01:24:58,551
- And share some other ideas
- with me.
- 974
- 01:25:01,552 --> 01:25:04,356
- In the meantime, Dr. Rey
- is here waiting for you.
- 975
- 01:25:04,989 --> 01:25:05,992
- He came to take you home.
- 976
- 01:25:06,759 --> 01:25:07,827
- I'm free to go?
- 977
- 01:25:11,896 --> 01:25:13,565
- I think we've done all we
- can for you here.
- 978
- 01:25:19,037 --> 01:25:20,405
- I hope I'm ready.
- 979
- 01:25:22,608 --> 01:25:23,842
- I hope so, too.
- 980
- 01:25:56,375 --> 01:25:58,741
- VINCENT:
- Please return these things
- 981
- 01:25:58,743 --> 01:26:00,712
- to Madame and Monsieur Ginoux.
- 982
- 01:26:01,579 --> 01:26:03,379
- They've been real friends.
- 983
- 01:26:03,381 --> 01:26:04,315
- DR. REY: Sure, I will.
- 984
- 01:26:04,317 --> 01:26:06,452
- And give them that book.
- Tell them thank you.
- 986
- 01:26:44,021 --> 01:26:45,625
- - Hello.
- - DR. REY: Bonjour.
- 987
- 01:26:48,560 --> 01:26:49,625
- This is very important.
- 988
- 01:26:49,627 --> 01:26:51,727
- Make sure
- Madame Ginoux receives it.
- 989
- 01:26:51,729 --> 01:26:53,763
- It is from the painter
- Vincent van Gogh.
- 990
- 01:26:53,765 --> 01:26:54,933
- He apologizes for the delay.
- 991
- 01:27:06,511 --> 01:27:08,778
- A bundle of towels,
- 992
- 01:27:08,780 --> 01:27:12,885
- a ledger,
- and two empty olive boxes.
- 993
- 01:28:24,489 --> 01:28:25,789
- VINCENT:
- My work's all here.
- 994
- 01:28:25,791 --> 01:28:27,624
- You didn't sell anything.
- 995
- 01:28:27,626 --> 01:28:29,492
- Not yet, but Aurier's
- review
- 996
- 01:28:29,494 --> 01:28:31,126
- was excellent,
- really wonderful.
- 997
- 01:28:31,128 --> 01:28:32,629
- VINCENT:
- That review was absurd.
- 998
- 01:28:32,631 --> 01:28:34,865
- I don't deserve
- anything that man said.
- 999
- 01:28:34,867 --> 01:28:37,099
- - Far from it.
- - Yes, you do.
- 1000
- 01:28:37,101 --> 01:28:38,703
- THEO: The review will help.
- 1001
- 01:28:42,106 --> 01:28:43,475
- VINCENT: I think...
- 1002
- 01:28:45,243 --> 01:28:48,014
- I'm beyond caring
- 1003
- 01:28:48,881 --> 01:28:50,716
- what anyone thinks, but...
- 1004
- 01:28:52,518 --> 01:28:54,153
- I care what you think, Theo.
- 1005
- 01:28:55,654 --> 01:28:57,223
- Tell me,
- I want to know the truth.
- 1006
- 01:28:58,189 --> 01:28:59,889
- Am I a good painter?
- 1007
- 01:28:59,891 --> 01:29:01,625
- THEO: You're not a good painter,
- 1008
- 01:29:01,627 --> 01:29:02,959
- Vincent.
- You're a great painter.
- 1009
- 01:29:02,961 --> 01:29:03,960
- VINCENT: Are you sure?
- 1010
- 01:29:03,962 --> 01:29:06,062
- Of course, I'm sure.
- Why would I lie to you?
- 1011
- 01:29:06,064 --> 01:29:09,266
- I mean, you're my brother.
- You're my brother.
- 1012
- 01:29:09,268 --> 01:29:11,170
- Just to please me.
- 1013
- 01:29:12,938 --> 01:29:14,670
- THEO: I wouldn't do that.
- 1014
- 01:29:14,672 --> 01:29:16,108
- JO: No,
- Theo would never do that.
- 1015
- 01:29:17,775 --> 01:29:20,843
- VINCENT: People say that
- 1016
- 01:29:20,845 --> 01:29:23,146
- I don't know how to draw,
- how to paint.
- 1017
- 01:29:23,148 --> 01:29:28,751
- They say my paintings
- are clumsy, ugly.
- 1018
- 01:29:28,753 --> 01:29:31,787
- I used to care
- what people thought.
- 1019
- 01:29:31,789 --> 01:29:33,857
- But not anymore.
- 1020
- 01:29:33,859 --> 01:29:36,226
- I have no choice.
- 1021
- 01:29:36,228 --> 01:29:39,963
- If I couldn't paint,
- I would murder someone.
- 1022
- 01:29:39,965 --> 01:29:42,132
- THEO: That's why I send you
- money for your paintings
- 1023
- 01:29:42,134 --> 01:29:44,701
- because I really believe
- you are a great painter.
- 1024
- 01:29:44,703 --> 01:29:46,236
- And I'm a businessman.
- 1025
- 01:29:46,238 --> 01:29:47,937
- I'm a business man
- after all.
- 1026
- 01:29:47,939 --> 01:29:50,839
- So, you paint,
- and leave the rest to us.
- 1027
- 01:29:50,841 --> 01:29:53,209
- You paint
- and let us do the rest.
- 1028
- 01:29:53,211 --> 01:29:55,579
- VINCENT:
- Gauguin sent me this letter.
- 1029
- 01:29:55,581 --> 01:29:57,213
- - Yes, I knew he wrote to you.
- - Did you see him?
- 1030
- 01:29:57,215 --> 01:29:58,113
- THEO: No.
- 1031
- 01:29:58,115 --> 01:29:59,915
- - Gauguin...
- - He hasn't asked for me?
- 1032
- 01:29:59,917 --> 01:30:01,017
- ...sent me this letter.
- 1033
- 01:30:01,019 --> 01:30:02,085
- Is he here?
- 1034
- 01:30:02,087 --> 01:30:03,753
- I really don't know.
- Yes, I knew he wrote to you.
- 1035
- 01:30:03,755 --> 01:30:06,656
- JO: What about Aurier
- or Bernard?
- 1036
- 01:30:06,658 --> 01:30:08,961
- Do you want to see them?
- I know they're in town.
- 1037
- 01:30:10,662 --> 01:30:12,227
- VINCENT: He hasn't asked
- for me? Is he here?
- 1038
- 01:30:12,229 --> 01:30:13,362
- I...
- 1039
- 01:30:13,364 --> 01:30:14,697
- Anywhere. Out of Paris.
- 1040
- 01:30:14,699 --> 01:30:15,633
- I want to go somewhere.
- 1041
- 01:30:15,635 --> 01:30:18,000
- I can't stand it here.
- It's not my place.
- 1042
- 01:30:18,002 --> 01:30:20,773
- I find everything
- too complicated.
- 1043
- 01:30:21,273 --> 01:30:22,339
- I can't see anybody.
- 1044
- 01:30:22,341 --> 01:30:24,074
- I can't stand it here.
- It's not my place.
- 1045
- 01:30:24,076 --> 01:30:26,112
- It's worse
- since Aurier's article.
- 1046
- 01:30:27,679 --> 01:30:29,678
- Anywhere. Out of Paris.
- I can't stand it here.
- 1047
- 01:30:29,680 --> 01:30:31,113
- A little village.
- 1048
- 01:30:31,115 --> 01:30:34,116
- There's a lovely little inn
- in Auvers-sur-Oise.
- 1049
- 01:30:34,118 --> 01:30:37,754
- Pissarro knows a doctor there
- who knows your work, loves art
- 1050
- 01:30:37,756 --> 01:30:41,891
- and maybe he can help you
- without getting in the way.
- 1051
- 01:30:41,893 --> 01:30:42,992
- JO: And we could come
- and see you.
- 1052
- 01:30:42,994 --> 01:30:43,996
- VINCENT:
- I'll go there tomorrow?
- 1053
- 01:30:44,762 --> 01:30:46,696
- Let me look into it.
- 1054
- 01:30:46,698 --> 01:30:50,000
- - THEO: Pissarro...
- - I need to go, Theo.
- 1055
- 01:30:50,002 --> 01:30:53,039
- - I need to go.
- - I'll take care of it.
- 1057
- 01:31:04,949 --> 01:31:06,116
- May I talk?
- 1058
- 01:31:06,118 --> 01:31:07,920
- VINCENT: Yes, but don't
- move too much.
- 1059
- 01:31:13,425 --> 01:31:14,659
- Why do you paint?
- 1060
- 01:31:18,195 --> 01:31:19,198
- I paint,
- 1061
- 01:31:24,069 --> 01:31:26,372
- as a matter of fact,
- to stop thinking.
- 1062
- 01:31:28,840 --> 01:31:31,344
- A sort of meditation.
- 1063
- 01:31:33,377 --> 01:31:36,081
- When I paint, I stop thinking.
- 1064
- 01:31:36,782 --> 01:31:38,050
- About what?
- 1065
- 01:31:40,385 --> 01:31:41,753
- I stop thinking,
- 1066
- 01:31:43,055 --> 01:31:44,090
- and I feel
- 1067
- 01:31:45,323 --> 01:31:47,389
- that I'm a part of
- 1068
- 01:31:47,391 --> 01:31:51,130
- everything outside
- and inside of me.
- 1069
- 01:31:59,304 --> 01:32:00,338
- I wanted
- 1070
- 01:32:01,707 --> 01:32:03,709
- so much to share what I see.
- 1071
- 01:32:05,409 --> 01:32:06,645
- An artist...
- 1072
- 01:32:09,780 --> 01:32:10,815
- DR. GACHET: Yes?
- 1073
- 01:32:13,217 --> 01:32:15,988
- I thought an artist
- 1074
- 01:32:18,055 --> 01:32:20,022
- had to teach
- how to look at the world.
- 1075
- 01:32:20,024 --> 01:32:21,793
- But I don't
- think that anymore.
- 1076
- 01:32:23,862 --> 01:32:26,931
- Now I just think about
- my relationship to eternity.
- 1077
- 01:32:29,000 --> 01:32:31,002
- What do you call eternity?
- 1078
- 01:32:32,369 --> 01:32:33,672
- VINCENT: Time to come.
- 1079
- 01:32:35,106 --> 01:32:36,242
- DR. GACHET: Hmm.
- 1080
- 01:32:37,908 --> 01:32:39,442
- Maybe what you are
- saying is that
- 1081
- 01:32:39,444 --> 01:32:42,077
- your gift to the world
- is painting.
- 1083
- 01:32:43,347 --> 01:32:45,818
- If not,
- 1084
- 01:32:46,484 --> 01:32:47,819
- what good is an artist?
- 1085
- 01:32:49,054 --> 01:32:50,456
- You're happy
- when you're painting?
- 1086
- 01:32:51,489 --> 01:32:53,156
- Most of the time,
- 1087
- 01:32:53,158 --> 01:32:54,360
- except when I fail.
- 1088
- 01:32:56,293 --> 01:32:58,264
- You look sad sometimes.
- 1089
- 01:33:00,798 --> 01:33:03,933
- There's a lot of
- destruction and failure
- 1090
- 01:33:03,935 --> 01:33:06,472
- at the door
- of a successful picture.
- 1091
- 01:33:14,880 --> 01:33:17,446
- I find joy in sorrow.
- 1092
- 01:33:17,448 --> 01:33:19,350
- And sorrow is greater
- than laughter.
- 1093
- 01:33:20,085 --> 01:33:21,186
- You know,
- 1094
- 01:33:22,921 --> 01:33:26,826
- an angel is not far
- from those who are sad,
- 1095
- 01:33:27,926 --> 01:33:30,763
- and illness
- can sometimes heal us.
- 1096
- 01:33:36,301 --> 01:33:37,403
- It's the normal state
- 1097
- 01:33:39,371 --> 01:33:40,840
- that gives birth to painting.
- 1098
- 01:33:43,207 --> 01:33:44,175
- You feel that way?
- 1099
- 01:33:46,211 --> 01:33:50,079
- Sometimes I hate the idea
- of regaining my health.
- 1100
- 01:33:50,081 --> 01:33:53,016
- In that case,
- you don't need a doctor.
- 1101
- 01:33:53,018 --> 01:33:54,183
- Stop laughing.
- 1102
- 01:33:54,185 --> 01:33:56,152
- Stop smiling.
- 1103
- 01:33:56,154 --> 01:33:57,387
- - Please.
- - Excuse me.
- 1104
- 01:33:57,389 --> 01:33:59,091
- Go back to your pose.
- 1105
- 01:34:02,027 --> 01:34:03,326
- Excuse me.
- 1106
- 01:34:03,328 --> 01:34:04,363
- It's all right.
- 1108
- 01:34:13,904 --> 01:34:15,840
- Sometimes they say I'm mad,
- 1109
- 01:34:18,042 --> 01:34:20,410
- but a grain of madness
- is the best of art.
- 1110
- 01:34:20,412 --> 01:34:21,981
- You're not a mad man.
- 1111
- 01:34:30,055 --> 01:34:31,990
- It's good to have a doctor
- as a friend.
- 1112
- 01:34:36,627 --> 01:34:38,831
- VINCENT:
- I feel a pain in my stomach.
- 1113
- 01:34:44,869 --> 01:34:46,838
- He was dressed
- like Buffalo Bill.
- 1114
- 01:34:50,375 --> 01:34:51,409
- Hey, Vincent!
- 1117
- 01:35:06,658 --> 01:35:08,394
- VINCENT:
- One of them was nicer.
- 1119
- 01:35:19,604 --> 01:35:22,474
- YOUNG MAN: Please!
- Don't tell our parents.
- 1122
- 01:37:04,475 --> 01:37:05,510
- DR. GACHET: What happened?
- 1123
- 01:37:06,444 --> 01:37:07,479
- What did you do?
- 1125
- 01:37:12,350 --> 01:37:14,453
- You have a bullet hole
- in your stomach.
- 1126
- 01:37:16,520 --> 01:37:17,555
- VINCENT: I don't know.
- 1127
- 01:37:20,425 --> 01:37:21,659
