Review of Loving Vincent (2017) by Ittiaces — 10 Oct 2017
This movie is a stunning piece of filmmaking. Positively mindblowing in its conception. Every frame was hand painted beautifully by very skilful artists over a period of two years. I believe the entire film took about seven years in all to complete.
The resulting animation looks like a moving work of art. The oil paints seem to glide effortlessly over the subject matter creating scene after scene. It truly is a feast for the eyes. The story elaborates on the events leading up to and after Van Gogh's untimely death.
His demise is still shrouded in a great deal of mystery. Some say he killed himself while others are adamant that he was murdered but chose to protect the killer's identity in his dying moments. It's surprisingly engaging as a detective story and really adds to the whole experience.
Wonderful work by everyone involved in creating this from the artists to the cast to the producers. Astounding, original and highly recommended viewing.
