Story
After leaving the asylum, Vincent van Gogh settles in Auvers-sur-Oise under the care of Dr. Gachet and takes residence at a humble inn. In his final days, fewer than 70 before his death by self-inflicted gunshot wound, Vincent continues to paint landscapes and portraits amidst his deteriorating mental health. He becomes involved with several women: Marguerite, Dr. Gachet's daughter; Cathy, a Parisian prostitute; Johanna, Theo's wife; and the inn's maid. Vincent's brother Theo visits him along with Johanna and their baby. Despite his charm and playfulness, Vincent struggles with his mental state, quarrels with Theo in Paris, disparages his own art, dances at a brothel, and has warm yet cold interactions with Marguerite before his eventual suicide.
Summary
Directed by Maurice Pialat, 'Van Gogh' (1991) is a biographical drama focusing on Vincent van Gogh's final days in Auvers-sur-Oise. The film explores the tumultuous emotional life of the renowned artist, his relationships with women, and his tumultuous relationship with his brother Theo, who financially supported him throughout his life. While sources differ slightly regarding the extent of Vincent's relationships—one source mentions only Marguerite while another includes Cathy and Johanna—the film is united in its portrayal of Van Gogh's declining mental health and ultimate tragic end.
