Maybe it's the same as the repainting of Van Gogh's painting in the movie (Boldhearted), this is exactly the genius Van Gogh in the eyes of a director. He is trapped in hallucinations, but he has a unique eye; he is not close to humanity, but he is full of gratitude; he is fragile and sensitive, but full of passion; he is poor, but he is rich in heart. He is capricious and will cut his ears for the sake of his friends leaving; he loves nature and suicide is not his style. As the director of "Diving Bell", he can appropriately express Van Gogh's spiritual world and pursuit of art with light, shadow and silent lens. William Dafoe, 63-year-old acting as a 37-year-old painter is not against his harmony (Is this a vegetarian diet?), and he has risen to the top three literary and artistic male gods in my mind.
