desire and passion

It took me a long time to remember to watch this movie.
Van Gogh's passionate and combative life, starring Kirk Douglas, has a flock of crows symbolically taking a break in his last painting of a wheat field.
Speaking of this film, I can't help but think of all kinds of memories and nostalgia for the original work.
For Van Gogh in the film, who did not understand life and sought the truth everywhere, every section of his life was full of hasty and twists and turns.

There is no doubt that his artistic achievements are as uplifting and sympathetic as his life story. Even the latter is greater than the former. I also never thought he was just an Impressionist painter.

The tortuous life path of suffering and suffering makes people feel more powerful and eager for life and freedom. This is the new meaning he gave to life and life. For the most part, he resembled Christ in the struggles and struggles of life.

There is no preaching or persuasion in it, just to pursue and insist on his own artistic path, he gave everything a person can give. But in the end, he didn't get the consolation he wanted.

Perhaps, what some of us need in our lives and lives is this extraordinary love and yearning for life.
The joy and hope of sharing one's spiritual fruits with others are recognized and intertwined, and contradictions and calmness are entangled and fought all the time. However, it has always maintained its own innocence and spirit.

I don't even understand that his paintings will sell so well in the future. It is not so much a kind of compensation, it is a kind of irony for those who collect it.

Lust for Life quotes

  • Vincent Van Gogh: I painted them for you.

    Paul Gauguin: That's very friendly of you, Vincent. That's very friendly.

  • Vincent Van Gogh: You'll see for yourself. In the morning, you open the window, see, there's the green of the gardens. Wait till you see the yellow fields at noon under the full sun. And the light, you wouldn't believe it; but, all the time, these yellows are really here. Everywhere you look, there's something to paint.
