Van Gogh's original intention was very simple: to get a job, hoping that he could inherit the mantle of his father and spread the gospel!

When he came to a remote coal mine, came into contact with the marginalized people and experienced civil suffering, his identity changed from a pastor to a volunteer!

The role of a volunteer is very meager and limited! The church sent people to inspect his work, found him in rags, and accused him of damaging the image and status of the church! He finally couldn't bear to yell at them: hypocrite! hypocrite!

He is always alone, and this terrible loneliness is spiritual! He has questioned the noble church!

In the end, he chose to pick up the brush again and put everything on nature and labor. He wanted to do more practical work to show God's mercy! He also needs his own value and love in painting. . . But he is still suffering and lonely? !

A song called Vincent (Vincent) can be regarded as a classic in American folk music. Its singer is the famous folk singer Don Mclean. He dedicated this touching song to the great artist, Vincent van Gogh. He moved the whole world to love life while touching him. , People with hope... Once, in front of the Van Gogh Memorial Museum in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, people could always hear this song. She played it over and over again, and it will always be touching and memorable.


I was very touched by Van Gogh's action of cutting his ears. Some people felt "sympathetic to each other". Some people are very weak in emotional control, and lack of communication is also a form of self-abuse! Van Gogh had too few friends, and once the only Gauguin left him, it would no longer be surprising for such a bizarre and unusual act of cutting his ears!

So the most heartbreaking thing in the world is betrayal, betrayal by friends, abandonment by relatives, and psychological suffering. . . And there is no hope. . . Totally desperate!

    Favorite western painter. Naive from beginning to end, just wanting to be a person with love, but finally became the greatest genius and lunatic in the history of painting. The original biography is much better, but the film made more than 50 years ago is very good, and I give it four stars.
