I always thought that Van Gogh wouldn't speak like that - Dream No. 5

Undoubtedly, compared with the previous dreams, this is the most splendid and beautiful dream. It is definitely not inferior to the story of Tao Yao, and even has a stronger sense of form.
The painter of Van Gogh's painting in the art museum restaurant entered the painting, visited the traces of Van Gogh, found Van Gogh who was painting in a field that had been harvested, the two had a conversation, and then Van Gogh left him, the painter I started the chase, walked through the beautiful scenery that appeared in countless Van Gogh paintings, and finally saw the back of Van Gogh at the end of the road in the fields. The crows flew up, and the painter returned to reality, watching the last painting Van Gogh painted before his death, the rice field. In the sky, crows are flying.
The colors of this part are beautiful and full of non-reality. The world in the painting, whether houses, bridges, or wheels, are all splendid and vivid colors, like a fairy tale kingdom, and the natural beauty of the fields is also intoxicating, such as The golden fields and the blue sky, this beautiful reality makes people believe that Van Gogh lives here, and it is difficult not to paint beautiful paintings. After that, the painter walked through the scenery in the painting, through the colorful, thin or thick oil paint, he walked through the paintings of Van Gogh, and also through the past where Van Gogh lived, following him, until The end of his life trajectory.
It's all good, it's just that I personally think it would have been better if Van Gogh didn't talk to the painter.
When the painter saw the silhouette of Van Gogh standing far away.
There was a little voice inside me saying, "Don't go over there, don't let me see him."
I didn't want to see that actor at all.
I don't want to hear the conversation between them at all.
For me, that far back is enough.

The painter speaks French with the woman by the river, but English with Van Gogh.
I don't understand the historical background, and I don't want to analyze whether it's right or wrong.
I just thought that man was not Van Gogh at all, he was nothing like Van Gogh.
He is so autistic and doesn't know how to communicate with people.
It was impossible for him to express himself to others like that.
Not to mention the fact that he cut off his ears for a joke of a prostitute.
He explained to the artist that he couldn't draw his ears, so he cut them off.

This is simply unreasonable.

It was impossible for Van Gogh to explain all this, there was no way he could speak like that.
What Kurosawa shows is such a van Gogh who looks to the end.
It was the Van Gogh whom he had in mind.

Maybe the real dream is always longing for but unable to get it.
Painters should not see Van Gogh's.
We shouldn't see that Van Gogh who doesn't look like Van Gogh at all.
When that Van Gogh appeared,
many of the atmospheres he had created before and after had disappeared.
Even the last figure who couldn't catch up lost its strength.

Maybe you will say that I am extreme.
If so,
then there is no need to make biopics in the whole world?
I never meant it.
Van Gogh can appear.
But the expectation is that such an appearance in the film is
not as good as not appearing.

    It's good to have a dream of Van Gogh. I like the last dream, the paradise-like 'village'. The funeral is very exciting. It's strange that people who have abandoned a lot of modern civilization still master so many Western musical instruments.

    The festival when the Sun Rain Fox got married was so fascinating that I watched it back and forth several times. This is also the favorite section of the eight dreams. The fox walked slowly in the sun and rain, returning to the capital every time he reached a rhythm point, just like the movie, playing slowly, but wanted to look back frequently.
