C'est de la poésie pour les yeux et pour les oreilles.
C'était émouvant. On suit Armand Roulin qui, en voulant remettre une lettre de Vincent à son frère Théo, se retrouve à enquêter sur la mort de Vincent. Au fil de ses recherches on apprend à connaître la vie de Van Gogh.
Des passages beaux que j'ai recopiés parce que je n'ai rien de mieux à faire (⚠️⚠️spoilers⚠️⚠️)
- I know that he tried hard to prove that he was good for something.
- Yes. He did. That's why I take flowers to his grave. That's all I can do for him now. He would appreciate the delicate beauty of their bloom. Even each blade of their grassy stems. No detail of life was too small or too humble for him. He appreciated it and loved it all.
What do you think the burden of worrying about you is doing to your brother? It's quite likely killing him. That is the price of your truth. The price of your path as an artist. Is it worth it?
–Dr Gachet to Vincent
Maybe it is better for everyone
–Vincent last words to Gachet

–Joseph Roulin
Would you look at it? [the night sky] There's a whole other world up there. Something we get to gaze upon but don't fully understand. Reminds me of him.
–Joseph Roulin
Maybe we can take death to go to a star. And to die peacefully of old age would be to go there on foot.
–Vincent last letter
