Loving Vincent

Special Return Engagement

The world’s first fully oil painted feature film brings the artwork of Vincent Van Gogh to life in an exploration of the complicated life and controversial death of one of history’s most celebrated artists.

On July 27, 1890 a gaunt figure stumbled down a drowsy high street at twilight in the small French country town of Auvers.

The man was carrying nothing; his hands clasped to a fresh bullet wound leaking blood from his belly.

This was Vincent van Gogh, then a little known artist; now the most famous artist in the world.

His tragic death has long been known – what has remained a mystery is how and why he came to be shot.

"An engrossing exploration of the artist's final days rendered in his signature painting style."

Serena Donadoni, Village Voice

"You will marvel at the art in this labor-intensive labor-of-love."

Bob Mondello, NPR

"Visually, it's spectacular. Conceptually, it's jaw-dropping to simply considering the effort that went into this."

Stephanie Merry, Washington Post
