Actors
Vincent van Gogh: Willem Dafoe
Priest: Mads Mikkelsen
Paul Gauguin: Oscar Isaac
Today we watched the trailer for At Eternity's Gate. It's a movie about the Dutch painter, Vincent van Gogh. He suffered from depression and he spent some time in a mental hospital. He cut off his own ear when his friend Paul Gauguin left him in the south of France to go elsewhere. I think the acting in the movie was good. Willem Defoe is convincing as Van Gogh, as is Oscar Isaac as Gauguin. Mads Mikkelsen has a very small role as a priest, but he is good, too. The movie is quite slow-moving but very atmospheric.
