Julian Schnabel’s luminous new film takes a fresh look at the last days of Vincent van Gogh, and in the process revives our sense of the artist as a living, feeling human being. The pulsing heart of At Eternity’s Gate is Willem Dafoe’s shattering performance: his Vincent is at once lucid, mad, brilliant, helpless, defeated, and, finally, triumphant. With Oscar Isaac as Gauguin, Rupert Friend as Theo, Mathieu Amalric as Dr. Gachet, Emmanuelle Seigner as Madame Ginoux, and Mads Mikkelsen as The Priest.

“A bursting sunflower of a movie. Channels the light, the evanescent glow of van Gogh’s painting and being, like lightening in a bottle.” – Variety
“An exquisite portrayal of van Gogh at work.” – The New York Times
