Jacques Dutronc is Van Gogh

Jacques Dutronc is Van Gogh

After leaving an asylum, Vincent Van Gogh (Jacques Dutronc, Every Man For Himself) settles in Auvers-sur-Oise, in the home of Doctor Gachet (Gerard Sety), an art lover and patron. Vincent keeps painting amidst the conflicts with his brother Theo and the torments of his failing mental health. He has an affair with Marguerite (Alexandra London), his host’s daughter. However, she soon realizes that he doesn’t love her and that his heart beats only for his art.

This examination of the last 60 days of Van Gogh’s life—Maurice Pialat’s penultimate feature film—earned him a Palme d’Or nomination Cannes Film Festival.
