Lust for Life
DirectorVincente Minnelli
“He had a lust for life. Sometimes he was brutal, sometimes delicate – always he lived with insatiable passion!”
An intense and imaginative artist, revered Dutch painter Vincent van Gogh possesses undeniable talent, but he is plagued by mental problems and frustrations with failure. Supported by his brother, Theo, the tormented Van Gogh eventually leaves Holland for France, where he meets volatile fellow painter Paul Gauguin and struggles to find greater inspiration.
