At Eternity's Gate - Reviews

Julian Schnabel brings an artist’s sensibility to the storytelling; Willem Dafoe (...) is all angles and anguish as the painter.

Not enough can be said about Willem Dafoe’s amazing performance as van Gogh. It is some of the best work of his career.

...Schnabel’s film is visually vibrant, sensitive and courageous, revealing how the artist’s work was as much fuelled by his torments as hindered by them.

At Eternity's Gate joins a long list of already existing movies about Van Gogh, and it's welcome among them.

Watching the artist at work and hearing nothing but his rapid brushstrokes as the wind howls in the background is meditative, even mesmeric; “At Eternity’s Gate” is as attuned to the natural world as it is to its subject’s process.

Ett vackert porträtt om delar av Vincent van Goghs liv.

...gör poetisk verklighet av van Goghs hårda liv.

Bildpoesi försöker fånga van Gogh.

En slags biopic, der vil meget mere end at give os de historiske kendsgerninger...

Specielt samspillet med Oscar Isaac som den bryske malerkollega, ven og mentor Paul Gauguin slår gnister, når de diskuterer malerkunstens praksis.

På det visuella planet är dock filmen superb hela vägen.

Filmfotot speglar van Goghs konst och resultatet är en njutningsfull visuell upplevelse!

...den amerikanske film- og billedkunstner Julian Schnabel har skabt en poetisk og billedskøn film om en sand kunstner i de sidste år af hans liv.
