Vincent and Theo / Netherlands/UK/France / 1990

Tim Roth’s total immersion in his role as the mad, paint-eating Van Gogh is impressive here, as is Paul Rhys’s twitchy, all-nerves Theo Van Gogh, but Altman’s film still can’t completely escape the cliches of the artist biopic where paintings illustrate biographical scenes and vice versa. In the end it all starts to drag as we approach the inevitable and too-well-known end.
