★★★★★
‘The film does an admirable job in getting across the exhibition’s main point: that Van Gogh was far from the frenzied wildman of popular repute, but rather a complex, thoughtful figure who pored over every detail of his work.’ — Andrew Pulver, The Guardian
★★★★★
‘David Bickerstaff shows how Van Gogh broke away and found a voice that was distinctly his own, an array of techniques that left his former peers in the dust.’ — Jennie Kermode, Eye for Film
