Most people just called her Jo. You see, the movie pronounces it Theo while in my research I found that many other people pronounce it “Tay-O”…but, since the movie uses the Theo pronunciation, that’s what I’ll use for this episode.As you can probably guess, Theo van Gogh was indeed really the brother of Vincent.
You can help keep the show going and get exclusive bonus content at He’d have new emotional and financial priorities with the new family.So, this version suggests that Theo’s new family could’ve been the straw that threw Vincent into the state of mind where he’d cut off his ear.In the end, we don’t really know…and there are more theories out there, but those are just a couple.Speaking of Vincent’s state of mind, unfortunately, the science of the time just didn’t know a lot about mental health concerns during his lifetime, so most of the diagnoses for Vincent van Gogh have been done long after he died.As you can imagine, the truth is a matter of debate since there’s so much we don’t know for sure. The movie talks very briefly about Vincent’s family a little later in the movie, but since we’re on the topic, Theo wasn’t Vincent’s only brother.The movie was correct to mention that the first child born to Vincent’s parents, Theodorus and Anna, was another baby boy they named Vincent.Of course, as the first-born, it’s not like they planned on having two children with the same name. He admits there was an argument between them – Van Gogh accused Gachet of being a coward for not pursuing his dreams, to which Gachet angrily accused Van Gogh of deteriorating Theo's health by overly depending on his brother. Maybe I should call it one of the great cruelties of life on this earth and maybe we should count him among the martyrs who died with a smile on their face.He did not wish to stay alive and his mind was so calm because he had always fought for his convictions, convictions that he had measured against the best and noblest of his predecessors.His love for his father, for the gospel, for the poor and the unhappy, for the great men of literature and painting, is enough proof for that. He saved all sorts of paperwork, including the letters from his beloved brother.On the other hand, Vincent hardly saved any of his. That was, like the movie says, at a psychiatric hospital in Saint-Rémy, France. He apparently cut off his own ear and handed it to this woman.The movie doesn’t give a lot more context than that…so let’s stop the movie’s timeline here, because we’ve got a lot to cover already.Starting with Armand Roulin, he was a very real person. According to this version of the story, Vincent said he was in a wheat field painting when he shot himself with a revolver. But, many sources suggest that Vincent most likely suffered from bipolar disorder. I will have the honour of seeing you and better acquaint you about your patient than one can do by letter.So, yes, the doctor said that Vincent was “perfectly calm”…but he also said that his prognosis “is serious.”Sadly, if things did get better for Vincent…it wasn’t for much longer.As we learned earlier, Theo got engaged in early 1889. To make matters worse, ever since Vincent was young, he was very physically active. Loving Vincent is made entirely of oil paintings – and has just been nominated for an Oscar. Maybe he was shot and simply didn’t want anyone else to be charged.The questions the movie surfaces are exactly the sort of questions that historians and art lovers around the world have tried to answer ever since Vincent’s death in 1890.So, realistically, there’s no way I could hope to magically have the answer in this episode.With that said, though, let’s lay out the things we do know so you can come up with your own conclusion about what might’ve happened in Vincent’s final days.As we learned earlier, Vincent’s mental health was in a near-constant state of deterioration.
Her name is Adeline Ravoux, and she was a real person.She was only 13 years old in July of 1890, but it wasn’t until she was in her 70s that she wrote what is probably the most detailed account of the final moments of Vincent van Gogh’s life.According to her, Vincent left the inn on the morning of July 27th. Every one of the 65,000 frames of the film is an oil-painting hand-painted by 125 professional oil-painters who travelled from all across the world to the Loving Vincent studios in Poland and Greece to be a part of the production. The food on the table? It has taken us 4 years to develop the technique, and it took us over 2 years with a team of over 100 painters working at studios in the Polish cities of Gdansk and Wroclaw, and a studio in Athens to complete the film.The reason we made the film is not because we want to be the first, or that we want to set any records, it is because we believe that you cannot truly tell Vincent’s story without his paintings, so we needed to bring his paintings to life.Someone who has not, and never will have, any position in society, in short the lowest of the low.Well then, even if that was all absolutely true, one day I would like show by my work, what this non-entity has in his heart.It was the abiding passion of her life until she made her first film.
On hearing the news about Vincent he sends his hot-blooded son, Armand Roulin (Douglas Booth), on a mission to deliver the letter by hand to Theo and find out what really happened to Vincent.Armand is a reluctant detective, not much caring for his father’s erratic erstwhile drinking companion. He is directed to Pere Tanguy (John Sessions), the paint seller....that it is not only Vincent that is dead: his beloved brother Theo died shortly after him. A great rest came over him from which he did not come to life again.In the end, we have to turn to the personal letters and the recollections of people like Adeline Ravoux to paint the picture of what happened to Vincent van Gogh.How accurate of a story does that tell? Pere cannot fathom why Vincent would commit suicide when he seemed to be on the brink of stardom.
