Vincent and Me

The First Fully Painted Animated Feature Film

"Loving Vincent"

&

Me

Last night I was just going through "Book my show". And suddenly my heart get charged by watching the Booking status of "Loving Vincent" movie.  Currently, there is only one cinema hall in Kolkata is showing that movie.

So the movie time was at 9:30 in the morning. and I thought if I will go to sleep I'll never be able to wake up in the morning. So, I decided to stay awake the whole night just to watch this movie.

I am a big fan of Vincent's work. I can remember when I was traveling in Thailand. I just bought an only book for me it was an art collection book by Vincent Van Gogh. What made so much curious about him is the life of that particular man. Although his death also can be described in another book itself, his life ! he started painting at the age of 28. this can be an inspiration for anyone I think. I am 23 but I already feel sometimes that I'm not that young to make any new step but the story was different for him. And that becomes an inspiration.

But the life of Vincent was never happy. At least not the way that we define it.  I believe his soul was never at peace. And be in any way if we can define the soul of the universe then it'll be also not in peace.  I think that was the harmony in between them.

The story of the movie is beautiful.  But what makes it incredible is the dedication of the team who made this. It took more than 6 years to complete the movie and more then 100 painters painted every scene of it.

I am sure you will never experience it before.  But there was something different for me today. I am pretty much sure that, nobody experienced it like the way I did. I was at one of the premium cinema halls today called Insignia from Inox. And it was my first movie in that. But this is not the case, Main interesting thing was I was the only person in the entire hall. I don't know if you have ever been in this situation or not. But yes it was very special for me. The first feeling I got is the fear. I mean yes, there was no one at that time. After that, I started to feel it may be a sign from the universe for me. I don't actually have many words to describe this feeling. the words which are coming to mind maybe not the best.

But yes the last words from the movie "From Loving Vincent". I can still feel that I am actually hearing this.
