Art Appreciation with Jack Brin, film and conversation.
Lust for life is the story of Vincent van Gogh, starring Kirk Douglas as van Gogh and Anthony Quinn as Gauguin. In the film, Douglas bears an excellent likeness to van Gogh. Anthony Quinn later claimed that during filming he felt as though he were 'in communication' with Gauguin. The film, in brilliant color, features many of van Gogh's paintings and the actual locales where they were created. The film runs for 2 hours & 10 minutes.
