Actor Christopher Reeve (SUPERMAN) narrates this illuminating study of one of the most famous artists of all time, Vincent Van Gogh. The life of the tortured Dutch painter, who is now the archetype of starving artists, is explored through his letters and paintings. Everything from his beginnings as a child in Holland to his years in Paris, where he lived in a socialist commune and worked with other art legends like Gaugin and Degas are chronicled.
