Loving Vincent (2017)


IMDb plot summary: In a story depicted in oil painted animation, a young man comes to the last hometown of painter Vincent van Gogh to deliver the troubled artist's final letter and ends up investigating his final days there.
Directed by Dorota Kobiela and Hugh Welchman. Starring Douglas Booth, Saoirse Ronan, Helen McCrory, and Jerome Flynn.

The hand-painted frames of this movie are definitely the best thing about it. The rest of it is fine but not exciting, an episodic little mystery introducing several characters who vary in how interesting they are.

3 stars.
