The author, the director of the film "At Eternity's Gate" based on Dutch painter Vincent Van Gogh's last days. He dispels some apparently long-held, but inaccurate, assumptions perpetuated through history. He dispels the belief that Van Gogh was crazy, that he died a failure as he had failed to earn money form his paintings, and that French artist Paul Gauguin was his enemy. He affirms that Van Gogh was apparently not a social person.
