Time spent watching films, even crappy ones, is time well-spent.

Loving Vincent (2017)

It's all about the beautiful moving paintings that make up this film. I mean, there's nothing wrong with the story at all, but these works of art masquerading as a film are what make this worth watching. Every single image could be hung in a gallery.

I did come away thinking it's probable that Vincent didn't shoot himself and that, perhaps, it was a conscious decision on his part to allow his injury to end his life. But, again, the story is absolutely secondary.
