(2018, dir. Julian Schnabel, w/ Willem Dafoe, Rupert Friend, Oscar Isaac, Mads Mikkelsen) A look at the life of painter Vincent van Gogh during the time he lived in Arles and Auvers-sur-Oise, France. (IMDB) (2014, dir. Mike Leigh, w/ Timothy Spall, Paul Jesson, Dorothy Atkinson, Marion Bailey) Mr. Turner will start at approximately 9:47pm, and finish at approximately 12:23am. Mr. Turner explores the last quarter century of the great if eccentric British painter J.M.W. Turner (1775-1851). Profoundly affected by the death of his father, loved by a housekeeper he takes for granted and occasionally exploits sexually, he forms a close relationship with a seaside landlady with whom he eventually lives incognito in Chelsea, where he dies. Throughout this, he travels, paints, stays with the country aristocracy, visits brothels, is a popular if anarchic member of the Royal Academy of Arts, has himself strapped to the mast of a ship so that he can paint a snowstorm, and is both celebrated and reviled by the public and by royalty.
