Movie #1488 ........................."Loving Vincent"

Movie #1488 "Loving Vincent" was an amazing animated film that I really really liked.  It was beautiful.  I only wish I was more familiar with Van Gogh's work (I found the 2 or 3 nods to the famous ones I know he's done, but.....) .I wish I  knew more of his work!   I also wish that it gave even more information on his life ---- when we are done watching the film, we get a lot of info: I just wish there was even more because I found what was here was quite intriguing.  The film is a mixture of real people superimposed on animated figures --- I'm not sure how they did it, but it's a marvel.  You can stream it right now, so please do because I think you will like it, and it's a nomination for best animation --- quite deserving!  I liked it better than "Coco" but I think "Coco" will win this category.  I give this 4 stars out of 5.
