Vincent & Theo Page #2

the future of this company.

We know that

you don't like to be here.

It's not I don't like it,

it's just I feel that...

- We don't care what you feel.

You're trying to fire me.

Why don't you get to the point?

Every day more galleries

are open in Montmartre.

It's a different market but...

- We think that any

branch should...

...focus only in painting

And taking into account your...

special interest in that area...

It'd be an experiment.

Are you saying that

I could run my own gallery?

Would you be interested?

I think I should think of it.

I'll think of it.

Good afternoon.

Hello Mauve!

How are you?

I've been painting.

I want you to see my work.

You're never at home when I go.

I won't be again for you.

While you are with that women

I'm not interested in your paintings.

Let's go, Maria.

How is your wife?

Does she know this?

I see you have brought your b*tch.

Are you crazy?

Do you have any idea about the...

- Yes, she is a prostitute.

I knew her pregnant and I love her.

I thought they didn't understand you

because you wanted to be an artist.

Shouldn't we care about

other?

You're vicious, venomous

and you look like a worker.

I'm a worker.

- Yes, I see.

A painter.

What do you know about painting?

You have no idea.

This is revolting.

- Stop, Vincent, you're crazy.

I thought you're the servant.

Stay here.

The baby is going to be born.

- Can you walk?

Their hair is darker

than the Dutchwomen's.

Their eyes more brown

and they smile much more.

Listen carefully,

I'll explain it again.

The reason why

we Dutchmen like...

French girls is...

Don't be impatient.

Theo.

- What?

Are you coming tonight?

- I'm not going out.

You're very boring.

I don't want to go out. And you?

Why does he paint this?

It's revolting.

It's what he sees.

Anyway...

he'll paint in oils soon.

Leave him and peel potatoes.

The baby is crying.

He doesn't need much.

Look what I have.

My brother...

uncle Theo...

has sent me some paints.

Where have you got the money?

I've earned it.

How?

- What do you want me to do?

Cleaning the house?

Peeling potatoes?

That's very funny.

While you play with your paints.

Hurry up, before

start raining.

It didn't work.

You're decent and I'm not.

Many times I don't

know what are you talking about.

Did you see the doctor?

What did he said?

The same as always.

Did he say it is me?

He told me that I should

sleep alone for some months.

Who am I going to sleep with?

The door is closed!

When de door is

closed, don't come in.

Poussin, come here.

Where are you going?

- To Saint Germain...

to see the new blacks.

Everybody talks about them...

Are you coming or not?

- I'm not interested.

I'm going

- Then hurry up.

Are you going?

- I can't sleep with you, so...

I can't stay here.

Don't ask questions.

You wanted to change my life.

Mind your own business.

My life is fine like that.

God!

I hate this place!

You know it's

more complicated than that.

The world of art, what we

sell in galleries...

is something very difficult.

I should stop painting.

I can't do it if

you don't believe in me.

I believe in you.

But I can't force

people to buy...

what they don't want.

I always forget you

are a business man

I'm not the owner of the gallery.

I don't even run it, I work there.

They'd fire me if...

I tried to exhibit

your pictures in their premises.

You're generosity

is killing me.

I'm going to Paris.

- What?

I don't think you're ready.

- When do you think I'll be ready?

Probably never!

Not yet.

I want to make a deal.

Every month,

when you send me the pension,

I'll send you the pictures

I have painted.

This way, when they ask me

if I paint for money...

I could answer, yes.

For God's sake!

And what about me, Vincent?

Come in, Andries.

This is my sister

Jo, Theo Van Gogh.

Hello. It's a pleasure.

- Pleased to meet you.

May I have your coat?

I'm sorry about that mess.

I didn't wait you so soon.

Don't worry.

It's new, isn't it?

I think it's Montmartre.

It's a Sisley.

It's not Sisley, it's Montmartre

- The painter is Sisley.

The place is Montmartre.

Sit down, please.

Do you want something to drink?

- Yes, please.

We're in Paris,

it should be champagne.

But I only have wine.

To Paris.

So Andries...

- Yes, I used to live here...

I've spent many

nights here.

Beautiful pictures.

All them are for sale.

I'm just a dealer,

everything is for sale.

Theo' uncles are

art dealers...

According to them,

you can earn a lot of money.

Yes, but I don't earn too

much. Almost nothing.

You sell but don't paint.

- That's it.

My brother is painter.

This one is his.

It's ver Dutch.

- You've noticed it.

We Dutchmen recognise

each other immediately.

I'm going to see my old

bedroom Excuse me.

Go on, please.

- No, thank you.

Do you like pictures?

- Yes, a lot.

Do you sell many pictures?

- Yes, quite a lot.

No, not really.

Well, yes and no.

I mean that...

I sell many

that I don't like and

I don't sell pictures

that I like very much.

Do you mind repeating it?

I don't think I could.

Is this the first

time you are in Paris?

Yes, it's the first time.

Do you mind if I smoke?

- No, I don't mind.

They're Turkish.

What are you doing here?

Nobody returns after lunch.

Emile Bernard.

What's your name?

- Vincent.

Vincent what?

That's a Mauve.

- I knew his wife.

He's my cousin.

- She's very rich.

This one is a Mauve too.

It's not very interesting.

Be careful.

The one in the middle must be...

It's a Czanne.

This Czanne has to be on the top.

Be careful, Andries.

It' has been him.

- Be more careful.

This one has to be on the top.

Here. Thank you.

What do you think?

- I understand this one.

Are you going to ask her?

- Who am I going to ask?

Bonger.

Joanna Bonger.

What am I going to ask Joanna?

To marry you.

I'm not going to ask her.

I'd like but I can't.

You can't because you have syphilis.

And you are the poorest

man I've ever known.

And why?

Why I have no money?

Because I take all

you earn.

Has dad told you

how much did uncle Cent...

get for Goupils?

Has he ever told you?

He's the owner of half France.

Yes, I should talk to him.

I have all planned.

It's very sensible.

Anyone would recover his

investment in two years.

More than that.

There would be benefits.

In three years there

would be a lot of benefits.

You should go and see him.

I'll talk to him.

When will you come back to Paris?

- I don't have any reason to go.

To visit your brother.

- My brother?

Have you come to Amsterdam

to visit your uncle?

Yes.

And also expected

to meet you.

And you've made it.

And here we are.

Yes, here we are.

It's so frustrating

to work for people...

that are only

interested in the money.

I have my tastes

and I must be my owner.

For many reasons.

Am I one of them?

I'm 30 years old.

My health is a problem

- Don't you have a good doctor?

I have syphilis

- I know.

My brother told me.
