loving-vincent-shop-1398331843If you do nothing else today you HAVE to watch this film trailer.   I’ve been seeing a short video on Facebook the last few days promoting a new film about Vincent Van Gogh.  It  is and animated film about his life being made entirely using paintings in his swirling-choppy style and based on his letters.  It is AMAZING!
