Linus Roache stars as troubled painter Vincent van Gogh in this drama from the BBC’s Omnibus series. Struggling to make ends meet first as an art dealer, then as a missionary in a coal mine, van Gogh was tormented by elusive love and madness. After notoriously cutting off his ear and spending a year in an asylum, we see the artists struggles and passions throughout his life.
