I was very charmed by Donald Sutherland's performance in this film about Gauguin. He brought the story of the artist to life... making it both engaging and memorable. I recommend this film to anyone who an enthusiast of art, painting, or the post-impressionist movement.

4.0 out of 5 stars Donald Sutherland takes off from A.Quinn in "Lust for Life.", July 27, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Wolf at the Door [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Donald Sutherland takes us to the passion that Anthony Quinn showed us in "Lust for Life." This is an emotionally riveting movie that portrays the artist Paul Gauguin's discipline and emotion in portraying life on canvas. This movie reflects great cinematography, with the brilliance and haughtiness of an original Gauguin painting. Please re-release this video.

4.0 out of 5 stars Intriguing biography written as movie, not documentary!, March 11, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Wolf at the Door [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Donald Sutherland plays an excellent Gaugin. He takes you through his life from deserting his family in Denmark through his time in Paris with all the other artists of his day to his travels in Tahiti. Always kept your attention. Highly recommend movie for it's content and for the history value.
