The first oil-painted animated feature reached $20 million worldwide at the box office and grabbed a Golden Globe nomination. Will an Oscar nomination follow?
Sometimes, statistics lie. “Loving Vincent” didn’t look good on paper, but for Good Deed Entertainment the animated Vincent Van Gogh biopic was a work of art.

It took seven years and 65000 hand-painted frames to turn a live action feature into a one-of-kind animated film about the last days of Vincent Van Gogh.
All 65,000 frames of this Vincent van Gogh biopic have been hand painted by 125 different artists. How’s that for a major accomplishment?
