While sketching one day, 13 year old Jo encounters a mysterious art dealer who buys a few of her drawings and commissions her to do some more. Some time thereafter she reads a news story about a million dollar sale of some drawings of a young Vincent Van Gogh. She enlists the aid of some friends and heads to Amsterdam in search of the mystery man. Or, should she go to 19th century Arles in search of Vincent himself? Written by

All the Van Gogh reproductions used in the movie were painted by director Michael Rubbo himself. See more »
Quotes
Jo:
Oh. The Blue Cart. It's wonderful! I've always loved that one.
Vincent Van Gogh:
You've always loved that one? That's impossible. I just finished it.
Jo:
I've seen it before.
Vincent Van Gogh:
I can't believe you.
Jo:
It's true.
Vincent Van Gogh:
You know my paintings, you know my name. How is it possible?

Maybe I shouldn't tell you. It might disturb history.

Oh, come on. Don't worry about history.

Gosh, I love this movie. Perhaps I'm biased because my sister and I have been watching it for years, so there's some sentimental value, but it also led to an eventual fascination with and interest in Vincent Van Gogh and more art besides. It even taught me some basic French (I have the English version of the movie).
