Milan Music is pleased to release this astonishing film’s score by English genius Clint Mansell: Loving Vincent.

Loving Vincent is the upcoming biographical animated film from newcomer directors Dorota Kobiela and Hugh Welchman. The movie follows Armand Roulin (Douglas Booth), the son of an acquaintance of Vincent Van Gogh, as he attempts to deliver a letter from the painter following van Gogh’s death.

Armand soon finds himself retracing the steps taken by Vincent in his final days in an attempt to unravel the mysterious circumstances surrounding his death. A film unlike any other, Loving Vincent is entirely hand painted – each of the movie’s 65,000 frames is an oil painting on a canvas created using the same techniques as Vincent van Gogh. The film will be released worldwide from early October this year.

In addition to being a wonder for the eyes, Loving Vincent is a treat for the ears. Scoring duties fell to English composer Clint Mansell (Requiem For A Dream, Black Swan), who has crafted a masterpiece. Somber yet driven, Mansell’s compositions are filled the swell of mournful strings pocked with delicate, deliberate notes in countermelodies. A perfect companion to the story of dreadful loss and resigned understanding, Loving Vincent demands to be heard. A beautiful rendition of Starry Starry Night performed by Lianne La Havas that serves as the film’s credit song is also included.
