Watch The Moon and Sixpence (1942) Official Trailer
Strange DREAMS - He had ideas he never told her about...He didn't dare!
6.3 / 10 IMDb October 27, 1942 1h 29m
Loosely inspired from Gauguin's life, the story of Charles Strickland, a middle-aged stockbrocker who abandons his middle-classed life, his family, his duties to start painting, what he has always wanted to do. He is from now on a awful human being, wholly devoted to his ideal: beauty.
