Paul Gauguin: The Savage Dream Movie Review 1988

This documentary searches out the savage ideal which Gauguin sought in Tahiti and the Marquesas in the last years of his life. Gauguin's words, spoken by Donald Sutherland, play against an overview of his paintings, as well as location shots of the South Seas.
