Vincent by Tim Burton is narrated in 3rd person omniscient. 3rd person omniscient tells us what the character is doing and what the character is thinking about. The poem shows us what Vincent's thinking about, such as the monsters, dipping his aunt in wax, and doing an experiment on his dog. Another effect of 3rd person omniscient is that the narrator is not in the story but knows all the characters and events.
Changing the POV from 3rd person omniscient to 1st person changes the whole story because Vincent is now telling us the story. 1st person POV limits us from imagining the story but it gets more personal. It helps the readers understand Vincent's emotions and thoughts.
In my opinion, I prefer the poem in 3rd person omniscient because it made more sense. 3rd person omniscient helped me visualize, understand, and like the story better than how 1st person did.
