The Moderns
Keith stars as Nick Hart, the proverbial starving artist in 1920's Paris who hangs out with the likes of Ernest Hemingway, Alice B. Toklas and Gertrude Stein...the film was directed by Alan Rudolph. (Montreal stood in for Paris.)
It is a beautiful film!
Enter a Mr. and Mrs. Stone, wealthy couple taking Paris by storm. Rachel Stone (played by Linda Fiorentino) and Nick are not strangers to each other, and quickly become intimately reacquainted...
Mr. Stone sends his henchmen to tell Nick to stay away from his "wife." The two men even end up fighting each other over Rachel's honor...
In the meantime, Nick gets an offer to forge some paintings from a woman (played by Geraldine Chaplin) trying to get even with her cheating husband...
Even though she attempts to renege on the deal, Nick figures out a way to turn things to his advantage...and to get back at Mr. Stone!

Nick goes upstairs to see Rachel while an art dealer discusses business with her husband downstairs...
In a final confrontation, Rachel must choose between the two men...
Nick leaves Paris, stops off in New York on his way to Hollywood...and encounters an old acquaintance...
The Moderns is one (we feel!) of the best films in which Keith Carradine has starred...great acting, fantastic-looking star, good writing that seems to capture an era...and, the music doesn't overpower the dialogue, but complements it. Genevieve Bujold and Wallace Shawn also star in this film. John Lone gives an outstanding performance, as well!

This is a wonderful movie. Keith is in 95% of the scenes and he looks amazing. He is so natural in this film. It's a great story and the supporting actors do a fantastic job as well. I wasn't a fan of Alan Rudolph's "Choose Me", but he did a great job with this film. Definitely a must see for any Keith Carradine fan.
