The Moderns (DVD)
Director-screenwriter Alan Rudolph turns his eye on 1926 Paris for this elegant, wry film. Keith Carradine and Linda Fiorentino star as Nick and Rachel, former lovers who reunite amid the artist-packed cafes and salons. He`s a painter hanging out with pals Ernest Hemingway (Kevin J. O`Connor) and gossip Oiseu (Wallace Shawn). She`s an alcoholic trapped in a loveless marriage to bullying businessman and art collector Bertram Stone (John Lone). As he and Rachel yell, drink, and fall back in love, Nick also finds himself in a scheme to forge some classic works by Cezanne, Modigliani, and Matisse, leading to incredible complications when Rachel`s husband buys them.
Freely working with a cast that mixes real and fictitious characters, Rudolph finds a lot to say about art, love, commerce, and the birth of modernity. Lush photography and fine performances, particularly those of Lone, O`Connor, and Genevihve Bujold as Nick`s art dealer, make this a fond and loving artistic tribute to a time that still reverberates today with its unheralded creative impact.R"

The American Film Theatre: Collection Two (DVD)
The American Film Theater series was conceived in the 1970s by producer Ely Landau. Landau`s idea was to blend the two mediums, the stage play and the movie, by filming a number of great plays and them showing them a few times a week at a theater where tickets must be bought in advance, as they would be at a play. The series produced a number of excellent adaptations of classic plays, five of which are included in this set: A DELICATE BALANCE, THE MAN IN THE GLASS BOOTH, IN CELEBRATION, THREE SISTERS, and THE HOMECOMING. See individual titles for details.PG"
