The Moderns Ratings & Reviews
El Nuevo Herald (Miami)
Rene Jordan
A kind of aberrant fascination. [Full review in Spanish]
Film Frenzy
Matt Brunson
Clearly flawed but definitely worthwhile, and it almost serves as a test run for Rudolph's other (and superior) film about intellectuals in the 1920s, 1994's Mrs. Parker and the Vicious Circle.
IONCINEMA.com
Nicholas Bell
A high-minded, sometimes amusing attempt to examine the potent ex-pat community of 1920s Paris.
The New Yorker
Richard Brody
The movie's disparate elements are unified less by the plot than by Rudolph's distinctive, rhapsodic style, with its sinuous long takes and archly elusive performances.
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)
Ken Hanke
A casually absurd, surprisingly playful look into the lives of American expatriates --Gertrude Stein's famous "lost generation" -- in post-World War I Paris.
Classic Film and Television
Michael E. Grost
Fascinating film about painters in 1920's Paris
Spirituality & Practice
Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat
Will appeal to fans of Alan Rudolph's distinctive story-telling abilities.
New York Times
Vincent Canby
A movie that makes an afternoon with Gertrude and Alice more boring than a faculty tea.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
It takes place at that enchanted moment in Paris when the Lost Generation created itself and then proceeded to create, promote, fabricate and publicize modern literature, art, music and attitudes.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
The plot of the film concerns love, heartbreak, money problems, the meaning of art, alcoholism and finding one's identity.
Washington Post
Desson Thomson
Rudolph's weaknesses pale before the film's overriding textures: Toyomichi Kurita's cinematography exquisitely crosses color with sepia and blacks and whites.
Washington Post
Rita Kempley
Everything is ersatz, even the surrealism in Alan Rudolph's 10th movie.
