Montparnasse 19 stands as an evocative testament to the eternal tug-of-war between art and life. Like Ernest Hemingway's A Moveable Feast and Charles Aznavour's La Bohème, it captures the essence of fleeting moments, of laughter in the face of adversity, and the melancholy that accompanies the passage of time.
The film chronicles the last days of the alcoholic, tubercular artist Amedeo Modigliani in Montparnasse, Paris. It charts his relationships with three women: a masochistic British journalist, a kindly bistro owner, and a young innocent who models for some of his most famous paintings.
