MODI, which is how Amedeo Modigliani was known to his friends, is a seventy-two-hour whirlind in the life of the painter and sculptor in war-torn Paris in 1916 among fellow artists Maurice Utrillo and Chaïm Soutine and writer and critic Betrice Hastings, his muse.
Johnny Depp’s second film as a director is, rather than a biopic, a vibrant exploration of what could have been the thoughts, struggles, and convictions of an artist whose work was scorned by many of his contemporaries.
It delves lucidly into his unwavering resolve to stay true to his vision, refusing to conform to societal expectations.
