O S T<br />

IF THERE’S ONE THING Woody Allen does well,<br />

it’s create a spectacle. Through his anxious, introspective<br />

characters (usually proxies for himself)<br />

and his personal life, he’s had ample opportunity<br />

for that sort of thing. You could argue that it’s<br />

kept the notoriously neurotic fi lmmaker in<br />

business for years. But there may not be any<br />

WHEN A LATE-NIGHT WALK<br />

A MODERN-DAY WRITER IN<br />

THE JAZZ AGE, HE LEARNS<br />

THAT KEEPING TRACK OF THE<br />

LOST GENERATION CAN BE A<br />

BIT OF A CHALLENGE.<br />

BY JOHN SELLERS<br />

intellectual spectacle greater than a meeting of a whole mess of artistic and literary<br />

heroes in one place, at one time. That’s especially true when those heroes were known<br />

for drinking absinthe until they couldn’t see straight, in Paris, close to 90 years ago.<br />

In Allen’s latest, Midnight in Paris, Owen Wilson plays Gil, a successful Hollywood<br />

screenwriter and aspiring novelist who, while visiting France’s capital city with his<br />

fi ancée, Inez (Rachel McAdams), is repeatedly transported by unexplained magic into<br />

Paris in the roaring ’20s. There, Gil gets down with Ernest Hemingway, Pablo Picasso,<br />

Salvador Dalí and other luminaries, who have the combined eff ect of making his own<br />

existence seem intolerably dull.<br />

That so many expat American and European artists became acquainted in 1920s Paris<br />

was due in large part to the social machinations of writer Gertrude Stein (Kathy Baker) of<br />

“rose is a rose is a rose” fame. Essentially the Kevin Bacon of her day, she invited nearly every<br />

notable painter, poet, photographer and writer living in Paris to one of the infamous “salon”<br />

parties at her lavish Le Bank apartment. But without having been to one, you might<br />

fi nd it hard to tell everyone apart. That’s why we made this handy chart, which explains<br />

how all the artists knew each other (we even stuck Woody Allen in there for good measure).<br />

Just think of it as a much-coveted social introduction from Stein. START PLAYING Ú

Stein and her siblings purchased many of<br />

Matisse’s early paintings and urged their<br />

infl uential friends to do the same.<br />

While they were lifelong partners, Toklas made the<br />

mistake of outliving Stein, was cut off from her wealth<br />

by Stein’s executors and died in poverty.<br />

Stein’s art collection had a surfeit<br />

of Picassos, and he was often at<br />

her parties.<br />

In the mid-1920s, Dalí met his hero, Picasso, who<br />

helped inspire the mustachioed one’s signature<br />

surrealist style.<br />

Like many other expats,<br />

Stein sat for one of<br />

Man Ray’s photos.<br />

Dalí and Buñuel<br />

collaborated on<br />

Buñuel’s twisted<br />

1929 fi lm Un Chien<br />

Andalou. You know:<br />

the one with the<br />

eyeball.<br />

Parisian saloon-keeper Ada “Bricktop” Smith,<br />

whom Porter often hired to give dance lessons at<br />

his lavish parties, appeared in Allen’s Zelig.<br />

Picasso and Matisse,<br />

championed early in<br />

their careers by Stein<br />

and her art patron<br />

friends, became<br />

bitter rivals through<br />

the years.<br />

The famously macho novelist once referred<br />

to Baker as the “most sensational woman I<br />

ever saw.”<br />

Hemingway’s dying character in “The Snows<br />

of Kilimanjaro” quotes from Porter’s 1933<br />

song “It’s Bad for Me.”


Hemingway made his then-wife Hadley<br />

sit with Toklas when they visited Stein. He<br />

called Toklas “nice, but scary.”<br />

Zelig begins with a scene in which Allen’s<br />

character and the hard-partying Great<br />

Gatsby author discuss the social classes.<br />

Buñuel briefl y worked as a second-unit assistant<br />

director on Baker’s 1927 black-and-white silent<br />

fi lm trifl e Siren of the Tropics.<br />

Porter introduced the Fitzgeralds to his<br />

friends Gerald and Sara Murphy, who created<br />

a hub of artistic debauchery at their manse.<br />

Hemingway once<br />

called Eliot: “A<br />

damned good poet<br />

and a fair critic, but he<br />

can kiss my [backside]<br />

as a man and he never<br />

hit a ball out of the<br />

infi eld in his life.”<br />

Hemingway disliked Zelda for cheating on Scott<br />

with a French aviator. (Who can blame him?)<br />

In Zelig, Allen stands<br />

next to the African-<br />

American “it girl”<br />

dancer and actress in<br />

a newsreel clip from<br />

the 1920s.<br />

The painter and the pianist met on the French<br />

Riviera through Porter’s American friends,<br />

Gerald and Sara Murphy.<br />

Hemingway savaged his old drinking buddy<br />

Fitzgerald in his memoir A Moveable Feast for,<br />

essentially, being a wuss.<br />

F. Scott Fitzgerald and his wife, Zelda, were<br />

regular visitors at Stein’s salons.<br />

Hemingway used Stein’s era-defi ning expression<br />

“the Lost Generation” in The Sun Also Rises, but<br />

the two later had a falling out.<br />

The works of Man Ray and Picasso were<br />

celebrated at the fi rst-ever Surrealist exhibition<br />

in 1925; both attended the fête.<br />

Man Ray snapped a well-known picture of his<br />

friends Dalí and Buñuel that has them making<br />

“wild eyes” at the camera.<br />
