The Post-Impressionists

The film follows Dick Carew, the son of a soap-maker, and Dorothy Wilton, the daughter of a lawyer, as they navigate the artistic landscape of Paris. Their encounter with post-impressionist artists at a cabaret reveals the absurdity of their theories, which challenge common sense and decency. Dick, naive about art, finds himself captivated by the pretentiousness of the Cubists, leading to humorous situations as he tries to impress Dorothy.

As a lost film, The Post-Impressionists adds a layer of intrigue for collectors. The rarity of this title makes it a notable piece for those interested in early 20th-century cinema and the evolution of comedy. Its portrayal of artistic movements also provides a historical context that may appeal to enthusiasts of art and film alike.
