Zany film mixes satire of science fiction comic books with wild comedy about almost anything.

Rating: 2/5 --
Weak Martin and Lewis, and dated laughs.
Kansas City Kansan
4 stars out of 5 -- Shot in magisterial black-and-white, veteran director Trueba's drama is a welcome return from the BELLE EPOQUE man.
Empire
The lovely and poignant drama THE ARTIST AND THE MODEL stirringly presents art, life and death as one irrevocably tangled trio.
Los Angeles Times
Better to be "seized in a pitiless mesh of imbecilities" than to be bored to death.

There is Claudia Cardinale, whose beauty is stupefying, in a role as a perfect wife. The plot also prominently features bread, olive oil and joie de vivre.

Product Description:
A sculptor living in German-occupied France forges an unlikely friendship with a young refugee who is fleeing Franco's army in this tender drama from writer/director Fernando Trueba (THE MIRACLE OF CANDEAL, CHICO & RITA). The year is 1943. Eighty-year-old artist Marc Cros (Jean Rochefort) has survived two wars, and bore witness to far more horrors than he wishes to recall. Marc has long given up sculpting, but when his wife (Claudia Cardinale) happens across a desperate fugitive named Merce (Aida Folch), the pair agree to shelter her in his studio. Meanwhile, long after Marc thought possible, inspiration strikes. Now as Merce poses for Marc's final sculpture, a powerful bond forms between them.
