Georgia O'Keeffe (1:29) 2009

Joan Allan stars as the famous American female painter in this made for television movie. The biopic starts in 1916 as Joan meets her future husband, Alfred Steiglitz, a photographer. Steiglitz recognizes O'Keeffe's talent and promotes her artwork. After Steiglitz obtains his long awaited divorce, they marry and O'Keeffe receives notoriety when Steiglitz has a showing of his photography with O'Keeffe as his nude model. Eventually, O'Keeffe discovers that Steiglitz is having an affair. This prompts O'Keeffe to visit friends in Taos, New Mexico. She settles in Taos and will later reunite with her husband for a brief time. Jeremy Irons plays Alfred and is absolutely wonderful as the womanizing art gallery owner/manager. The biography ends shortly after his death. My daughter and I watched this together and we both liked it very much. O'Keeffe was a very interesting woman who was well ahead of her time. I'm not a big fan of her art work but she is important to the American art world. Check it out.
