Plot: In 1943, a young painter, Françoise Gilot (1921- ) meets Pablo Picasso (1881-1973), already the most celebrated artist in the world. For the next ten years, she is his mistress, bears him two children, is his muse, and paints within his element. She also learns slowly about the other women who have been or still are in his life: Dora Maar, Marie- Thérèse (whose daughter is Picasso's), and Olga Koklowa, each of whom seems deeply scarred by their life with Picasso. Gilot's response is to bring each into her relationship with Picasso. How does one survive Picasso? She keeps painting, and she keeps her good humor and her independence. When the time comes, she has the strength to leave.

Quotes:

Dora Maar: You may be a great painter, but you are morally corrupt. You've contaminated the whole world.

Dora Maar: Who are your friends?::Pierre: Francoise and Genevieve. They're painters.::Dora Maar: What do they paint, besides their finger nails?

Dora Maar: Perhaps she thinks you'll immortalize her. Don't raise her hopes, Picassos may prove to be no more immortal than the skeleton of some extinct bird of prey.

Dora Maar: It's true, I do not have a child. But I think he finds me equally, if not more amusing without one.
