"Welcome to L.A." is a 1976 film directed by Alan Rudolph and starring Keith Carradine.

Plot

The theme of romantic dispair is displayed utilizing a La Ronde-like circle of sexual adventures and failed affairs centered around songwriter Carroll Barber, played by Keith Carradine, which spread out through the city. Barber is an aloof womanizer who cannot commit or love and is used by Alan Rudolph to illustrate the loneliness inherent in big-city life. The film features a continual score by Richard Baskin, present throughout, and features among its cast Sally Kellerman as a lonely real estate agent, Geraldine Chaplin, as a Valley housewife addicted to taxi rides, Lauren Hutton as the mistress of a wealthy man, Sissy Spacek as a southern housekeeper, and Harvey Keitel as a troubled business man.
