Murky

Rating: 8/10 (8 February 2020)

Alvy hasn't much confidence. He must be some kind of loser in the bedroom. He's no big muscular bruiser. He is browbeaten by Mother, and is such a dweeb elsewhere. He's a know it all who doesn't know much. It's called "Annie", but it's about Alvy's glaring insecurities. It's a personality study about his life, notwithstanding his several sexual partners who as a group find him sort of an underwhelming nobody. Annie, on the other hand, seems to be his major failure. In real life, these two actors had a relationship a few years before this film was made. Question: Do all/most of these women have to jump into bed with Alvy the minute they've laid eyes on him? What's his secret? Millions of men want to know.
