Woody's Best Film in Years

Rating: 9/10 (13 June 2011)

We felt like driving to the airport to get a flight to Paris after seeing this gorgeous, funny and poignant film. For Woody Allen fans there are numerous characters, scenes and lines that relate to his body of work. However, he puts them together with a fresh approach, and Owen Wilson is surprisingly perfect as the conflicted first time novelist.
In fact, ALL the cast are just spot-on perfect in their roles, and the sets and costumes are fantastic. It's doubtful that a 'small' movie like this will get Academy consideration, but it should at least for the costumes and set design. The main plot line dictates a LOT of demands on these crafts.
I urge you to see this movie on the big screen to drink in the full body of Woody Allen's vision.
