A visual feast that serves lashings of delights

Rating: Null/10 (13 November 2011)

Midnight in Paris is for me, one the best films that Woody Allen has produced in a long time. The crux of the film encapsulates the need to find escape from unhappy situations and for our protagonist writer, the thought of a superficial existence in Hollywood, with wife to be...leads him to escape into a wonderful fantasy. Amazingly, the step from reality into fantasy is not to difficult after the first car ride. As it is easy to join in on the journey - as we meet the talented, the beautiful & charismatic. The production values of this film are overwhelmingly wonderful. Allen's mark as a director seems to be very much on the American family, whilst it would seem the other actors have a freedom to improvise.
