Can't decide

Rating: 6/10 (6 July 2012)

Same age as Woody. From same neighborhood. Great, nah. Enjoyable, okay. But on this one, can't decide beyond that level. Being decisive and indecisive, being experienced or inexperienced, seem to be underlying themes, with subterfuges by the characters to be neither or both.
First Woody Allen movie where I found his music choices lazy, I mean, Domenico Modugno's tired "Volare" to vamp us in? Come ON, man!
Worth seeing for the outstanding performances of young actors Allison Pill 27 and Ellen Page 25 though as I recall they did zero scenes together. Ellen and Allison / Page and Pill. Love to see Woody write a 3-act story, for film, for the two to solo in, maybe add Alan Rickman as Greek chorus, as Alex Baldwin was in this one.
As to this movie, some hit-n-run philosophical points made, and Woody finally recreated his orgasmotron, at least metaphorically, which suggests he's got some slapstick left in him. Though it was not nearly as funny.
Stay tuned. 77 ain't nuthin'. Ask me. Per IMDb, his next effort is back in NooYawk to which I say, 'bout time!
Next day I had this added thought. That since these three or four (?) separate stories are not connected, perhaps they had accrued in Woody's notebook over time as individual unplaced items, and he finally found a way to incorporate them into one structure. Possible? And perfectly legit as creative process if they work in that context.
