Woddy's at the top of his game

Rating: 10/10 (26 September 2008)

I usually can take or leave most of Woody's pictures. I am probably one of the few people who think Manhattan is his classic, instead of Annie Hall; however, VCB is at the top of the list.
Everything has come together in this one. I don't ever recall so much location filming in one of his films. It really opens up the story. I usually get turned off by a lot of narration, but in this case, it really added to the picture. It will be a crime if Scarlett, Rebecca and Penelope don't receive academy nominations. Scarlett, especially, is a revelation, with a casual, earthy performance.
Stay overseas Woody!!
