I’ve seen a lot of movies jack themselves off, some of which I actually quite loved, but this one went full autofellatio. This review isn’t even about the allegations against Woody, I actually went in expecting to love this. I would just genuinely love to hear others thoughts on why it’s considered a masterpiece because I feel like I’m...missing something.
I liked the part when they were talking to each other and there are subtitles that say what they’re thinking
How is it possible that someone as insufferable as Woody Allen's character had multiple long-term relationships???
the single only relatable thing about this mental masturbation of a movie is diane keaton's fear of bugs
A movie so good that even 40 years and one pedophilia allegation later, its director was still able to persuade Timothée Chalamet to cast his lot with him in the quixotic hope of recapturing even a fraction of its magic.
With all the time-jumping and fourth-wall-breaking and nifty use of cinematic techniques (split-screen, animation, subtitles), there's a sense of excitement with the possibilities of the medium here that hasn't been present in Allen's work for a long time. His cinematic worlds have become so vacuum-sealed that it's surprising to be reminded of how this movie actually feels set in the actual New York and plugged into the actual social/intellectual life of the city circa 1977. It doesn't feel like Jason…
THIS is the best sci-fi movie of 1977 because Star Wars doesn’t lead you to believe that Diane Keaton is dating Woody Allen
Oh wait...
Yes, one might argue that this film is fundamentally based on misogynistic premises and that it's so obviously in love with itself to make some sick to their stomach. I get it.
But even being painfully aware of that, I just can't deny the things that this film does best. Starting from the brilliant editing, the unconventional storytelling, the photography, but most of all the genius comedic writing. That sincopated self-deprecating banter and idiosyncratic neurosis that you either loathe or adore have their finest hour (and a half) in this.
And god, the way Diane just shines.
I just can't not love it. In my eyes this will always be the best rom-com ever conceived.
1 star for the woman who threw a lobster at Allen's face. It wasn't much, but it was something.
