Woody delivers again
12 May 2020
So, I am pleased to announce myself as a Woody Allen fan. I wasn't sure before, but if I look back at all the single movies I watched directed by him.. there wasn't a single one I didn't REALLY like. So, does this qualify me as a Woody Allen fan? I think so.

Maybe his comedies are not for everyone but I love their simplicity, their cleverness, their atmosphere..

This one has some GREAT performances of people I didn't even know and an excellent acting from Selena Gomez, who is, in my opinion, very underrated as an actress, because she's totally real and sincere (The Fundamentals of Caring gave an example as well).

Timotheé is new (at least for me) and I have to say I was pleased to see him in the role of the protagonist and his chemistry with Gomez felt deep and meaningful.. Maybe, as a hopeless musician myself, it was really easy to relate to him as he struggles to find his own way in a sick world, with a big wonderful city such as New York to fulfill his dreams.

Check this out. You will feel good at the end, and probably want to see it again, to experience the depth of the characters once again.
