Midnight in Paris
Pitch-perfect Woody Allen - more nostalgia & romance than humor, but a delightful 90 minutes. Plenty of love letters have been written about all things Paris - particularly Paris in the 20’s - but Woody Allen has the courage and the chops to one-up all of them. Owen Wilson perfectly cast, and the historical characters come to life - from Hemingway to F. Scott and Zelda - are just as you’d like to imagine them. Great performances all around and a brave message at the core: yearning for the “golden days gone by” is a human nature flaw that is doomed to repeat itself from generation to generation.
