Woody Allen

I remember this film. Not bad at all compared to some of his recent films.

The son saying something about critics being the lowest form of beings and so on. Woody says "but they were right this time". Son says something like "when I get mauled by critics, I eat another rat". :lol:

And also, "Thank God the french exist" after agent reveals to him about next film in Paris. :D

He used to complain about his son for wearing ear-ring, nose ring, nipple ring Very Happy Very Happy - and then eating a live rat in a concert.

Oh yes. Woody says "don't call it a concert", "that's not my concept of a concert", etc. Very funny. :D

Watched Interiors last night - I felt a more or less similar reaction that i had after watching Scenes From a Marriage

A very good discussion on the film here and a big :exactly: for PR for all his points on the film

:thumbsup:

There are similarities to the SFAM lead characters. Of course, they lend quite a few features to many Woody Allen characters. :)

Yes. I too have read that Mr. Bergman is Woody's idol.

BTW, SFAM poster-dhaney Selvaraghavan suttaru, for his Maalai nerathu mayakkam ???

Yes, you're right. Particularly I liked those scenes where he played a blind man. Very natural.

And, from your earlier posts, I would say that you are an expert in film analysis. You have abundant & profound knowledge, sharp analytical skills and great articulating talent. You deserve a doctorate to be bestowed upon you :D

From now, I hereby declare you to be called as Dr. Kid-glove and welcome you to the prestigious club of talents which includes, Dr. Prabhuram, Dr. Equanimus, Dr. Kannan, Dr. Bala (Karthik), Dr. Ajithfederer………...........

Dr. Kid-glove – Dr. Strangelove, ah !! what a rhyming similarity !!! Hope you don’t have a Nazi background and that your right arm is as normal & active as your left :D

Thanks for the excessive praise, Dr. Rangan

What a lovely film.
Woody everywhere and nowhere kind of film again.

What terrific acting, the characterizations are impressive and everytime we start getting absorbed in the seriousness of the situation, he whacks us on the head with it.

Possibly the most self-conscious filmmaker ever.

Alice discussing the script idea with her friend and her reactions/pigeonholing - it is impossibly well-written.

When time passes we think things about ourselves and go on to self-fulfill what we think. Things can be undone, which may render time-passed to be meaningless. But that would imply we considered there was meaning in the first place. Are we are relations, with their insecurities, convictions, inheritances and 'morals'. What happens when thoses bases shake, do we want to shake them.

The ending is so gleefully contrived but hey this movie had ghosts, invisibility, an angelic music and sokkupodi. What the hell am I talking about !

To quote Penelope Cruz from VCB
: "I am not talking about talent. Genious ! Genious !"

:bow:

இப்பிடி எல்லாம் கோர்வையே இல்லாம என்னை உளர வைக்க...வுடியால மட்டுமே முடியும் :clap:

I watched it again in Sony pix quite recently.
