Just wanted to watch something, and it was the most sensible choice among the DVDs I borrowed from Netflix - other rented ones are: Madagascar 2, Bangkok Express and the Piano.
I also have several DVDs I bought, but I somehow don't feel like watching them.
Well... about this movie...
What can I say... it's a Woody Allen movie.
Chaos is needed to maintain order and stability...
and human beings are as complex as one can imagine...
Yellowish lighting to fit in the summer of Barcelona... but it was maintained through the last scene when it was already in the U.S. setting...
Good actors and actresses...
I am not sure if Penelope Cruz's acting was worth the Oscar, though.
Maybe because of all the subtitles I had to read instead of watching her face whenever she was on the screen and speaking Spanish.
While watching this movie, I just re-confirmed that I have a soul that needs to be meditated every now and then,
and although ironically I am doing something related to reasons and am ever-worshiping reasons, I am a being who needs a constant conversation with my emotions and soul, which could be just one thing.
Can't wait to have a get away, go to some hotel by water and read...
Maybe not until mid-June.
3.5/5
