As is typical of Woody Allen's films, this story begins quickly with a short and precise description of it's characters, and immediately draws you into their out of the ordinary but not so un-relateable lives.
At first, I had a hard time adjusting to the narrator's tale intertwined with the story but upon watching it again (and especially with a toddler running around my home), I decided that I love the third party description as well as the character's dialogue.
I like Woody Allen movies, so perhaps it is no surprise I liked this one... If you like his movies too, you'll love this one. If you don't or haven't seen any, I suggest Annie Hall for starters!
So why do I love it? I think because this movie reveals the beauty of people, not physical beauty (although this movie has a great looking cast), but the intimate beauty that we all possess. The kind of thing you only see in the people you love, when you or they are most vulnerable. I feel beautiful after watching this movie and like my talents are worthwhile, that I walk on air!
