A very good movie

Even though I keep watching most of his movies, I have really built-up a love-hate relationship with Woody Allen's recent work. I mean, even his successes like 'Midnight in Paris' or 'Vicky Cristina Barcelona', even I did like them, are still vastly overrated in my opinion. Still, I really wanted to check this older flick and, boy, at last, I wasn't disappointed. Basically, it was such a great reminder about how talented and witty he used to be as a director. Indeed, within the first 10 minutes, I was completely hooked. Indeed, it was funny, smart, the characters and the dialogs were just so well written, it was just spellbinding to watch. To be honest, it must have even pretty weird to watch this flick when it was released since, right in the middle of its production, Woody Allen and Mia Farrow when through one of the most scandalous and nasty break-ups ever. Even more than 20 years later, the whole thing is still rather weird when you watch this flick as Woody Allen broke up with Mia Farrow so he could be with her daughter who was just about 20 years old at the time. Anyway, if you manage to put Woody Allen's weird private life aside, it is actually a really good flick and it is definitely worth a look, especially if you are interested in Woody Allen's work.
