I took my sister tonight to see Woody Allen’s new flick.  What’s crazy, is that she is so young, she barely knows of Allen, or his films for that matter.  Her age is barely an excuse.  Anyway, on my out of the film, I spotted a media mogul exiting the film with his wife.  This guy is a legend, having startled ”old” and “new” media in the highest capacities, and while not unequivocally successful in his latter role, he is most certainly a BOSS.

I couldn’t help wondering though, if dude had empathized with the character played by Owen Wilson.  Or was actually envious.  Shit, I’ll admit I was… am.

Back to the flick.  Woody is just so good at being heavy handed with the messaging, and it not being corny.  I’m not sure quite how he does it, even when the performances feel odd and forced.  The chick opposite Owen Wilson, his cliche annoying nagging fiance that’s not right for him, played her role all contrived and forced feeling, but despite that, Woody is still able to convey his message with a subtly that is unique to him.  Genius.  Or just prolific enough at this point that he can self reflex on his own shit.  Whoa!  Like Lil Wayne!

My friend Min told me I’d want to goto Paris after seeing the film, she’s right.

Real Jews move in silence like Mazoh Brie.  Woody is a g. Go see the film.
