(...)If you enjoyed it, probably you have a tendency for masochism (which can be used in better ways – see
The Secretary).
And then there’s also Woody Allen…another director that preys on viewers pathological weaknesses* instead on building something new. But I’ll leave him for later. * Denial being the first symptom. |
Firstly, I loved "The Secretary". Great weird, dark humor movie.
Secondly, I'm not in denial :-). And I don't know what you mean by pathological weaknesses. My only weaknesses (in this context, of course) are
* to love jewish humor
* to find funny intelligent men sexy (yes, Woody Allen is sexy!!!)
* and loving jazz (his movies have the best soundtracks!)
It's probably true that his movies are variations of a same theme. But that's art! Look at (or listen to) Tom Waits' Night on Earth, Erik Satie's Gymnopédies, Picasso's Musketeers, Dali's obsession with Caplligat's rocks, etc.
And you are now publically challenged to come and watch Anything Else when it opens here :-)))
p.s.: Hannah and her sisters is my all time favourite. We'll discuss this again when you have watched it!
