Midnight in Paris (2011, dir. Woody Allen): rom com souffle with a nostalgic Parisian garnish

10 Jul

imageWoody Allen still churns them out, this time a rom com souffle located in Paris, with a garnish of 1920s nostalgia. Owen Wilson is actually not bad as a put-upon writer, and Marion Cotillard is the luminous love interest. Add some jokes for the Hemingway/ Picasso/ Dali/ Fitzgerald crowd, and Allen’s fashioned a movie that would appeal to lovers of last year’s similarly light and fluffy The King’s Speech.
