Hannah and Her Sisters (1986)
This is another Woody Allen movie , But it was taken in the 1980s.
This film tells about the career and love life of the three sisters from a family of actors. Among the three sisters, Hannah has a smooth career as an actor and inherited his mother's mantle; Holly has repeatedly frustrated in various auditions and had to open a catering company with friends; Lee lives with a painter who does not interact with the outside world. Hannah's current husband likes Lee very much and often finds excuses to be with her. One day after Thanksgiving, Hannah's current husband kissed Lee, and Lee felt the same for him. As a result, the two began frequent private meetings. Hannah's ex-husband is a strange person, because a false alarm during a doctor visit completely changed his attitude towards life and began to find the meaning of life. Holly is a loser in the eyes of everyone. He failed to audition many times, and was robbed of her boyfriend by a friend, so she had to write. A year later, Lee left the painter and broke up with Hannah's current husband because of his weakness; Hannah's former husband was looking for beliefs and changing religions; Hannah herself became very confused because of the misfortune of her married life; Holly's script was written Everyone liked it afterwards, but Hannah was very unhappy because she wrote about her life in the script, so Holly had to rewrite it. After Holly wrote it, she ran into Hannah's ex-husband who found her life goal in a video store. The two had an unpleasant date, but they all changed. In this way, the two gradually understood and developed feelings. Thanksgiving Day came another year, Lee met a very good boyfriend, Hannah and her current husband were reconciled as before, and Hannah's former husband married Holly and became pregnant with a child.
The film is a very good-looking light comedy, which is very enjoyable, but the theme of the film is not very deep. This film only shows the ordinary life of New Yorkers, showing the emotional entanglements and career ups and downs of men and women in New York City. It is a very "Woody Allen" comedy film. Of course, this film still has its uniqueness, in that it tells the story of two "sister-in-laws falling in love with brother-in-law". From another perspective, it is very Chinese.
The plot of the film is very scattered, there is no unified story, only a few distinctive characters are created: the cowardly Hannah current husband, the strong Hannah, the neurotic Hannah former husband, the low emotional intelligence Lee, the lack of self-confidence Holly, and the coquettish. Mother, stubborn father. These various characters with very different personalities are the main content Woody Allen wants to express-New York sentient beings, but you need to add an attributive "eighties" in front. From my personal understanding of Woody Allen, I know that this film is still a show of Woody Allen's New York feelings. He is proud of being a New Yorker and has been telling the story of New York. In short, the trivial life is all about the movie, and it doesn't have deep metaphors, or the tortuous plots and other difficult contents like other movies.
The filming was quite satisfactory, except for the long shots when Woody Allen appeared on the scene, nothing special. But the New York in the film left a deep impression on me, because through the pictures in the film, I can see the real side of New York and the city atmosphere. My feeling is that New York is a very polarized city, with both prosperous streets and dirty urban lanes, not as beautiful as depicted in other media. Moreover, many buildings in the city give people a gray feeling, just like a doomsday city. Living in such a city makes people feel gray. Is this the New York that everyone praises? In fact, I hope this is the feeling of the movie to the audience, rather than the real New York.
Finally, the dialogue in this film is very funny, and many of them are unexpectedly funny, such as the phrase "I am happy, but I don't know I am happy"! That's too much! It can be seen that this film is well-deserved of the Oscar for Best Original Screenplay.
The cast of this film is strong. The protagonist Woody Allen does not say anything, a middle-aged man, he interprets himself. Supporting actor Michael Caine, this acting school exemplifies Hannah's current husband's solitary and timid character vividly and truly. The actors of the three sisters, Barbara Hershey, Mia Farrow, and Dianne Wiest, are all acting. The three red stars in the 1980s were regulars of various acting awards, and they all won. It's just that these three actresses are not beauties. It's a pity that such a movie with women as the protagonist.
in conclusion. This film is a good-looking and relaxing light comedy. It does not have too deep themes, but has the most ordinary life. It is worth watching. However, this film is not Woody Allen's best film, it belongs to the upper-middle level.
