It should belong to Woody Allen's more casual, even a little perfunctory movie. Several unrelated independent stories are interwoven in the film.
In the first story, a young couple from rural areas who entered the city originally planned to get the support of relatives in the city to start their own business in the city. As a result, the wife went out and lost her way, and she accidentally met the movie star she had always admired, which led to an ironic affair, which satisfied her inner desires. On the husband's side, he pretended to be a husband and wife with a sex worker who went through the wrong door. Although he annoyed his relatives, he got the true secret of the secret technique in the house. After the husband and wife reunited, their experiences after their separation were not mentioned.
In the second story, the young man fell in love with his girlfriend's best friend. This best friend is an actor and a veteran in love. She is very familiar with all kinds of teasing and teasing methods, playing the young man in the palm of her hand. Just when the young man was about to formally confess to his best friend, she received a very important acting invitation, so she immediately changed her face and stopped being ambiguous with the young man. Only then did the young man understand that what she had done before was just a rehearsal. What's more interesting is that in the story, the young man is always accompanied by a guy who complains on the spot. Only the young man himself talks and argues with him, while others turn a blind eye to him. Apparently, he was another voice inside the materialized lad.
In the third story, Woody Allen himself played a retired opera manager. With painstaking efforts and hard work, he finally put his in-laws, a bathroom singer, on the opera stage and became a star that attracted much attention. The in-laws could not sing officially on stage, so they could only get a mobile shower room and sing while washing on stage. The performance scene was very absurd.
In the fourth story, little people become famous celebrities overnight, and personal trivial matters such as what to eat for breakfast and what to shave with have become the focus of attention and topics of relish. His attitude to this ranged from surprise to annoyance, and from annoyance to fascination. When he suddenly returned to his original state, he could no longer accept himself without a sense of existence.
Some of these stories are about love, and some have nothing to do with love. Stories about love actually show no love, or fake love. This is one of the great tastes of Woody Allen's films - irony. It's just that the irony of this film is too obvious and too trivial. As for Rome, it's just the place where the story takes place, and it has nothing to do with the story itself. The story in another place is still these stories. Therefore, the name "To Rome with Love" really has the suspicion of selling dog meat.
