Woody Allen's obscenity

Roger Albert said in his evaluation of "Midnight Paris" that "Woody must have died when he wrote this movie." This is a pertinent evaluation from Lafayette that basically applies to every movie of Woody Allen. If you think about it, if you can make a movie of your obscene stuff with confidence, there are still a lot of celebrities who go to guest appearances, and then they are applauded and acclaimed. The film critics still pull down to cover up close, only in the world. Woody Allen can do this easily...oh, yes, there may be Quentin.
The English name of the movie aphrodite represents the goddess of love in ancient Greece. Following this stalk, Woody borrowed a serious ancient Greek tragedy in the movie, but the original sad monologue became a joke of hunchback, and the theme was also From an unyielding struggle with fate, it became a satire and reflection on the relationship between the sexes. Yes, gender, this serious and great topic has always been the core of Woody Allen's movies. In the film, Lenny, who is clearly attracted by Linda, deceives herself and behaves because of her family and wife, and persuades her to be good. Faced with such a big brainless and open girl, Lenny defended her conscience at first, and then fell after learning that her wife was cheating. Like every man, subconsciously wishing to derail but not shouldering any moral responsibility, Woody gave the protagonist a chance to have such an affair. As a result, the cannon was also fired, and everyone was still happy ending. In fact, Woody is not just pure obscenity, because of his genius comedy talent, the story has many wonderful details and irony, such as the last meeting with each other’s children, and he also said polite words, such as Lenny helping Linda and Pimp The image of intellectuals in the guest talks makes the movie truly a satirical comedy with allegorical meaning. Although the essence is still obscene...
but to be honest, I still like this movie. After all, it's all men...
