Non-nutritive film reviews

A film that is biased towards narrative.
Compared with Woody Allen's earlier, it's actually quite different. Although he is still nagging in this movie, there are basically no obscure political and philosophical discussions. (At least I can understand most of them without the Chinese subtitles.)
Danny Rose has always been in the dust, working hard for the performance, and the people he discovered have left him one after another to find another way out. He has to coax a woman for the singers he has cultivated, and take such a big risk for this woman, which is really in line with the general law of describing small-person movies-no matter how tragedy is, it can't stop it. But the ending is actually a bit warm.
In addition to the protagonist himself who is still very Woody Allen, in fact, this story is not special in his style.

Broadway Danny Rose quotes

  • Danny Rose: [to the husband of a woman who hasn't woken up by Danny Rose's hypnotist act] I promise you, if your wife never wakes up again, I promise you I will take you to any restaurant of your choice.

  • Danny Rose: I think about you in the long run. That's what I'm sayin'. You're - you're the kinda guy that will always make a beautiful dollar in this business. You know what I mean? You're what I call a perennial. You - you get better lookin' as you get older.

    Lou Canova: That's true. When I'm out there singin', I can feel the women mentally undressing me. It's true!
