Thank God, and the French!

Woody Allen receives courtesy every year at Cannes. If it wasn't for the support of the French, he probably wouldn't be able to raise the money to make a film in Hollywood, so it's impossible to say that. I think this movie is a gift for the French, but it is unlikely that Woody Allen will be a naked flatterer, so a director who was once talented but temporarily blind was arranged to film it at once. A film that the French call a masterpiece. Flattered, and did not lose Woody Allen's personal dignity.

Most of Woody Allen's movies are looking for a satirical target, satirizing men, women, and the world. To say how profoundly he satirized Hollywood is beyond the point of making him satirize a glass of plain water he was drinking. He can do it too, and we'll never have to worry about his broken mouth having nothing to say. So let's put aside the overly big topic of criticizing Hollywood for a while, let's start with the movie title to see what he really wants to say.

A man who has lost his woman recaptures the beauty at the end of the film. A director at a low point in his career is recognized and praised by the great French at the end of the film. Career + Woman + Paris =! ! ! Isn't a Hollywood ending always a Happy Ending?

Said he satirized Hollywood, in fact, Hollywood's philosophy is exactly Woody Allen's outlook on life, one is unconditional compromise with the market (money), and the other is to always conspire with the impermanent real life. Woody Allen in the movie complains and complains, but he is in reality. I think it may always be a satisfied smirk with small eyes narrowed. Don't be too enjoyable!
