Loser

Irony as always, mockery as always, as if he is the only one sober in this world, this is Woody Allen. That's why some people think he's abominable, why don't they keep holding on to these unhappy ones, and don't lift the pot without opening it, and some people like his sobriety and his irony. Most of these people are not so optimistic about people and the world, nor do they pretend to be so, and are willing to face the world directly. Jasmine in the film will probably be in the former category. She hated LOSER all her life, stared at them, and stayed away from them, which is why she condoned any behavior of her husband. It seems that a successful person is like this, courage, action, and courage. But just under her unrestricted connivance to successful people, her husband became a fraudster, not only causing him to go bankrupt, but also carrying a whole body of debt; his son left him, he told Jasmine, I hate you more than my father, because of this. Everything is your connivance. That's it, because I didn't want to be a LOSER, I eventually became a complete LOSER.
This is the first time Woody Allen has turned his attention to spaces beyond the relationship between the sexes, and the sometimes unbearable nagging of the past is gone. At such a young age, he is still playing and playing so well. I like it.

Blue Jasmine quotes

  • [last lines]

    Jasmine: [talking to herself] It's fraught with peril. They gossip, you know, they talk. I saw Danny. Yes, did I tell you? He's getting married. A weekend in Palm Beach means I can wear... what could I wear? I can wear the Dior dress I bought in Paris. Yes, my black dress. Well, Hal always used to surprise me with jewelry. Extravagant pieces. I think he used to buy them at auction. It's so obvious what you're doing. You think I don't know. French au pair.

    [Blue Moon begins playing]

    Jasmine: This was playing on the Vineyard. Blue Moon. I used to know the words. I knew the words. Now they're all a jumble.

  • Jasmine: Tip big boys, tip big because you get good service and they count on tips.
