New York on a rainy day

After watching "Midnight in Paris" two days ago, I searched for Woody Allen's works. "A Rainy Day in New York" should be the latest work of the old man. After watching "Rainy Days in New York", the most romantic place for me is the ending. The meeting between Gatsby and Chan, I didn't expect the old man to use this kind of ending like a fairy tale. In reality, a lot of times are missed, and then never meet again.

The heroine's story is actually unlikely to happen in real life, but this should be Woody Allen's hope to use such a story to reflect different circles. In fact, I also read other people's film reviews, and then I understand more what he is trying to express. As for the circle, those above will not come down, and those below may go up, but in today's society, it is too difficult to cross the circle. Just like the male protagonist and the female protagonist, although they are both rich, their tastes, temperaments, words, and behaviors are very different.

The male protagonist's disdain clearly shows that he has long been comfortable in this upper-class circle, and the female protagonist's excitement and joy in the face of all the unknowns reacts except that she is actually a country girl who has never seen the big world ( or upstart). Two people are incompatible from the bottom of their hearts, so their values, what they care about, what they like, and what they value are different. In fact, what is enviable for the upper class in New York is that they have more opportunities to contact and create art. The art that they have been fascinated by since childhood, the seeds of art that have been buried deep in their hearts, make them difficult to touch in the eyes of ordinary people. of.

Maybe because I'm not in that circle, I'm still curious about some parts of the circle described by Woody Allen, but everything is, people in it want to go out, people outside the city walls want to come in Bar.

    One of the happiest movies I've watched in half a year. I like the meanness and restraint of all the sarcasm, and I like Gatsby's wave at the end. Decency is the biggest class difference. Woody Allen genuinely despises and genuinely loves women.

    Fanning was acting late, and the expressions and gestures when he spoke were too similar.
