whatever

Anything in the movie will work, but in life it may not work. Watching movies
is getting more and more
strenuous
. Finish. In the first 30 minutes of the film, the editing is not as
smooth as the latter, many editing points are very hard, and the transition is not very comfortable; just like the
male lead, he is arrogant and arrogant, talking to anyone like a quarrel, not even a child. Forget it,
such individuals are easy to be isolated, and this is definitely not caused by the previous divorce
. Personality defects will not change because of family and times!

Thirty to sixty minutes, the tone, feel, and rhythm are much better, and the
malleability can make up for all the previous technical deficiencies. In fact, making a movie
should be a very easy thing for Allen. After all, the old man is old, and anyone can forgive any problems. If you
emphasize it with stubbornness, paranoia, or personal style, it will be over, but
here In 30 minutes, we have to sigh at allen's ability to control the movie. He can make
repeated scenes unusual, and he can make deliberately arranged situations acceptable, and
he can make us viewers tolerate an old man's ramble. , When I
found my own shadow from this kind of chatter, I was very lost. Sometimes I was really like this, and
I started to get tired of myself.

After 60 minutes to the end, it was 30 minutes when allen fully demonstrated his level. When
all the impossible became possible and everyone thought it was over, not only did he cleverly use
sub-shots to tell us why it became the final result, but also , also carefully arranged
a group play. All the parties involved were in the same room and had a great conversation. I was really moved.
This moment has nothing to do with love, sex, selfishness, greed, nor morals, ethics, loyalty, and
perseverance. All this is not because of anything, but because The phrase in the film "No matter what kind of happiness you
get or give, don't deceive yourself, it's entirely up
to you..." Just because there is only one self, you can only live this time!

PS: Allen must have a good understanding of history and culture, just like choosing to return to new york this time,
I think only when such a story appears in the city of NY can people understand why
"I Love You, New York" can be filled with a little more. A little sex scenes and ambiguous too!

    The timid people are secretly hurt, the cowardly people are full of complaints, the NB people dare to vent their anger at the whole world, this person is Woody Allen

    Most of the protagonists in Woody Allen's films are like their own bodies, and this time, Larry David's mouth is used to give a comprehensive and multi-angle crazy exposition of his value system and life philosophy. I think the old man is a wise man who has truly penetrated into life. Those absurd stories and remarks always make people smile and then fall into contemplation.

Whatever Works quotes

  • Boris Yellnikoff: [Referring to his first wife] We were both students at the University of Chicago. She had a high I.Q. and a low-cut dress.

  • Leo Brockman: You know, I have to say, even with a text book right wing mentality, your mother-in-law has beautifully shaped breasts.

    Boris Yellnikoff: You know, you-your a man of learning, of cultivation, of aesthetic sensibility, this is what you take away from all that school prayer hokum and my country right or wrong? Her bosom?

    Leo Brockman: Its not just her bosom! Her behind is also beautifully contoured.

    Boris Yellnikoff: Well, I'm sure you'll have no problem getting her to bed. She's vulnerable. She's stupid and she's been abandoned. Personally, I lose all erotic inclination when the woman's a member of the National Rifle Association.

    Leo Brockman: It's pear shaped. Degas used to distinguish between an apple shaped behind and pear shaped. And I'm a big fruit eater.
