In the past two years, the old man's relationship with love and the relationship between husband and wife has become more and more soft, from the end of the match in 2006, killing; the midnight in Barcelona in 2008; to the past two years in Paris, the soft treatment of the coffee commune. What you can't get is always a commotion. It's the old man's view of women. The satire and reflection of the American middle class have always existed in the old man's films. In fact, the entire coffee commune depicts the problems and conditions of the American middle class. The drunken nightclub and Hollywood, the intersection of officials and the underworld, the dissatisfaction of the bottom people and the sober words of sociologists, these are the contents that Woody Allen brings to the moviegoers. Of course, life is like this, there are many variables, whether you like it or not, you have to live, no matter how obsessed with the past, you have to live in the present. Woody Allen is undoubtedly a golden age Hollywood fanatic, living in this era, his heart is in that era. Aside from the connotation of the film, as far as the film itself is concerned, this film is basically a full score, with warm tones throughout, and excellent composition, so that every frame can be used as a wallpaper, and the director's fascination with the golden age makes the audience There's also a hint of '40s and '50s Hollywood comedy in this film, and with Woody Allen's typically saucy narration and graceful pipe-hyun instrumentation, this movie looks like a treat. As an ordinary genre film, there is no innovation and breakthrough in audio-visual language, but he has fulfilled the requirements of a good genre film.
