Let's Misbehave, by Irving Aaronson and his Commanders
In 1994, Woody's "Bullets Over Broadway" was released. It tells the story of David, a playwright who believes in his talent and values his works and his identity as an artist.
Very early in the film, David's conversation with a friend throws out the myth: "Do you love me, or do you love me as an artist?" And in the final scene of the film, David reiterates this question.
The response to the question also appears twice in the film: "(artists) can create their own ethics". The conclusion given by Woody is in the ending song "Let's Misbehave" when the film ends and the word card is played.
Remember "Let's Do It, Let's Fall in Love" played by Cole Porter in "Midnight in Paris"? As the theme song, the song was first released in the 1928 Broadway musical "Paris". But when the show started rehearsing, the theme song was not it, but "Let's Misbehave", so the yellowness of the latter's lyrics is self-evident.
The origin of "Bullets Over Broadway" and "Midnight in Paris" is not limited to the selection of music, and the core of the two films is even more similar.
David saw that the gangster Cheech, who took the work as his own (even at the risk of murder), took his last breath and tried to improve the play, so he decided to give up the false name that did not belong to him. When the protagonist meets someone who has the same desires as himself, but with stronger desires than himself, he can clearly recognize his face, which is similar to "Midnight in Paris".
And this, as the core support of the two films, is highly consistent with Freud's theory of "id, ego, superego": the incongruity between the id (need to recognize one's artistic talent) and the ego (need to make money) leads to Conflict with superego (derailment, murder), and finally re-coordinated the relationship between the three after the conflict between the three reappeared.
This routine has an amazing interpretation in "Annie Hall", and I will have a chance to talk about it later. Woody has always teased only two important things: "Sex and death"; and "Let's Misbehave" is his finishing touch to the story.
