I’d be willing to bet that this Woody Allen film has the largest body-count of any of his films. But, despite the sporadic violence, Cafe Society is a mediation on Love. Beautifully filmed by cinematographer Vittorio Storaro, who filmed Last Tango in Paris, Apocalypse, Now, and Reds. Jesse Eisenberg plays a young man who ends up working for his uncle, a Hollywood agent. He meets stars, but falls for an office girl. Complications result. Jesse Eisenberg returns to New York City and runs a night club with his gangster brother. Complications ensue. The Past forces Jesse Eisenberg’s character to ponder his choices in life and in love. This is a pleasant movie, but no more. GRADE: B
George, did you do something wrong, offend someone at the NSA maybe?
Your site wasn’t available most of yesterday (and the day before …) and now it seems some comments are lost.
Naughty boy?
Wolf, I think the Russians hacked my blog. I’m just glad the blog is up and running again!
Probably the Feds were looking over the “Hillary” comments!
Dan, I think our comments here are more interesting than those Hillary emails about yoga lessons and Chelsea’s wedding plans!
I bet it was Obama. After all, Trump’s spokesperson said he was responsible for Capt. Khan’s death…even though it took place FIVE YEARS before Obama was, you know, actually President.
Jeff, Trump seems to be self-destructing. The Republican Party will end up repudiating Trump.
I agree. If McCain or Ryan could just man up and be the first, I think the floodgates would open.
Jeff, I’m surprised McCain didn’t stand up to Trump during that incident a year ago when Trump mocked McCain’s experience as a prisoner-of-war.
They’re trying to hang onto Tea Partisan votes. McCain particularly.
Todd, the Latino voters in Arizona will doom McCain.
Welcome back. Go ahead and add your comments on this post so we can see what it is, then hurry and catch up, you’re 2 days behind. Oh, and I’ll take a refill on my iced tea.
Rick, the blog is still missing a couple of posts. They might come back, or they might be lost in cyberspace!
