Todd Z. @Toddlovesmovies Jan 4 One of Woody Allen’s top films. Psychology thrilling and great cast! See more thiago s @Thiagostone Aug 23 Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom See more Alain E @AlainE 05/28/2025 One of his worst films. A waste of very good actors. See more Alec B @Alec97 02/26/2024 One of Allen's most beguiling movies. His script is atypically mysterious and the brilliant performance of Rowlands along with the beautiful cinematography only add to the atmosphere. See more Jeff M @jeffmarshallmovieblogger 01/22/2024 I know it's not a popular sentiment, but Woody Allen is my favorite filmmaker of all time. I believe his run of movies from the late 70s to the mid 90s, with a few missteps along the way, is unparalleled. And this mesmerizing drama may be the least known masterwork of his repertoire. I fully understand why some will find this pretentious - characters refer to German poetry and the works of Rilke and stagings of Mother Courage. The characters are upper-middle class WASPs who are heads of philosophy departments and cardiologists. And yet, I have watched this motion picture repeatedly and find myself absolutely transfixed every single time. Without getting too personal, part of my fascination is that I relate on many levels to the main character portrayed by Rowlands in a brilliant performance that definitely should have been Oscar nominated. It's a deceptively complex role because she is constantly protected by the psychological armor she uses to protect her from digging too deeply into her own psyche to acknowledge what lies under the surface. There are scenes here almost too uncomfortable to watch, including one with Betty Buckley as a jilted ex-wife and one with an amazing Sandy Dennis as a former best friend who admits their parting of ways wasn't accidental. I'm generally not a fan of narration in movies, but this is one of the rare occasions where it enhances what we're watching rather than lazily filling in the gaps of what we're missing. This is the farthest thing from a feel-good movie, but the ending provides a glimmer of hope and anticipation for the future. It's one of Woody's best unheralded gems.
