Earlier in the day, these lines from Schneepart struck my fancy:
About ten 'til 5:00 this afternoon I looked up the local offerings on Fandango. I noticed the new Woody Allen, Midnight in Paris, was starting in twenty minutes, so I got myself together and headed out.
I knew nothing about it at all - and that was a good thing. Though maybe not at the level of Hannah & her sisters, it's a fairly good Woody movie, and entirely delightful. And like many of the good Woody movies it's a whimsical fantasy. It has some of the usual ingredients: a self-doubting writer as hero/narrator, a relationship on the verge of collapse, an amazing cast (Marion Cotillard, Rachel McAdams, Kathy Bates, Adrien Brody, Owen Wilson for starters), and an even more amazing set of characters.
You should go.
– auch du | – you too | |
hättest ein Recht auf Paris, | would have a right to Paris | |
würdest du deiner | could you know yourself | |
bitterer inne –, | more bitterly –, |
