Review of The Purple Rose of Cairo (1985) by Paul P — 09 Nov 2009
I was on the fence about this one. The comedy isn't Allen's best but there are a few solid lines. And the drama involved didn't really grab me. But a day after I saw it, it kinda grew on me.
The story is very sweet but it doesn't become sappy, which is always a tightrope in my opinion. That last shot with Mia Farrow made it worth the price of admission for me.
