Review of The Purple Rose of Cairo (1985) by Mrcn M — 02 Jul 2007
I could watch this endlessly. One of my favorite Woody Allen films. What's really brilliant about this film is everything about it. It's hilarious, the story is sharp and original, Daniels and Farrow and the supporting cast are at their best, and the innovation combined with the acting and clever script make this an incredibly masterpiece.
Despite the hilarity, the underlying sadness is beautifully conveyed- the struggle and heartache of Cecilia is really felt by the audience. It's bittersweet, romantic, and full of laughs and twists to last a lifetime.
