Review of You Will Meet a Tall Dark Stranger (2010) by Tom S — 11 Aug 2011

Unlike most films dir. by woody allen, this one has bit of a fractured narrative which makes its meaning very elusive. Good ensemble cast, decent performances all around but not as good as one might expect.

Part of the problem is that it is over cast, too many characters written each with too little screen time to develop, each storyline meandering aimlessly and sometimes unrealistically it seemed. The themes were not terribly interesting but the film was entertaining nevertheless as it has the trademarks of a gifted director.
