Gentle, whimsical and sumptuously-shot – the brand new old thing by Woody Allen.

Woody Allen’s latest feature is a gentle and whimsical romantic comedy-drama that moves along at the leisurely pace you might expect from an 80-year-old director. It is very sumptuously shot in golden-hued, autumnal colours by the great cinematographer Vittorio Storaro. It has an intricately plotted screenplay and a beguiling jazz soundtrack. The movie boasts charming and intelligent lead performances from Kristen Stewart and Jesse Eisenberg – a career-highlight for Eisenberg, actually, who plays a white tuxedo-ed Manhattan nightclub manager whose broken heart has caused him to undergo a Bogartian growing up: from a gauche boy to a mature, disillusioned man, trapped in the wrong marriage.
