Magic and illusion, consistency and contradiction, religious and atheist, determination and confusion, men and women, love, love and not necessarily love. Here is the in Magic in the Moonlight arayan, a film that seeks the true miracle of life and its unique magic.
For half a century, playing, writing, directing and giving us a movie every year. Woody Allen is no longer the same, he hasn’t been making a cinema recently, making a touristic tour, making a movie while he’s ready to walk around, so don’t mind. Let it always produce, let us watch, whatever it draws. Because the pellet carries the marks of a genius.
Following the depressive and shocking Blue Jasmine, who lived almost 80 years of age, he passed from America to Europe with a lighter, more chatty, easier to consume and this time with an optimistic film. Yes, the Magic Moonlight is a spectacle that makes Southern France abode, fixes history to 1928, makes illusion, love, intellectual word crowds feed in 97 minutes, summarizing the illusion from the screen and trying to surprise us. Okay, the script was written a little quick, something that could be terrific, missed, not told anything new, our brother, the director warmed up some old ones, put them back in front of us, but these are among friends, let’s not exaggerate.
You know Woody Allen’s obsession with a blonde woman. Here are Mia Farrow, Diane Keaton, Scarlet Johansson, Cate Blanchet and so on. This time, he breaks the tune and says kızıl red time,, he chooses Emma Stone, a highly talented and cute monument. Oscar-winning actor Colin Firth and Stone, who leaped into more challenging roles as they get older from their teenage girlfriend’s mode, have become a great duo who fits their chemistry. Marcia Gay Harden, Hamish Linklater, Jacki Weaver, Simon McBurney and Eileen Atkins are also involved in the journey of familiar humor to this sweet romantic-comedy format.
The well-known illusionist Stanley has waged war on psychics who claim to have brought information from the other world. Witchcraft is a mechanical work, hard work, as well as performance and distraction. Losing the elephant is another, the ritual of summoning is another thing. Attractive psychic Sophie is the new target of our elaborate and stubborn staff. Our hero, the cranky and restless Stanley, is the only one who knows everything, except he loves to love.
A sarcastic, arrogant, perfectionist man, when a love story appears before him, he is caught vulnerable and fumbles. Cute, ridiculous and pathetic now, you have even taken my self, at least enough to say don’t take my heart. If there is such a thing as magic for a man, it is to be fascinated by a woman, and then it is hidden in our film. The country has been a prisoner of a reality that bothers and burns us for many days and creates so much pain and numbness. That’s why he has to go to the Magic Moon Light, a piece of enchantment, to distract our minds, to forget everyday life for a while, to put a smile on our faces.
