Anything Else (2003)

£0.00


Country: US
Technical: Technicolor/2.35:1 108m
Director: Woody Allen
Cast: Woody Allen, Jason Biggs, Stockard Channing, Danny DeVito, Christina Ricci

Synopsis:

A comedy writer in New York has as his mentor a college professor and gag writer manqué, who advises him on life, women, and his choice of shrink and agent.

Review:

Moderately diverting retread of old ground, with a young but otherwise unimpressive lead taking the Woody role and just not believable as a writer of gags. Nearly all the other characters are irritating (the script demands it) save for a taciturn shrink (in an overworked joke). Woody himself takes a most untypical part as a sportscar-driving survivalist with a firearm fixation, though he is at least paranoid. Widescreen makes for some uncramped interior shots but is elsewhere redundant since most of the scenes are between two people.
