Only Woody Allen could pull off a movie with a plot as goofy as it is good. In fact, this movie is perhaps best at its goofiest. As for that plot? A writer on the verge of marrying a high-maintenance rich girl time-travels back to paris in the 20s & hangs out with historical characters who are caricatures of themselves. He has this illusion that “some other time” is far more interesting than his own present. But, eventually comes to realize that every time is the past of some other future. It’s just hard to see the perspective from where we stand. So, make the most of right now! It’s a message that we can’t hear too often… and one that’s charmingly done here.
