Medianoche en París - Comentarios

Light, assured, and utterly charming: Woody Allen’s sublime gifts are still intact.

This may not be a return to the glory days, but it's a vivid reminder of them. That's almost as good.

'Midnight in Paris' er et elegant overflødighedshorn af de mest forførende filmiske virkemidler...

Quite simply, Midnight in Paris is charming – très charmant, to ape the argot of the locals. I say that somewhat tongue-in-cheek, as this is very much an outsider's valentine to the City of Lights.

A few actors—particularly Alison Pill as Zelda Fitzgerald and Kathy Bates as Gertrude Stein—get under their famous characters’ skins, but Allen is mostly content to work in broad strokes in recreating one of Paris’ most-storied periods.

...en raktigenom välskriven, kul, charmig och kärleksfull hyllning till gamla konst- och litteraturhjältar liksom romantiken själv och det ljuvliga Paris.

Woody Allen har blivit gammal och verkar ha blivit soft. Det finns en enormt tillåtande stämning i den här filmen som bäst beskrivs som motsatsen till vad som kommer från Göteborgs filmskola idag. Han drar in magi.
