Allen's 90s

I was reading over my "Melinda and Melinda" post and saw the need for an addendum.

Celebrity was also pretty bad, except for the absurdity of the Branagh performance. So, the beginning of the end proper. Manhattan Murder Mystery was mediocre. Everyone Says I Love You, inane overall, but with some saving moments: namely, the whole saga of Joe wooing Von, especially with the Tintoretto name-dropping - comedy gold! definitely makes it all worth it - and the general idea of the musical is entertaining as well.

Some unexpected gems: Sweet and Lowdown, Bullets Over Broadway. These start off slow, but if you stick it through, you'll find absolute dynamite.
