Review of The Longest Week (2014) by Richard S — 25 Jun 2015
I agree that it's sad to see such a stellar cast produce less than stellar results, but I had another take on it. In short, it was a perfect Woody Allen Movie from his first phase. I was so surprised that there was no mention of Mr.
Allen in anything connected with the film, considering that the direct6ion, the production values, the setting choices and the camera work were so derivative of Woody Allen's early work. I was sure it was supposed to be an homage.
Unless the humor is very dark and self-deprecating, stories of the well-heeled deeply suffering from ennui and self-absorption can become too self-indulgent for most viewers, but in the light of the WA comparison, I could enjoy the film a little.
