Midnight in Paris (2011)

Midnight in Paris (2011) -- W. Allen

I've only slowly returned to Woody Allen, after so many seemingly inconsequential films in a row. But I'm glad I did. Perhaps Midnight in Paris caught me in the right mood, in need of a pick-me-up and a reminder of the special role of art in this occasionally brain-bruising world. I was willing to take the trip to Paris with Owen Wilson (and even before the opening credits, I was dazzled by the montage of Parisian sights) and this film cast a magic spell over me as well as him.
