Manhattan


I just watched Manhattan for the first time the other day and I cannot stop thinking about it. Woody Allen is such a genius writer... the script is so natural, so rye and just so fantastically "NEW YORK". I love Mariel Hemingway's role, her naive nature is so endearing and she is just so stunningly beautiful. Woody Allen's character Isaac Davis says such an adorable & romantic quote: "Why is life worth living? It's a very good question. Um... Well, There are certain things I guess that make it worthwhile. Uh... Like what... okay... um... For me, uh... ooh... I would say... what, Groucho Marx, to name one thing... uh... um... and Willie Mays... and um... the 2nd movement of the Jupiter Symphony... and um... Louis Armstrong, recording of Potato Head Blues... um... Swedish movies, naturally... Sentimental Education by Flaubert... uh... Marlon Brando, Frank Sinatra... um... those incredible Apples and Pears by Cezanne... uh... the crabs at Sam Wo's... uh... Tracy's face..." TOO CUTE and so brilliant.

Lots of love.
