three directors woody allen, francais ford coppola, and martain scorsese, do short films, celebrating newyork, coppollas is a mess, scorseses okay, but very stylish, but woody allen saves the day, with his short, about a typical newyork jewish guy, and his over bearing mother, who starts to apear in the sky, running his life, very funny, showing the woody humour, so not a complete disaster, allen and scorsese showing potential with theres, just miss copplas and a good one hour viewing will be had
One again everything Sofia Coppola touches turns to shit. Tucked in between Scorsese's comment on art and Allen's delightful matriphobia comedy is Coppola's big floating turd of a short.
Chalk up a point for Scorsese with his highly (almost comically so) stylish portrait of an obsessive painter, where New York plays the second-billing. Coppola's is not worth mentioning. While Allen creates a sometimes funny comedy, but it is the concept that is my ingenious than the actual execution.
I loved Scorsese's (I wonder if I'd find it a little pretentious now?) and Allen's films, but boy was Coppola's ever tough going. Still, two outta three ain't bad (thank you Meatloaf for your words of wisdom).
The reason you want to see this is the first story with Nick Nolte. It's incredible the others are either soso or bad.
