I want my Woody back

Ο Woody Allen είναι από τους αγαπημένους μου σκηνοθέτης, να μην πω ο αγαπημένος μου. Τις προάλλες ξαναείδα το "Love and Death", παρωδία του μυθιστορήματος "Πόλεμος και Ειρήνη". Έχει απίστευτη πλάκα αυτή η ταινία, σε μερικά σημεία τραβάει λίγο, αλλά δεν πειράζει... Τα αστεία δεν είναι μόνο έξυπνα, είναι σουρεαλιστικά, θυμίζουν λίγο αδελφούς Μαρξ.
Τελος πάντων, γιατί να μιλάω εγώ, αφού ο Woody τα λέει τόσο ωραία; Κάποιες από τις αγαπημένες μου ατάκες:

Countess Alexandrovna: My bedroom at midnight?
Boris: Perfect. Will you be there too?

Countess Alexandrovna: Would you like some wine? Something to put you in the mood?
Boris: I've been in the mood since the late 1700's.

Countess Alexandrovna: You are the greatest lover I've ever had.
Boris: Well, I practice a lot when I'm alone.

Drill Sergeant: One, two, one, two, one, two.
Boris: Three is next, if you're having any trouble.

Sonja: There are many different kinds of love, Boris. There's love between a man and a woman; between a mother and son...
Boris: Two women. Let's not forget my favorite.

Boris: Nothingness... non-existence... black emptiness...
Sonja: What did you say?
Boris: Oh, I was just planning my future.

Το καλύτερο:
Sonja: Oh don't, Boris, please. Sex without love is an empty experience.
Boris: Yes, but as empty experiences go, it's one of the best.

Και ο μονόλογος στο τέλος:
Boris: The question is have I learned anything about life. Only that human beings are divided into mind and body. The mind embraces all the nobler aspirations, like poetry and philosophy, but the body has all the fun. The important thing, I think, is not to be bitter... if it turns out that there IS a God, I don't think that he's evil. I think that the worst you can say about him is that basically he's an underachiever. After all, there are worse things in life than death. If you've ever spent an evening with an insurance salesman, you know what I'm talking about. The key is, to not think of death as an end, but as more of a very effective way to cut down on your expenses. Regarding love, heh, what can you say? It's not the quantity of your sexual relations that counts. It's the quality. On the other hand if the quantity drops below once every eight months, I would definitely look into. Well, that's about it for me folks. Goodbye

Έξοχος ο Γούντυ.
Αυτό που με έχει χαλάσει είναι ότι λες και έχει κάνει τάμα να γυρίζει κάθε χρόνο ταινία. Το αποτέλεσμα είναι να έχει βγάλει πατάτες που απλώς υποφέρονται εξαιτίας ενος -δυο καλών ατάκων,
Τις τελευταίες 2-3 δεν τις έχω δει καν.

Πράγματι έχει κάνει πολλές μετριότητες.
Πάντως το τελευταίο, το Matchpoint, να το το δεις, ήταν πολύ καλό. Αντικειμενικά πάντα!
