Underratted!!!!
Woody Allen was definitely not getting lazy when he wrote and directed Celebrity. It is probably one of his better films. The movie is filmed in a beautiful black and white, and has a wonderful script. The movie, in actuality, is very sad, and very cathardic. We live in a world, where we celebrate the actions of Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt, and this movie is satire on that, and even delves into why we celebrate them. Everyone complains about how Branagh is doing an impression of Woody, but it was his interpetation of the role, and I thought he did very well. It has all the same elements of a woody film, but he puts them together in a fresh and inoovative way like he does with a lot of his films. Woody even pokes fun at himself. Genius!
