Story: |
Melinda and Melinda combines romantic comedy and drama in a way that
Woody Allen, unique among filmmakers, likes to contrast. It takes
place in Manhattan and chronicles a pair of crises that give great
reign to the funny and serious talents of the cast. All the usual
Allen areas are explained - the fragility of love, marital infidelity,
sophisticated romance, the inability to communicate. As a character
in the movie puts it, "He's despondent, he's desperate, he's suicidal.
All the comic elements are in place."
