Manhattan
26 January 2005, the wee hours
I watched Manhattan tonight with Steph. The film follows an older New Yorker, Isaac, and his relationships with women. The movie is quite funny; the story is quite engaging. The characters in the film are all interesting to watch, but are for the most part all bad people (with one notable exception). Diane Keaton’s character in particular is so annoying. I don’t know if the fact the characters are so aggravating is part of the appeal of the movie. You can decide if you watch the film yourself. The film is shot in black and white and looks great. The film’s score is classic. The movie almost makes me want to go to New York—almost but not quite.
