This comic drama tackles modern questions of morality as a brilliant ensemble cast portrays the familiar world of Allen’s rich and troubled upper-class New York intelligentsia. A prominent ophthalmologist (Landau) resorts to underworld solutions to deal with a troublesome mistress, while a committed documentary filmmaker (Allen) wrestles with the moral dimensions of the medium in a satirical subplot. Allen restages an almost scene-by-scene sequence from Wild Strawberries here—oddly, one of the few Bergman masterpieces that Sven Nykvist did not photograph.
