I´ll do. It´s not here yet. We have mostly an epic-tragedy cartelera at the moment.

the film is about the relation between tragedy and comedy in the telling of a narrative of life.

the scenario is that a group of people are sitting around a cafe table and two playwrights each tell a tale from one of the aforementioned perspectives. thus, the film combines a rather familiar story within a story structure, but from a dual perspective. anyway, if you dig Woody Allen, this is not to be missed. some interesting subtle critique or parody of formulaic drama and romantic comedies, and of course some great scenes and lines. dialogue as always is key to a Woody Allen film. and don't miss Will Ferrel playing the character most like the director, a fine job, almost surprisingly.

the film is in the city now. I saw it today. Nice idea but it didn´t make me laugh like others.
