I've always been a fan of woody Allen's directed films. This reminded me with the pace and obviously the weather of midnight in Paris. Timothee chalamet is a great actor and very beautiful too! Loved him in call me by your name. Ellie fanning is also well cast and the script is terrific and hilarious at times. It's a sweet charming movie and I was engaged throughout. Gatsby played by chalamet finds a good chance to enjoy new york with his girlfriend ashleigh who is on a project college related journal to meet a film director who's making his latest film. What could possibly go wrong?
There ensues one hiccup after another (literally with ashleigh) as the sweet couple endure disaster after disaster. The script is very witty and it really brought a smile to my face. Selena gomez surprised me too, I knew her as a singer but she is also very charming and funny in a dry ironic way. Overall a feel good film one that I'll enjoy again and again. A very satisfying happy end.

I really liked this film it had a nice pace to it and I'm a big fan of Alison steadman anyway so it's nice to see her in film. Dave John's gives a terrific performance too and plenty of good comedic lines. The dogs were fantastic. It reminded me a bit of a Mike leigh film in its pace and script. Funnily enough steadman was married to Mike leigh for 20 odd years!
It has moments of sadness and comedy combined. The scenery was nice where they walked their dogs and the houses used looked cosy. Overall an impressive film, one that I'll keep on dvd to watch again.

This was a terrific film and I was engrossed in it from the beginning. I feel it on many levels. A story of relationships and trust that have been broken. In the film although it wasn't religious I felt there was an element of gods trials. Or even a herculean test. The cinematography was beautiful the setting cold and wild but so awe inspiring. There was an underlying sense of paranoia throughout and of biting the bait or trying not too. It was discovering how a broken relationship can be mended and the trials you go through to reach that possibility. The two young boys were as terrific as the father in their roles. Since Ivan was called chicken in the early part of the film he wanted to redeem himself. He mistrusted his father and still needed to impress his brother Andrei.
There was a quiet threat from the father in the film which kept you guessing. All building to a sad haunting ending that will stay with me. I will certainly return (pun intended) to this absolute gem of a film.
