Between his stints in Europe, writer and director Woody Allen returned to New York for this comedy to let us know what's on his mind. Allen is one of few writers who gets to channel his thoughts to his audience directly on the screen. In this comedy David channels Allen as an obnoxious and of course neurotic old man who falls for a young girl who could be his grand daughter that causes her narrow minded parents to find their true selves in New York. This is vintage Allen and he doesn't shy away for laying his cards on the table as far as where he's standing on different issues. Not his best work by any means but fulfill his annual quota of a making a film. YRCinema's coverage of films on DVD.
