Nuts to the Squirrels

Peter Bogdanovich is still pastiching other movies in what will probably prove his last feature. This time it's the garrulous romantic comedies of Woody Allen, with a non-stop jazz score and set among New York's chattering classes. The leading lady of course plays a hooker, there are rabbi jokes and it's all brought into the 21st Century with continuous steadicam photography, mobile phones and jokes about condoms. TV names like Jennifer Anniston rub shoulders with Bogdanovich veterans Cybill Shepherd, Tatum O'Neal and the always welcome Austen Pendleton.

A brilliantly written comedy that isn't for everyone but is one that is worth seeing if you are into this type of comedy.

"Blows my mind to think that just like Lana, a chance encounter changed my life." Isabella (Poots) is a call girl who aspires to be an actress. When Arnold (Wilson), a playwright, hires her for the night he gives her a present that changes her life. When Arnold starts casting his next play Isabella shows up to read, with his wife. This starts a chain reaction of events that ends up affecting the lives of everyone involved. I will start by saying that this was a pretty funny movie that really has the feel of a Woody Allen type movie. Many different characters that all have their own story while at the same time being involved with everyone else. This is not a main stream comedy but I thought it was funny. The dialog is very witty and the pacing and timing really give the movie the extra push it needs for the comedy to really come through. This is not a movie for everyone but those that like the quirky, Woody Allen-esqe type movies this is one for you. Overall, funnier than I expected. A brilliantly written comedy that isn't for everyone but is one that is worth seeing if you are into this type of comedy. I give it a B.
