Café Society (2016 Woody Allen & scr)

We had started to watch the Spy Who Dumped Me and after 25 minutes thought 'Is there a better use of our time?' Thus ensued this marvellous film, reviewed elsewhere.

"A life unexamined is not worth living... and a life examined is no bargain."

Our fifth visit. It's The Apartment, I only just realised.. that's a film that throws a long shadow. (No I didn't - I realised that last time.) Kristen Stewart is wonderful.


I got Libelled Lady but didn't recognise Stanwyck's Woman in Red from 1935. Cafe Society itself is a 1939 Paramount picture with Madeleine Carroll and Fred MacMurray.
