Celebrity (1998 Woody Allen & scr)

We only watched it in June?? It's awfully good. There's a scene where Leo kicks off in a hotel room that is fabulous for watching the acting of both he and Kenneth Branagh. Long takes in this - and the following scene with the cops - give it authenticity and involvement.

Sven Nykvist has shot the film in a seriously contrasty inky-black way.

Judy Davis is perhaps the stand-out as a woman who just can't believe her own luck. Charlize Theron looks eerily like Scarlett Johanssen.
