Blue Jasmine (2013 Woody Allen & scr)

Where was Woody coming from when he wrote this? His depiction of the title character is absolutely relentless, not granting an ounce of compassion or understanding. This woman is a self-delusional mess. Is it Mia? Could be. The screenplay is a masterful exercise in providing additional / ironic information / comment throughout. The ending is indeed one of Mr Allen's bleakest.

Interesting yellow / black thing here
