Vicky Cristina barcelona
Simply because my love for barcelona, I went to see the movie immediately. Barcelona is a very special place. Spanish people will dance Tango in the street. I had taken photo of such scene when I visited there few years ago.
Some said that Woody Allen loves Europe. So he filmed in Europe. I doubt very much after watching this movie. Barcelona is deceptively charming but its charm is in its incompleteness. Antoni Gaudi's church 'temple de la sargada familia' is the perfect example. I do not see Woody Allen endorsing the European 'romantic elements' (provided that he captures correctly the 'Europeanness'). The 'romantic spirit' is almost presnted as close to craziness. Obviously, overwhelming emotions can kill and lead to chaos.
When we are not confident of our choices, we seek change. People need change to know who they really are, though not necessarily include knowing what they want. We know what we don't want like vicky and cristina but we are not sure of what we really want. We choose by negation. And love is philosophical.
If you don't love Woody Allen, you will not love this film. You will be probably get annoyed by the third person narration.
Yet the sexy actor and actresses could still lure you to the cinema. Trust me.
