About this movie

Woody Allen, one of the most respected filmmakers on the international film landscape for over three decades, explores some of his most beloved terrain in Melinda and Melinda. The twist is introduced in the film's opening scene, in which four sophisticated New Yorkers enjoy a dinner out on a rainy night. An anecdote provokes a discussion between writers Max (Larry Pine) and Sy (Wallace Shawn) about the dual nature of human drama, symbolized by the comedy/tragedy mask of theater. Ultimately a comic tale unfolds, pitted against a more dramatic version of itself—both centered around a somewhat enigmatic woman named Melinda (Radha Mitchell).

An amazing examination of the art of storytelling and a unique pair of perspectives trying not to be drowned out in a world of reboots and remakes. A fun and refreshing tale of joy and woe, love and heartbreak, redemption and defeat. Very enjoyable. A must watch.

The same love story interpreted in two ways by a comic and a dramatist. Ultimately it is to the viewer to determine which is a better story...
