Kim Kyung Un (김경은) English Article Reading and Writing T 78 Movie Review 10/07/2014 685 words Romantic, Enchanting, Magical Movie, “Midnight in Paris” I rarely go to the movie theatres to see a movie twice in one week. A movie has to be extremely good for me to pay seventeen dollars to see it multiple times. Woody Allen’s “Midnight in Paris” is one of those films that I truly enjoyed watching. Those of you who have seen Woody Allen’s movies before, such as “Manhattan”, “Annie Hall”, and “Vicky Cristina Barcelona,” should be familiar with his classic style which involves a lot of drama, romance and quirky comedies. “Midnight in Paris” has everything that you love in a Woody Allen film, but what I like about this particular film is that he breaks the typical storyline and brings in a time traveling fantasy plot, historical art and literary figures which makes the story more exciting in a new level. I personally love this film because it is filled with gorgeous sceneries, well written plot, outstanding performance of casts, and a beautiful message.

It takes you around the famous Eiffel Tower, the Seine River, and romantic …show more content…

It helps you realize the importance of living in the present. If you ever felt like you wanted to run away from the present, I strongly recommend you to watch this film, because you will get to self-reflect through the protagonist of the movie. I want to emphasize for those of you who have not seen this film yet, that you should not immediately assume the movie will be boring after watching the trailers of the movie. The trailer was poorly made, however the movie will completely blow your mind. It is genuinely worth watching. Before you know it, you might also find yourself humming the theme song and watching it again multiple

    Additionally, I would recommend this movie to anyone who loves classic movies, because this classic french drama film was the first time a director had ever done this type (especially with the zooming in on the face). Furthermore, for people who say they had old movies and reading subtitles I would tell them to give this one a go, it might change their minds about these types of movies, and inspire them to watch more classic wonders such as this

    Moreover, it is a palatable film. It offers a few solid laughs and will provoke some smiles; it’s a fairly typical, unremarkable comedy. While the original film had the breaking of racial stereotypes in mind, this updated version has it more in mind to have fun with them for the sake of the comedy. It is a romantic comedy that touches upon race relations following a fairly well established story-line. I would say that the one redeeming value of the film is the message of "seeing people, not color."

    The film had stunning scenery and beautiful interior designs of the palace in which Antoinette lived. Coppola used over the top props and furniture’s to show the life of glitz and glamour that Marie Antoinette lived in. The production crew was given unprecedented access to the Palace of Versailles which is where it takes place. This also gave the film authenticity and realism, making it easier for the audience to get a better look into the life of Marie Antoinette and the courtiers of that time. The director used many pastels, bright pinks and blues in its backgrounds in the beginning of the film to show Antoinette’s innocence but as it progressed the colors went darker to show a sign of maturity. Even though the film is set in Versailles, some scenes were taken in various locations around France. This kept the au...

    ...movie that I fell in love with. But most of all I love how the story line is a great overlap into the cinematically engaging movie. There is a great use of camera, timing, shots and story line that are portrayed in this movie without being too overwhelming. This allows the audience to relax during the movie and just take in the scenes as a story from reality. To this day, and even still doing this paper I still come to find different aspects of the movie that I missed the previous times I have watched it.
