Waste of superb cinematography and choice cast.
Woody Allen re-explores the past again, this time 1930s Hollywood and Gotham.
Young man tries and fails to make his mark in Tinsel Town - career and romance.
Parallel story of his mobster brother building a more lucrative, if dubiously successful, criminal path.
There was an excellent film in here, I’m convinced, but this ended up muddled.
The two storylines do not connect well, and there is no character development.
Final half of film ran out of steam.
OK Allen film. Not his best, not his worst. Disappointing for me.
