Crimes and Misdemeanors

When Judah decides to have Delores killed, he only dials seven digits on the phone calling his brother, Jack.

Judah lives in Connecticut and Jack lives in New York, so he would have to dial at least 10 digits to call him.

(at around 1h 30 mins) While they are celebrating at the wedding party the theme "Crazy Rhythm" is been played by the jazz orchestra, a muted trumpet can be heard but the trumpet player isn't using one.

On our daily full routines sometimes we overlook something here and there, regardless of consequences, just going ahead with our passions and desires, interests and achievements. But life knows how to makes us pay the price for not looking at those things more carefully.

Another Woody Allen delight, a diptych of two moral conundrums, Laudau, a well-off ophthalmologist who ultimately gets away with the murder of his badgering mistress (Huston), meanwhile a frustrated documentary filmmaker (Allen) flunks to win his love interest (Farrow) over a pretentious showbiz magnate (Alda).For Laudau's story, one can easily sniff out the comparability of Allen's later London-based MATCH POINT (2005, 7/10), the other women are merely dispensable in favor of wealth, social status and ostensibly stable matrimony.

At this point in his career, Woody Allen defined "aquired taste". He won Oscars, he made studios' "smaller" pictures look good, and he was a critic's wet dream.

Imagine if everything you were ever taught about moral, ethics and karma turns out not to be true? « You get what you give », « Good things come to good people », « Instant karma is gonna get you!

I did not just see this movie. However, an aspect of this movie has been with me for years.

Truly brilliant. This film has it all, starting with its themes from Dostoevsky and Bergman, and honestly - though I revere both of those men, it's on a par with their work.

Dear Woody Allen,Every scene of Crimes and Misdemeanors is made with so much love. You often surprised me during the indoor scenes when suddenly there would be some superb lighting in the background.

A film that is high drama and a comedy at the same time. Woody Allen is the protagonist in the comedy and it is amusing and well acted by Allen, Mia Farrow and especially Alan Alda as a pompous celebrity.
