Will Ferrell Gets Serious

...or as serious as one gets in a Woody Allen movie.
I know this is last minute, but I'll try anyway- how about another Box Office movie night at City Cinema this weekend?
'Melinda and Melinda' at 9:15, Sunday, June 19th.
Since this was the review from Box Office magazine, I do have to post the first part of it here on the Box Office Blog:
"The combination of Woody Allen and Will Ferrell and the familiar Manhattan locales would be enough in itself to make Melinda and Melinda a very appealing proposition on paper. Together with an astute ensemble cast and a witty premise, Melinda and Melinda in practice makes for one of Allen's most accomplished and enjoyable films in years. The story starts in a Chinese restaurant with a group of arty types discussing the relative merits of comedy versus tragedy. Then we cut to twin narratives, each of which begins with the same incident, but which develop along different lines - one tragic, one comic."
The trailer for it looks very Allen-esque, check it out at mac.com ( Quicktime and then go into the trailers).
Leave a comment if you're going to come along!
