It seems that Woody Allen had to move away from New York City to get his
mojo back. Following his flings in London and Barcelona, Allen set his
eyes on Paris in what is essentially a love letter to the city.
Midnight
in Paris Woody Allen-esque protagonist Gill (Owen Wilson) is a
Hollywood writer who longs for the Parisian jazz era. Sans the Delorean
but in true Marty McFly style, Gill ends up jumping back and forth
between the present and the past, rubbing elbows with Paris most
colourful citizens like Hemingway, Stein, Picasso and Dalí.
