Woody Allen has the most innate ability to bring the peculiarities of death, of outraged calculated murder and righteous despair to any party and then show them to be the most perfect illusions and delusions of the mind. It is a rare quality to showcase an individual and their complete neurosis and give them hope and macabre playfulness.
