Stardust Memories
Sandy Bates is a comic filmmaker who no longer feels funny. When he ventures into serious cinema for a new challenge, he is not well received by the critics or the public, and he becomes depressed. Spending a weekend at Stardust Hotel during a retrospective showing of his films, Sandy reflects upon his life, art and relationships with three contrastingly different women: the beautiful but neurotic Dorrie, sensitive and talented violinist Daisy, and earthy mature Isobel.

A plainly autobiographical work which, while amusing and moving in spots, makes it doubtful that the writer/director/star can even now shake off his obsessions.

Interesting intraspection
The script copies reality as Woody Allen plays a writer who wants to change from comedy to serious work.
However the film is focused on his ... read more » - 170694

Dithering Director's Dilemmas!
Some say this is one of Woody Allen's best films, which would be a matter of personal taste.

STICK WITH THE EARLY FUNNY ONES
Allen comes a cropper in this attempt to reconcile his bleak view of the world with his comic genius. Despite the excellent photography and good supporting ... read more »

Better than Expected
Reading the other reviews, I thought I has picked a lemon - but I enjoyed it. Plently of little subltle jokes that perhaps only fans of Allen and his type of ... read more »

Synecdoche, New York
- 11 May 2009
Well, you can’t accuse Charlie Kaufman of dumbing down for his directorial debut. The cult screenwriter has created a string of singular, post-modern philosophical comedies for Spike Jonze (Being John Malkovich; Adaptation), George Clooney (Confessions of a Dangerous Mind) and Michel Gondry (Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind), but he’s out-done himself here. Synecdoche (horribly pretentious title) was originally written for Jonze to direct, but he bailed when Where the Wild... Read more
