The film is precisely and assuredly filmed and its Nicolas Hoult’s to lead. The cast delivers beautifully and it has an wnding that set the theatre abuzz-

neutral · AI labelView post →After viewing the first cut of Crimes and Misdemeanors, Woody Allen chose to get rid of the first act and call back actors for reshoots. Daryl Hannah’s role was reduced to a brief cameo & Sean Young’s scenes were all cut from the final film.
neutral · AI labelView post →If you asked me twenty years ago,"what was your favorite movie"? I'd have said tied between "Crimes and Misdemeanors" and "Planes, Trains, and Automobiles". That covered the human condition. Today i'd add "The Martian" and "Midnight Run..." First movie luvs? Cross ponds.

Made me want to immediately rewatch the film www.projectionboothpodcast.com/2024/12/epis...

She was nominated for The Grifters (1990). Other films include Crimes and Misdemeanors (1989) and Manhattan Murder Mystery (1993). More: alt text.

I like movies, but I resent being farmed for engagement. In this case, the AI has misidentified Anjelica Huston in Crimes and Misdemeanors (see alt text)...
neutral · AI labelView post →I've told this story before but we saw this on its first release early in '86 and I loved it to death from that moment. The 3 movie run made up by this, Radio Days and Crimes and Misdemeanors are a wonderful second peak in his career.
neutral · AI labelView post →I’d tend to agree. It’s a pleasant film, well acted, but either Crimes And Misdemeanors or Do The Right Thing crush it
neutral · AI labelView post →Oddly, his best film (imho) is the very superior “Crimes and Misdemeanors”. He allows his actors to let loose in that one- well written. Does crime pay? Does it? But how ironic given the title- there must have been a wee smidge of internal conflict involved, 1989.
positive · AI labelView post →Lynch could've done a great film as well of "Crimes and Misdemeanors" and "The Purple Rose of Cairo".
neutral · AI labelView post →I think I like Interiors slightly more, but we are really talking about degrees of brilliance when it comes to these films. And Crimes and Misdemeanors is incredible - probably my second favourite Allen film, after Purple Rose of Cairo.
positive · AI labelView post →There’s a quote by the psychoanalyst character in the film Crimes and Misdemeanors that says something like we seek to re-find parental figures in partners and we also expect them to heal the emotional wounds those same parental figures caused. It’s an impossible dilemma.
neutral · AI labelView post →I think in the movie it was Red River, but maybe it was Woody’s Crimes And Misdemeanors instead
neutral · AI labelView post →Check out Woody Allen's film Crimes and Misdemeanors About a wealthy man that kills a mistress and gets away with it. I was disturbed when I saw it first and it sticks with me. Is it a confession?
positive · AI labelView post →1. Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure for the second time, in a theater so packed, my friend Lamont and I had to sit in the aisle. 2. Alien: Wiedergeburt in Austria. Only movie I’ve ever been tempted to walk out of. 3. Crimes and Misdemeanors on the big screen at the Harvard Film Archive.
neutral · AI labelView post →Thank you! I must admit, I never watched the movie. The only ones I watched were "Curse of the Jade Scorpion," "Crimes and Misdemeanors," "Mighty Aphrodite,""Take the Money and Run," and "Alice." None was my cup of tea ,and that was without all the scandal lol
negative · AI labelView post →Crimes and Misdemeanors was on my all time top 10 list. Haven’t watched it in years and will never watch an Allen movie ever again.
positive · AI labelView post →neither here nor there but IMO he in the US remake of my father the hero : woody allen in Crimes and Misdemeanors (though the latter is admittedly a whole other kind of thing besides being a vastly superior film, a real dark and cursed masterpiece frankly) www.youtube.com/watch?v=pqge...
neutral · AI labelView post →1: “You Will Meet A Tall DARK Stranger." A 2010 Woody Allen movie, set in London with a big cast; a kind of cut-and-paste of some elements of his earlier films (“Hannah and Her Sisters” and “Crimes and Misdemeanors” were the ones it reminded me of) but much limper than them IMHO.

negative · AI labelView post →There were "Donald Trump is a scumbag" jokes back in the 1980s. "The Golden Girls" and 1989 movie "Crimes and Misdemeanors" have them. Still, people today, not just people like this dude but pundits/journalists, who keep talking about a new serious/somber/changed Trump.
neutral · AI labelView post →that's why i think that essay about him dating a teenager is such interesting context for his work. it's like how woody allen made CRIMES AND MISDEMEANORS which is a movie about what happens to your soul when you do something bad but you don't get in trouble
neutral · AI labelView post →I think it’s a well done movie and one of Tom Cruise’s best performances, but Crimes And Misdemeanors is a towering film that easily surpasses it
positive · AI labelView post →Check out the Woody Allen film Crimes and Misdemeanors About a wealthy man that kills his mistress and gets away with it
neutral · AI labelView post →Does everyone already agree that Crimes and Misdemeanors and Husbands and Wives are the peak of his quasi-novel movie era, which is probably the last time he mattered?
neutral · AI labelView post →I used to love Woody Allen. The last movie of his that I watched that I really liked was Crimes and Misdemeanors. I saw and disliked Shadows and Fog, but it was Husbands and Wives that killed my Woody fandom. The Juliette Lewis character being attracted to his characters was creepy.
positive · AI labelView post →Yes, Annie Hall is great. My favourite is Crimes and Misdemeanors, from the late 1980s. I love that film.
positive · AI labelView post →Incidentally, the Wim Wenders movie about Ozu and Japan also has a really special feeling.... will possibly watch that instead. And... I probably should not have omitted Hannah and Her Sisters and/ or Crimes and Misdemeanors in a list of movie favorites.
neutral · AI labelView post →Also but not limited to ... An Alan Smithee Film: Burn Hollywood Burn The Player Cecil B. Demented All That Jazz Crimes and Misdemeanors The Fall Guy Swimming with Sharks 8½ S.O.B. ... and I should probably get back to work. 😉
neutral · AI labelView post →Crimes and Misdemeanors. It’s got everything you could want in a film—great acting, great writing, great directing, comedy, drama, horror, romance, suspense—all while more or less functioning as a philosophical argument about existence and morality (that I don’t exactly agree with). Brilliant!
positive · AI labelView post →After watching a lot of Woody Allen as a young man, I turned my back on his movies after he married Farrow's daughter. Watched Annie Hall for the first time in 30 years the other night. Despite myself, I found myself laughing quite a bit. I still think Crimes and Misdemeanors is a great film. But...

neutral · AI labelView post →I once tweeted "These days I'm not one to recommend a Woody Allen movie but if you ask me which of his movies is the best I'll say it's CRIMES AND MISDEMEANORS" and my mentions were flooded by people who namesearch Woody Allen and argue with anyone besmirching his legacy.
positive · AI labelView post →I think of all Woody Allen's ensemble-style critiques of societal dysfunction, this is probably my favourite. Ostensibly, it's really about the perilous peccadilloes of "Judah" (Martin Landau) who is one of those highly respected clinicians who is married to "Miriam" (Claire Bloom) but has been having an affair with "Dolores" (Anjelica Huston) for as long as he can remember. To be fair to the man, he does love both women, but he is a downright liar promising the latter woman marriage when he…

neutral · AI labelView post →tho I watched a Woody Allen movie yesterday where Martin Landau is a Dr who pays to have his lover killed. Crimes and Misdemeanors. I didn't really like it. There were a few funny lines. Unfortunately, Woody had the funniest line in the movie. But also his first appearance is sat next to 12 y/o girl
negative · AI labelView post →Found "Crimes and Misdemeanors"(1989) his most transparent film. He decided there's no god and his conclusion was that life had no meaning, so he was free to do whatever. 1991 affair with Soon-Yi. 1992 police case re Dylan. To be clear, this is only about Allen's reasoning, not belief or religion...

Life is a series of asking the right questions. Or as Woody Allen said in his film Crimes and Misdemeanors, “life is a sum total of the choices YOU make.”
neutral · AI labelView post →There are thousands, but a few worth calling out: - Little Murders - written by the great Jules Feiffer, directed by Alan Arkin, starring Elliott Gould. Brilliant and hilarious - Blue Collar - a phenomenal, still-relevant film by Paul Schrader - Crimes and Misdemeanors - the GOAT
