Anyway, I had never really watched any Allen films before that. There was the time I saw most of his Midsummer… movie with a guy I had gone on a few dates with but so much of it went over my head. So part of my enjoyment was that this time I was really able to soak up the story, the dry humour, the characters; mostly because, well, I have acquired at least some knowledge and maturity. Of course this is six years experience and everyone grows a lot in that time so it’s no big revelation but when you try something new that makes you realize that growth it feels really powerful.
Since then, I have been renting many more from the large selection at the Videomatica a few blocks away from my place and this Christmas it occured to me that if I will have one movie collection in my life (which I currently do not because I was never inspired to watch a movie over and over again), it will be a Woody Allen collection. To keep track of the movies I have watched and the ones that I own, I have made this list.
