Alice

The Ndlovu’s UncutNov 16, 2022

Not one of Woody Allen's best films, "Alice" is nonetheless far better than what he's been turning out lately. The structure seems too random and unfocused, but it's still full of Allen's wise observations and commentary on human nature and modern-day life the qualities that make Woody Allen movies so special. The biggest fault I find with this film is Mia Farrow. Her run of films with Woody Allen are among his best, and her contributions are immense. Here she just seems unconvincing as a wealthy upper-Eastsider. Yes, we meet her character while she's questioning her life, but somehow the hat, the hair, the shoes just aren't sophisticated enough for a woman who's been living that lifestyle. She lacks the hardboiled edge of a seasoned New Yorker. Because she's too soft right from the beginning, her transformation falls short. The film is helped by all the star cameos, and even though they're brief, the characters are well-defined. "Alice" is definitely worth a look.

Alice doesn't so much go through the looking glass or down a rabbit-hole as get strung out on Dr. Yang's herbs. She also has more money than she knows what to do with and Dr Yang's herbs are the conduit into a whole new world of impulsive and uncharacteristic behavior not to mention invisibility and the ability to fly like Supergirl. Despite its sterling cast this is minor, low-key Allen, designed as a vehicle for Farrow and she's excellent. The movie itself falls between 'the early funny ones' and the somewhat more serious later films. It's a doodle at best but even a doodle from Mr Allen isn't to be sniffed at.

Only Woody Allen can direct such a great film with fantastic actors from the 1940's to the present day STARS! Mia Farrow,(Alice),"Angela Mooney",'96, was a mixed up Catholic gal who was struggling with herself and also her husband, William Hurt,(Doug),"The Blue Butterfly",'04, who is very rich and spoiled his wife in every way possible except in BED! Alice visits a Dr. Yang,(Keye Luke),"The Falcon's Brother",'42, who gives her all kinds of herbs which helps her find herself and at the same time Alice has some hot romance with Joe Mantegna on the way to becoming a normal, happy Gal. It was great seeing a former great veteran actor,Keye Luke, who use to play #1 Son to Charlie Chan back in the 40's and many other actors who appear in the picture from out of nowhere! If you love Woody films, this is one of his greatest!!

Mia Farrow excels in this unexpectedly charming fable. I think if people happened upon this movie not knowing it was a Woody Allen film, they would be more than pleased with it. Knowing it is Woody, maybe many fans hold it to a higher standard. True, it's not anywhere near being his funniest or greatest film. But I think it is a well-cast, well-shot, well-produced, and even well-written tale. Knowing it's history, I was not expecting to like it nearly as much as I did. But I did, and I look forward to seeing it again. Mia really is underrated as an actress, isn't she?

This was the first Woody Allen film I got to see in the theaters and -- since it has such strong fantasy elements -- it was truly a magical experience. Compared to a film like "Crimes and Misdemeanors" it's a bit of a lightweight, but taken on its own terms "Alice" is an enjoyable portrait of a woman trying to find herself and her spiritual center. And there are plenty of funny moments along the way, which I wouldn't dare spoil for you. All I'll say is watch for Bob Balaban (the dead guy in "Deconstructing Harry") in the party scene late in the film. This film also marked the first time Allen worked with the amazing Judy Davis, who would make more of an impression in "Husbands and Wives" two years later.

This is one of those scatter gun films that kept me attending throughout. Of course, it is part of the Woody Allen canon. Mia is rich and has it all, all except a feeling of purpose and happiness. She shops, eats, lives in luxury, and, ultimately, admires more than anything, Mother Teresa. But now we move into the supernatural element, where Keye Luke (number one son) is able to provide her with magical potions, allowing her to observe the lives of those she wishes. It isn't a good thing for her. The man she truly loves and finally gets together with is conflicted and can't make the move forward. Her husband is a total jerk, using her as a prop. I was so pleased with the way this film ended.
