pallottole su broadway - blu ray BluRay Italian Import

Twenty-five years and it's still smelling of roses and grease paint. Woody's Bullets Over Broadway was, for some, his last great movie. Obviously that's nonsense but what can you do, people get funny ideas lodged in their heads.Cusack, channelling Woody's comedic persona with more success than, say, our Ken a few years later, plays a serious artist, a playwright who wants to be Chekhov. His manager finds a shady backer for the new play, a gangster who will spring for the whole show provided his girl gets a leading role. Add Allen regular Dianne Wiest and the cast of the The Sopranos (before they were famous) and plenty of Thirties period style, and presto!Seven nominations and one win (Oscar number two for Wiest), what a roll Allen was on after he swept the cobwebs out of his life. Another Oscar next year, Mira Sorvino for Mighty Aphrodite. He got so whimsical he decided to do a jukeboz musical next. But anyway, Bullets is a charming comedy about a perfectionist playwright compromising to get the play into production and then compromising further to actually make the material work. This is a film about a play in which all the players - Ullmann, Wiest, Tilly, Cusack, Broadbent, Palminteri - play off each other perfectly. One of the handful of movies that got Allen's own personal endorsement. Palmenteri was still new and Allen showed immense faith in Wiest, who at first struggled to find the character, and all the time the whole horrible tabloid business was going on in the background.Personally I think Aphrodite is more original with its bold use of a Greek chorus, and given that some of the same actors are in it perhaps these should be seen as a pair, Bullets and Aphrodite. Why not? Not a wrong note in Bullets, that's for sure, so do yourself a favour and get the dvd to watch it. No compromise necessary.

Loved this film. Perfectly constructed story-line of a young writer trying to get his play performed on Broadway and a hood re-writes most of it for him. Perfect touches of humour 'Don't speak, don't speak.' Perfect casting and acting. Woody Allen at his best. (Freak Out! My Life with Frank Zappa)

If you've ever worked in or around the Movie / TV / Music Business you will so appreciate this hysterical movie - I mean you see so much of this crazy behaviour everyday - truly wonderful - watched it loads of times - great to watch to cheer myself up as well !It's been a bit overlooked which is a real pity because it is genuinely so very good - A Very good, complete story and good acting from the entire cast - The casting is so perfect - I can prove what I am saying is true because it got 7 Oscar nominations - Diane Wiest actually winning hers. It's much more difficult to rent now - Blockbuster don't have it but Love Film do.The Blu Ray disc is not really as good a quality as they could have made it but it is definitely better than the regular standard dvd.Do try and watch it a few times because Woody Allen has really packed this movie with an awful lot of great stuff and it's easy to miss.

Quite simply one of the best Woody Allen films. John Cusack does a marvellous job of playing the usual Woody-type lead character, and the wonderful script, co-written with actor/director Doug McGrath, has an almost constant stream of memorable lines. Hard though it would be to pick out one name from the cast of top-flight actors, Dianne Wiest's stupendous, Oscar-winning performance, does in fact steal the film.

This film reflects the genius of Woody Allen. It is hysterically funny with outstanding performances by a stellar cast. A beautifully filmed period piece and an Oscar Winning performance of Dianne Weist. It is a landmark film of a tempestuous time which shows people's true characteristics.

This is a wonderful film BUT this DVD comes in a small screen format with Korean subtitles (you can get rid of them).

Great film by the man Allen starring another great, Cusack.

This is probably my favourite film by Woody Allen. Even more than usual the casting is perfect down to the tiniest character. Plus it is hilarious. Buy it, borrow it, whatever the means, watch it. Now. And last but not least, Mia Farrow doesn't play in it.
