Movie Title:
Cafe Society
- “Live every day like it’s your last and someday you’ll be right.” – Evelyn’s mom
- “I guess some feelings never die. Is that good or bad?” – Bobby Dorfman
- Regret, longing, love.
- The talented cast includes Steve Carell, Jesse Eisenberg, Kristen Stewart, and Blake Lively, and Rad Taylor.
- The end will leave you thinking about the love that got away in your own life.
- You get to see beautiful homes, theaters, clubs, and even famous celebrity homes.
- This is the third time that Jesse Eisenberg and Kristen Stewart have worked together in a film. Their chemistry is evident and they both deliver spot-on performances. I love Jesse Eisenberg in everything he does. Turns out, he’s perfect for Woody Allen material too.
- The stylized music in the very beginning does a great job of setting the tone and enveloping you in the time period throughout the entire movie.
- It pokes fun at the superficiality of society life, but it sure makes being rich look fun. (wink)
- A lot of movie critics say this movie is “charming.” I’m sorry, but I do NOT find adultery charming.
- It’s very “Woody Allen.” If you like his style, you’ll enjoy the movie. If not, it’s more of the same.
Interesting lines:
- “Unrequited love kills more people in a year than tuberculosis.” – New York writer
- “Dreams are dreams.” – Vonnie (Kristen Stewart)
- “First a murderer, then a Christian. What did I do to deserve this?” – Evelyn
- “Too bad Jews don’t believe in an afterlife. They’d get a lot more customers.” – Evelyn
- “Socrates said, ‘The unexamined life is not worth living’, but the examined one is no bargain.” – Leonard (Stephen Kunken)
- Children will be completely bored. It really is a movie meant for adults.
- There is an awkward conversation with a prostitute.
- Some mobsters knock off a bunch of people.
