艾薩克是名年逾四十、神經兮兮的電視台編劇,前妻離婚後愛上女人,更出書踢爆兩人婚姻內幕,讓他困擾不已。他與青春正盛的少女熱戀,卻又不可自拔地愛上好友的情婦,這段剪不斷理還亂的多角關係,卻在伍迪・艾倫的輕盈筆觸下,升華成一封獻給紐約的雋永情書。

 

伍迪・艾倫是楊德昌最鍾愛的導演之一,《獨立時代》便深受其連珠炮的喜劇風格影響。兩人作品不僅共享鮮明的都會氣質、知識份子憂慮,深諳世故之餘,更探究人心的幽深曲折。

 

Middle-aged TV writer Isaac Davis despises his job and struggles to find meaning in his life in Manhattan. He falls in love with a teenage girl, deals with his ex-wife's upcoming book about their failed marriage, and becomes enamored with his friend's mistress. Woody Allen masterfully turns these intricate relationships into a timeless ode to New York.

 

Woody Allen holds a special place among Edward Yang's most beloved directors, and his comedy style greatly influenced the film A Confucian Confusion. Both filmmakers capture a vivid urban atmosphere and delve into the anxieties of intellectuals. They skillfully navigate the intricate and the mysterious of human nature while maintaining a keen understanding of the world.
