“This movie shouts one word: WARMTH. The colors, the plot, the characters, they are all wonderfully warm.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIu0026#39;ve watched this movie with senior citizens who were around in the forties. I once watched it with a Jewish guy who grew up on Long Island (albeit in the early 30u0026#39;s, not the 40u0026#39;s). All comments were the same: THIS was life in New York during wartime.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eVietnam was my war, so this era was a mystery to me. However, any time a genius like Woody Allen can create a film that not only makes me and my rowdy friends laugh, but gets guffaws from my dear old Mom as well, it deserves a little fanfare.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI didnu0026#39;t even mention the solid gold music.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eSee this film at once!”
