I pretty much like Allen's films, perhaps my favorite is The Purple Rose of Cairo. While walking home we agreed that although the cast is quite devoid of Allen's usual actors, and the setting was not New York, the patina of the film felt like Allen. The jazz music and the messed-up characters fall into his genre. Cate Blanchett is fabulous as the Blanche DuBois character. (It's a long way from Rivendell to San Francisco, but she makes the transition look effortless.)
