A Midsummer Night's Sex Comedy

Buy This Item A Midsummer Night's Sex Comedy by MGM (Video & DVD)  Available from Amazon  $12.99  on 11-17-2008     Teeming with all "the beauty of an impressionist painting" (The New York Times), A Midsummer Night's Sex Comedy is writer/director Woody Allen's "lightest and most sensual film" (L.A. Weekly) to date. Starring Allen, Mia Farrow (directed by Allen for the first time), Jose Ferrer, Julie Hagerty, Tony Roberts and Mary Steenburgen, A Midsummer Night's Sex Comedy is a dazzling, uproarious masterpiece from "America's best comic filmmaker" (The Film Journal)! Love is in the air and magic is afoot when turn-of-the-century inventor Andrew and his wife Adrian host a country wedding for the pompous philosopher Dr. Leopold and his young fiancÃ(c)e Ariel. But when Andrew's best friend, the randy Dr. Maxwell Jordan, and his lusty nurse Dulcy turn up for the festivities, the stage is soon set for thwarted seductions, mismatched mates and magical mayhem, as Maxwell falls for Ariel, Ariel seduces Andrew, Leopold beds Dulcyand the bride and groom say "I do"to everyone except each other! Reader Reviews Extremely beautiful scenery. Amusing character parodies. Witty lines. Interesting actors. Based, more or less equally, on Shakespeare and Bergman. Several viewers don't seem to recognize the Bergman influence, which is at least 50% of this movie. Captures the enchantment which can occur, very occasionally, in youth, especially, when nature, sun and moon combine to create a sense that there is more, after all, to existence, than the daily grind. I feel guilty that I found my attention wandering every so often. I gave it an extra star when I wasn't thinking.
