One of my favorites from 2011. The Woody Allen romantic comedy, without Woody, is also an imaginative fantasy about our desires to live in a different time or place. Owen Wilson dreams of the romance of Paris of the 1920s, while his fiancé, Rachel Adams, wants him to get on with his successful career as a screenwriter. Romantic, wistful, and very funny. Midnight in Paris had the honor of opening the 2011 Cannes Film Festival.
