It was a great movie. If you grew up in Rockaway long ago, it was particularly special. I love his choice of sets especially. The only word that captures the rain swept scene and his narration is" perfect." The walk in front of the old Playland sign,( it's gone now) but every kid has a memory of how it looked that the scene captures. They have a memory of a day at Playland. One of the lesser known for some was the old Rockaway Point Pier. He is playing with kids underneath. Some of my best days of childhood were there. ( Now I know Woody also). My dad, closer to Woody's age, fished for snapper /bluefish on that very pier as a child himself. One of my dad's fishing companions as a child, was Mickey Spillane, who mixed in with the snapper enthusiasts back then.( And counts his own time there as special). It is my understanding that his books utilized images drawn from the surrounding vistas that originate from the point of view of that pier. ( If I recall the Marine Park Bridge was one). The tip of Breezy, a perfect location to make out and an unfortunate one to confront an invasion from Mars from. Radio City would bring in a larger group of kids I imagine. A first trip. "If You Are But a Dream," perfect. Sinatra's voice still at it's very best. The movie was like a love letter to the time and place where he experienced his Radio Days.

Just when everything looks like just another Woody Allen movie, Julie Kavner shows up on screen. Suddenly the scene shifts into another gear. The licking that the boy endures is pure genius. A complete and sustained surprise. Kenneth Mars is superb as the rabbi.

The boy got off easy. Basically what he did was the equivalent of stealing money from a collection plate at a chruch to buy a toy. I mean the story takes place in the 1940s. Back then your parents didn't play games. They would really spank you back then. They just hit the boy in this scene. They did not really punish him the way he really would have gotten punished back then for doing something terrible like this. As far as I am concerned, he got off pretty easy.

Hard to believe he's the same guy who played a deranged Nazi playwright in "The Producers" and performed the voice of King Triton in "The Little Mermaid", eh?

Actually, if someone showed a preservative when I was at school, I wouldn´t know what that was. And that was in the 80´s.
