Last night, I saw Match Point, Woody Allen’s new thriller. If there’s anything I’ve learned from Hollywood films, it’s never, ever have an affair. Sure, it’s fun for a while, but then it all ends in tears sooner or later. And the logistics of maintaining an affair are nearly impossible. There’s always the chance that you’ll leave some incriminating evidence lying about or that one of your buddies will screw up the story about how he and you are going on a fishing trip when you’re really shacked up in some cheap motel on the interstate with that waitress from Denny’s.
And what’s up with Scarlett Johannsson’s voice? Don’t get me wrong, it’s incredibly sexy, but it sounds like she goes through a pack or two of Virginia Slims a day.
