April 11, 2024 FILM: COUP DE CHANCE DIRECTED BY: WOODY ALLEN STARRING: LOU DE LAAGE, NIELS SCHNEIDER, MELVIL POUPAUD RATING: 3 ½ out of 4 stars It’s been a rough few years for us Woody Allen fans. After the commercial and Oscar successes of Midnight in Paris
Totally agree with this. I loved the film. A real throwback to Allen’s classics and why we treasure him as a filmmaker. Hope there are more films from him to come!
Thanks for this review — I had heard it was a return to form for Allen. I will definitely check it out. It has been a while since I could even make it through one of his newer films, mostly due to tone deafness and him seeming to be repeating himself and not in a good way. And this is supposedly film #50 from him which is mind blowing. 🤯
Exactly!
Always thought the Woodman had more than his fair share of Hitchcock in him! I'm all over this like white on rice.
Good on him, still making movies even though so many people hate his guts now...
Hate the man, love the artist.

It's definitely worth seeing even if it does feature some familiar themes. Very tight script!
