If Manhattan hit the spot, these will too

The same hand behind both of them: Woody Allen

Both are Woody Allen's work, and they rhyme
The difference: 37 years apart, and the 2010s show

Both land wit and play at once
The difference: The scrappier of the two with critics

Contemplative where it counts, romantic underneath

Drama with a pulse of tenderness, in both cases
The difference: Trades the wit of Manhattan for an angle of its own


Both rooted in New York City

One thread runs through both: adultery
The difference: Easier on the wit than Manhattan

Witty comedy, and it commits to that

Both lean on play more than on romance

The same preoccupation in both: writer

Comedy built on stillness, twice over
