Fanny and Jean are a happy couple—both are successful professionals, they live in a nice apartment in an upscale neighbourhood in Paris, and are in love with one another as they were on day one. One day, Fanny randomly meets former schoolmate Alain, and feels attracted to him. The two meet again and grow closer. Woody Allen himself said of his film: «A romantic, passionate and violent story set in contemporary Paris. Shot throughout the city and its countryside, the film develops around a love story between two long-standing young friends that escalates into marital infidelity and ultimately crime».
Born in New York in 1935, Woody Allen is an American comedian, screenwriter, and actor, and one of the greatest contemporary filmmakers and humourists. His first screenplay dates back to 1965 (Whats New Pussycat?) while his debut as a director took place in 1969 with Take the Money and Run. Over his long career, Allen received sixteen Oscar nominations for Best Screenplay, and won three: for Annie Hall (1977), Hannah and Her Sisters (1986), and Midnight in Paris (2011). In 1995, Woody Allen was awarded the Golden Lion for Lifetime Achievement at the Venice Film Festival.
