Melinda and Melinda combines romantic comedy and drama in a way that
Woody Allen, unique among filmmakers, likes to contrast. It takes place
in Manhattan and chronicles a pair of crises that give great reign to
the funny and serious talents of Chiwetel Ejiofor, Will Ferrell, Jonny
Lee Miller, Radha Mitchell, Amanda Peet, Chloë Sevigny and Wallace
Shawn. All the usual Allen areas are explained - the fragility of love,
marital infidelity, sophisticated romance, the inability to
communicate. As a character in the movie puts it, "He's despondent,
he's desperate, he's suicidal. All the comic elements are in place."
