1989: Crimes and Misdemeanours

It's about an unsuccessful documentary filmmaker shooting a film about his successful filmmaker brother-in-law and a doctor whose lover won't let him go, but what it really is is another Woody Allen picture. I haven't seen all of them, but compared to most I know, this one suffers from poor cinematography (1989!) and a general disregard for the visual side of things. (6.5) That's regrettable from the man who gave us Manhattan, and I'm not just saying that because that one's in black and white.
