About This Item
With equal parts of Kafka and Fritz Lang, Woody Allen tells the darkly comic tale of a '20s European town being terrorized by a strangler, and how Kleinman (Allen)-a hapless local rousted into joining a vigilante posse-is turned by circumstance into the target of the mob's wrath. This expressionistic meditation on fate, S*x, love and death also stars Mia Farrow, John Malkovich, Jodie Foster, Madonna, Lily Tomlin, John Cusack, and Donald Pleasence. 85 min. BW/Rtg PG-13
