Music sucked; movies sucked etc. etc. Then I saw Manhattan. Woody Allen showed me a world I never knew existed and for that I will forever be grateful.

It's more like he's surprised by her insight which makes him slightly happy I think, and he realized he can't control her and that chances are they won't end up together, because she's already seeing him for what he really is, which brings on sadness and heartbreak. There's also the irony of the whole reversal of their situations, and he's feeling the same level of heartbreak that she felt. The look is happiness, sadness, and love all rolled into one.

Looking at this purely from an acting perspective, this has to be Woody Allen's best performance in a scene. The level of nuance and feeling he is able to display, with total naturalism and authenticity (as well as having to do it in a extremely tight close-up) is wonderful.

I love Woody Allen. No one can blend deep, questioning search-for-meaning with comedy like he can. He was and still is a genius. This scene opens beautifully with an instrumental version of "But Not For Me" and he takes his time waiting while Mariel discovers him. You can't blame him for loving her. His character is complex and human. It's true, after she says "You've got to have a little faith..." the strings/violins from "Rhapsody in Blue" come in perfectly and we see those looks on his face that means nothing and everything. When her beautiful hair falls into her face and he pushes it back and it falls again. This is a classic Woody Allen scene and it's about 1% comedy. He says "Hi", she says "Hi" in that unbelievable way and he...COUGHS! Thank God for Woody Allen. He's a treasure. I wish I had his work ethic.

woody's best film

I first saw this in 1984 when I was 18, and I'll admit having a mix of reactions. Undeniably a masterpiece; as a love letter to New York, as a study in personal relationships, the level of visual and musical craft, and the dialogue oh god is sublime. On the other hand, I had a visceral reaction to the lumpy divorced guy in his 40s chasing a dreamy high school student. I had to put that aside, thinking that maybe I wasn't worldly enough to understand, or maybe it's a sophisticated New York thing. Maybe all the girls in Manhattan are 10 years more mature than the high schoolers I knew. Well now I'm older and have lived in New York for 27 years. And young me was right. "You really hurt me." "Well it was not on purpose." *barf*

Some folk still don't seem to get this. So here it is: The young girl (here) loved the guy. But he left this girl for a woman of his own age. When that other relationship falls apart, he realises that in the girl he had 'true' love; her feelings were real, authentic, genuine, unspoiled. And he had (foolishly) pushed her away. Realising what he has lost, he goes after her... which is this scene here. The last scene from the film. But now comes the deeper realisation: she is going away, and she *is* going to change. Just like everyone else does. She will go away for six months, and by the time she comes back, she'll be "just like everyone else". Why? Because EVERYBODY DOES get corrupted. That is the point of this scene. And that is why Allen has that expression at the end. It's over. He's lost her. She, too, will get corrupted. Because we all do. It is the tragic nature of us all. 🙂

Fantastic scene but he has an arrogant attitude. He does not even want to apologize with a clear voice.

I'm going to be a little cynical right now, but this, this is fucked up. This right here is a forty year old fucking man stumbling, whining, and crying to a child who is actually responding and acting way more mature than he'll probably ever manage to be. He's having someone twenty years his junior reassure him about life. I don't really care about the acting or the story. Ultimately, this is the story of a middle-aged who has stagnated and has never grown-up. Hell, I don't even think he really loves her. He loves an idea maybe. The idea of a forever young, beautiful, feminine thing that will always inspire, fulfill, and sustain him. But that's not any real person. A real person is so much messier and so much more than that and in my opinion all the more beautiful because of that. Anyway, he would have stopped "loving" her eventually when she failed to live up to an ideal and she would have grown tired of him. Someone who never gives, but only takes. Someone who's not really looking at you, but at something else. This isn't love and this isn't beautiful. Ultimately, it's just sad, frustrating, and grotesque.
