About the film:
Owen Wilson, Marion Cotillard, Rachel McAdams, Kathy Bates, and Carla Bruni star in Woody Allen's romantic comedy about a family on a business trip in the City of Lights. As a young couple engaged to be married experiences a profound transformation during their visit to Paris, an idealistic man with a romanticized view of the city finds that there's plenty of truth to that old adage about the grass being greener on the other side.

"The magic of Paris and the mystique of an era gone-by are the stars of Midnight in Paris - Woody Allen's best film for years." -- Urban Cinephile

-- Nominated for Best Motion Picture and Winner of Best Writing Oscar at the 2011 Academy Awards, Movie of the Year Award Winner at the 2011 AFI Awards, and Best Original Screenplay Nominee at the 2011 BAFTAs.
