Talk:Interiors

Why

Why was my contribution (about poor fan reception) deleted? It is entirely true, many former Woody fans hated this movie. Woody even makes fun of this poor reception in 1980's Stardust Memories. Explain yourself, Yamla! --87.244.137.1 12:11, 7 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You did not cite your sources and so it sounded suspiciously like original research. --Yamla 15:43, 8 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It's common knowledge if you know anything about Woody Allen. --81.242.210.245 20:10, 8 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

"Common knowledge" is not fact, nor is it defensible here. Unless you can cite a reliable source, it is opinion, and has no place here. Yamla was correct in removing it. 98.211.124.55 (talk) 01:22, 26 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

"Most serious"

I question the introductory statement that it is "his most serious film to date," which looks as if it had been written when the film was new. I fail to see how it is more serious than, say, "September." For the introduction, I think it is more important simply to state that it was his first attempt at serious drama, and leave any evaluation for the body of the article, rather than make a value judgment up front as to whether it is the "most" serious of all his films.

I'm buying it. After the most popular, commercial, and well received movie of his career, "Annie Hall", Woody Allen turns out his homage to Ingmar Bergman. "Interiors" deals with the tensions within a well-to-do New York family. It is a somber movie. There isn't one laugh in it. On top of all that, there are, not just one, but two very serious suicide attempts by the Geraldine Page character. I have seen many, but not all, of Allen's films and this fucker is as serious as they come. I've seen "September" --I'm thinking that the release date was 1985 for some reason. Denholm Elliot dying...-- and it is indeed serious: Allen's thinly veiled view of the Johnny Stompanato murder/killing. There is discussion of a FAILED previous suicide attempt by Mia Farrow, but we don't know if it was a "cry for help" suicide attempt or a "serious" suicide attempt as were the TWO by Page's character in "Interiors": Every chink allowing air being sealed out in a New York City apt. with duct tape before turning on the gas oven and burners on at full bore, or her just hopelessly wading out into the waters of Long Island Sound similar to the suicide of Ophelia in _Hamlet_. And Allen makes certain we see them. Yeah dude, it IS Allen's most SERIOUS movie yet.User:JCHeverly 18:11, 22 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Come to think of it, it is even more serious than the more experienced Allen's "Crimes and Misdemeanors", where he skillfully works the protagonist's mentor committing suicide near the end of the movie and also the unsympathetic, blackmailing Anjelica Huston's character being snuffed without showing either to the audience. Also, there are some very humorous scenes in "Crimes and Misdemeanors." The more I think about it, "Interiors" is the most serious movie Allen has ever done.

I was thinking more of the overall mood and tone of the film than the plot, but I see your point and think the intro is clearer now. Richard K. Carson (talk) 03:51, 9 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

No music

Is it notable that there's no music except sourced music (music comes from a record player, and only during the wedding scene)? Okayjg (talk) 06:54, 11 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
