Last time I went to Paris I sat on some stairs to rest from so much walking and took a picture sitting there. My girlfriend later noticed that it was the stairs where Gil would be picked up at midnight. This happened after I had seen the film and I had not realized that it was the exact same spot. That was really cool !!!!
I featured those stairs in my video on YT, : Wonderful backstreets of Paris : This is a film I've watched many times. I loved Adreana. Gil also was perfectly cast. Tony Talking The Talk
@@tonymaiorano2749 I have watched the film countless times and always learn something new or detail from it. The cast was great and the interplay amazing. One of my all time favorite films.
Thanks for this. This is probably my favorite movie of all time. I'm a painter (and love late 19th-century Parisian art!) so I picked up some of these things already, but you went even deeper! Loved it.
As a writer I loved this movie. As someone who has worked in film crew, I appreciated the craft of this movie. But you nailed the exact visual language that went into it. Stuff like this reminds me why I should stick to writing. The nuances of visual language just aren't clear to me. If I ever get a script going, maybe you could direct.
My favorite movie of all time…. Seen it like a hundred times, don’t get tired of it, and each time I can see more and more the genius and interconnections in so many different ways between characters, time, place, art, history, romance, dialogue, wittiness… it’s just an incredible feat to pull off and this film does it all. The only thing though is how some characters just disappear completely towards the end like Gil’s fiancé and her parents… I mean did they go back to the US? Did they have a huge argument at the hotel… etc. regardless, it’s a well put together film. Woody Allen tried the same with From Rome with Love film and it fell flat on its face. Midnight in Paris just clicks in so many amazing ways.
I love 'Midnight in Paris'. But even if the rest of the movie were total crap, the final scene between Gil and Gabrielle would still make it worthwhile.
I think Woody Allen’s latest movies are his most wonderful - Midnight in Paris, Cafe Society, Blue Jasmine and Vicky, Christina, Barcelona. Vicky Christina, Barcelona was historical, with these crazy characters doing ridiculous things, while the narrator has the difficult job of explaining everything in this droll manner, as if it’s all just a normal turn of events. Even Whatever Works was great, The lead character is this insufferable egomaniac who probably most people could never abide living with. In fact, the mother of the young girl he marries faints when she discovers her daughter is living in this rundown apartment with this crazy old man. There is something very “clean” about all these productions.
The major players in this film each had their own notion of what were the good old days, their Golden Age. Owen Wilson delivered Woody Allen quips in Woody Allen style. In the end, he's with the girl that could have been Mia Farrow's stunt double, telling me Woody's Golden Age was spent with Mia Farrow.
great insight on a great movie. Still one of my top 10 movies of all time. Has a slight charm to it and the actors did a really good job playing these roles that you mentioned. Very awesome.
Been watching Allen's films on release all my adolescent and adult life. When I saw Midnight in Paris with my then girlfriend was blown away. It seems superficially... superficial: soppy, romantic, easy on the eye, funny. But , it is, as you point out, a crafted rumination on nostalgia, ageing and true romantic love. Brilliant scene analysis. Thank you, man. And you're correct. Paris is not a lovely town. It's noisy, busy and full of overpriced joints with rude waiters.

I loved when his ex fiancée said she would hate walking in the rain and getting wet while Gabrielle said she didn't mind getting wet.
Your editing and presentation makes this analysis seem so apparent, but there are such profound observations here. Made my day. I love this movie

This is greatness. I learned so much.
I love the tiled storytelling and plot recaps
The ultimate movie for romantics!

Thanks so much, I appreciate it!
Gabrielle was from the future and this was her romantic dream time.
Ooh I like that idea!
C'est bien possible !
I think Inez didn’t understand Gil’s problem, Adriana had the same problem and Gabrielle was the solution to the problem
Great point!
Inez was perfectly cast, as was Gil, and Adreana. I adore this film.
This is really insightful! Keep up the good work!

Geez, what a breakdown. Wish my thoughts were as expressive, detailed, and clear as you did with this!
Thank you so much!
Can’t believe you have 355 subscribers you deserve so much more the quality of this video was incredible
The woman In the end with gil in the rain is so beautiful 😍 she makes the movie so pure and amazing

You taught me new things. Well done, Coby.
What great movie! Gil's time warp is a straight connection with his real soul. Fantastic!
I love 'Midnight in Paris'. But even if the rest of the movie were total crap, the final scene between Gil and Gabrielle would still make it worthwhile.
I dunno, all I see is a rhinoceros
Dali......Dali.....that scene hit hard for me
You explained it very well. Thank you.
I didn’t know films were this in depth wow

Gr8 detailing!
Absolutely incredible dude. You added a whole new layer of introspection and analysis to an already complex film
Great work man, loved it
Very nice camera explanation. Thank you
Lightning McQueen flirting 3 celebrities in the same movie. Cachao, I am speeeed
A true hero
Incredible video, great analysis
Nice video, I didn’t notice at all what the camera was telling :(
I’m still having trouble to understand Allen’s films.
Gil is not a hero, no, he is the protagonist. There are no heroes in Woody Allen movies.
This is amazing! I love Midnight in Paris and this was really interesting thank you :)
I'm glad you enjoyed it!
My colleague is like Paul.
Brilliant analysis, you’ve really highlighted the camera’s ability to capture the essence of the story. Paris was beautifully captured in this film.
Was Gabrielle a time traveler too?
I wonder I never thought of that
💜💜💜
Loved this film, great video, really looking forward to rewatching and catching all the points you mentioned in the video.
Thank you!
great insight on a great movie. Still one of my top 10 movies of all time. Has a slight charm to it and the actors did a really good job playing these roles that you mentioned. Very awesome.
Excellent! I had no idea about the details of shot composition when filming. Fascinating.
Thanks for the new perspective! Does anyone else notice that purple and gold are used in almost every scene?
very nice explenation of woddys art of filmling
This is fabulous analysis, please do many more
Illuminating. Thanks for this.
Woow. ❤️
Hats off, what a beautiful observation
The one dislike is from Inez
Then I take her dislike as a compliment
Thanks for the insights and since the director calls the shots, it seems Woody Allen knows what he is doing
Intriguing and discerning analysis, very well done!

Um belo filme tendo Paris como pano de fundo; talvez um dos melhores de W. Allen....
Algo verdadeiramente lindo, original e especial
This was exceptional
It was an absolute pleasure watching this video. I think I learned a lot from this.
Thank you that's so encouraging, glad you got something from it!
I totally missed all these cinematographic cues. Is it good cinematography if an ordinary audience doesn't get it?
Absolutely. It works on subconscious level
Such an underrated channel
amazing video
This is AMAZING.
beautiful!
Excellently told.
Well done
Loved it
Really good content keep continue 👍👍

Your editing is incredible, so simple yet so inspiring in a way. I already adored this film but you made me love it even more
Wow, thank you so much. That really means a lot to me! I'm glad it complemented the film for you!
