Profile of Midnight in Paris

Midnight in Paris can be described as clever, witty, and stylized. The plot revolves around the life of a writer, imaginary themes, and artists and showbiz. The main genres are comedy, independent, and fantasy. In terms of style, Midnight in Paris is postmodernist, is surreal, and is talky. It is located in Paris. It takes place in the 20th century and in contemporary times. Midnight in Paris has received attention for being a Golden Globe winner, an Oscar winner, and critically acclaimed. It is well suited for a date night.

Summary of Midnight in Paris

Gil Pender (Owen Wilson) is a screenwriter and aspiring novelist. Vacationing in Paris with his fiancee (Rachel McAdams), he has taken to touring the city alone. On one such late-night excursion, Gil encounters a group of strange -- yet familiar -- revelers, who sweep him along, apparently back in time, for a night with some of the Jazz Age's icons of art and literature. The more time Gil spends with these cultural heroes of the past, the more dissatisfied he becomes with the present.

A Fantastic Surprise
When I went to the local indie theater to see this, I had absolutely no idea what it was about. I had low expectations, seeing as Owen Wilson always seems to play the same lost, goofball character. But Owen Wilson gives a stellar performance in his...
