Allen can be literal-minded about his thematic polarities, but, in this movie, he has put actors with first-class temperament on the screen, and his writing is both crisp and ambivalent: 

he works everything out 
with 
a stringent [thoroughness]
  [thur-oh-nis]

that still allows room for surprise. And, through all the twists and turns


the ochre beauty of Barcelona 

(as photographed by Javier Aguirresarobe) plays a major role. The characters make maybe one or two more touristic stops than is necessary, but it’s a minor flaw. You can feel Allen’s excitement in the sensual atmosphere. 

Spain! A seventy-two-year-old man has warmed his bones.
