Paris Manhattan is a delightful romantic comedy from 2012 directed by Sophie Lellouche. It stars Alice Taglioni, Patrick Bruel, and Marine Delterme in the lead roles. The movie is set in the charming city of Paris and revolves around the life of a thirty-something pharmacologist named Alice. Alice is obsessed with Woody Allen's films and sees him as her imaginary friend. She even has a poster of him in her bedroom, talks to him, and seeks his advice on everything from her love life to her career. Alice is witty, quirky, and endearing, but she has a hard time finding love in the real world as she sets her standards too high and is too picky with her suitors.

One day, Alice's father tasks her with helping his friend and regular customer Victor, played by Patrick Bruel, to overcome his fear of flying. Victor is a successful and charming gentleman with a passion for wine, but he is also a widower and deeply grieving the loss of his wife. Alice and Victor quickly become friends, and she begins to see him as a possible romantic interest.

At the same time, Alice's sister Hélène, played by Marine Delterme, is going through a rough patch with her husband and seeks solace in her sister's companionship. She encourages her sister to be more daring in her love life and to take risks. Alice, taking her sister's advice to heart, decides to confess her love to Victor and take their friendship to the next level.

The movie is a lighthearted and funny take on love, relationships, and family dynamics. The performances of the lead actors are engaging and charming, with Alice Taglioni's portrayal of Alice being particularly noteworthy. She infuses the character with a sense of vulnerability, intelligence, and a quirky charm that is hard to resist.

The film's script is smart, witty, and full of amusing nods to Woody Allen's movies. As Alice seeks advice from Woody Allen in various ways, the movie features famous Woody Allen quotes and scenes that complement the narrative. These references, however, do not detract from the story but instead provide an extra layer of enjoyment for fans of Woody Allen's films.

The direction by Sophie Lellouche is light, breezy, and visually engaging as she captures the beauty of Paris in all its glory. The cinematography is stunning, with the city of Paris providing a picturesque backdrop for most of the movie's scenes. The soundtrack, comprising of classic tunes from Woody Allen's films and original music, is a treat for the ears and enhances the movie's romantic and comedic elements.

In conclusion, Paris Manhattan is a delightful and heartwarming romantic comedy that will appeal to fans of Woody Allen's films and anyone who enjoys a good love story. The film's clever script, engaging performances, and charming direction make for an enjoyable and entertaining cinematic experience.
