2 DAYS IN NEW YORK Oct 5-11
A film by Julie Delpy, Comedy, R, 96 min, in English
"Almost as good as vintage Woody Allen." -Stephen Holden, NY TIMES
"A HILARIOUS COMEDY OF MANNERS. There are echoes of Woody Allen, as if Annie Hall were behind the camera."-Yahoo Movies
Marion and Mingus live cozilyperhaps too cozilywith their cat and two young children from previous relationships. However, when Marion's jolly father (played by director Delpy's real-life dad), her oversexed sister, and her sister's outrageous boyfriend unceremoniously descend upon them for a visit, it initiates two unforgettable days that will test Marion and Mingus's relationship. With their unwitting racism and sexual frankness, the French triumvirate hilariously has no boundaries or filters...and no person is left unscathed in its wake.
Directed and cowritten by Delpy, 2 Days in New York is a deliciously witty romp. One of the pleasures of this follow-up film to 2 Days in Paris is the addition of Chris Rock, whoamid the Gallic mayhemconvincingly plays the straight man as Marion's hipster American boyfriend. With great skill and energy, Delpy heightens cultural differences to comedic extremes but also manages to show that sometimes change is the best solution to a relationship that's been pushed to its limit.
