Woody Allen's Narration.


- Was horrible.

Mind you, I liked the film quite a bit, but the VO sounded like he was bored, & reading the words for the first time. It took me right out of the movie every time it happened. I couldn't believe my eyes when I read who had actually done it.


Am I alone?

Woody narrating made sense in Husbands and Wives (and he sounded more "enthusiastic") but it didn't work in Cafe Society IMO

Actually Bruce Willis would have been great as the Narrator
Bruce would have put this film on a whole different level, too bad it didn't work out
