Review of A Rainy Day in New York

It doesn't rank with the best Woody Allen movies, but it's a nice little film. There is a suspenseful and sad scene where Elle Fanning's character is mistreated by a slimy Lothario; her exfiltration from his flat counterpoints the Timothée Chalamet character's comical flight through an art museum. There is a touching, albeit far-fetched, reconciliation between a mother and son. The dialogue requires suspension of disbelief, and the many romantic betrayals never cut very deep.
