By his own admission, writer/director Woody Allen has far more ideas for movies than he will ever have time to put on film. The concept for MELINDA AND MELINDA was one of many he spawned over the past several years, but it was one of the most intriguing. In this film, Allen, one of the most respected filmmakers on the international film landscape for over three decades, explores some of his most beloved terrain: personal struggles with morality, identity, intimacy, jealousy and the vagaries of romantic love. The twist in MELINDA AND MELINDA is introduced in the film's opening scene, in which four sophisticated New Yorkers enjoy a dinner out on a rainy night. An anecdote provokes a discussion between writers Max (LARRY PINE) and Sy (WALLACE SHAWN) about the dual nature of human drama, symbolized by the comedy/tragedy mask of theater. Ultimately a comic tale unfolds, pitted against a more dramatic version of itselfboth centered around a somewhat enigmatic woman named Melinda (RADHA MITCHELL).
