To Rome With Love

Woody Allen plays a father meeting his daughter's Italian in-laws-to-be.  The movie weaves four different tales set in Rome.  There is Woody who just retired from the music business (not by choice) trying to launch a possible music career for the to be father in-law.  There are the young Italian newly weds that arrive in Rome to meet rich relatives who can launch new husbands career.  Penelope Cruz gets involved as a hooker who ends up in the new husband's room by mistake.  Alec Baldwin is trying to relive his young days in Rome by hooking up with a young American Architect and his girlfriend.  It all intertwines but there are truly some funny moments.  And there is Rome and its sights.  Okay, I am predigested--Rome is one of my favorite cities.  Go for the travel experience.  Also stars Roberto Benigni as a nobody turned celebrity for the moment.  Not as creative as Midnight in Paris, but worth seeing.
