Short description
While on a trip to Paris with his fiancée's family, a nostalgic screenwriter finds himself mysteriously going back to the 1920s every day at midnight.
What's left behind the scenes
- Woody Allen's first film to gross over $100 million worldwide.
- On the film's poster, Owen Wilson is depicted walking against the backdrop of Van Gogh's famous painting "The Starry Night" (1889-90).
- Woody Allen did not attend the 2012 Academy Awards ceremony. The film was awarded Best Original Screenplay, but the director continued his tradition of never attending the event, as he is not a member of the Academy. The director made only one exception in 2002, when he participated in the ceremony to pay tribute to the tragic events in New York on September 11, 2001.
- The plot that Gil discusses with Luis Buñuel was used in the film "The Exterminating Angel" (1962).
- While filming in Paris, Woody Allen stayed at the Hotel Le Bristol, the very same one where the characters of Gil and Inez stayed.
- The painting that Picasso is painting in the film is "Bathers 4" (1928). By that time, he had already been in a relationship with Maria-Theresa Walter for a year, who was the subject of several of his paintings and would give birth to his daughter in a couple of years.
- Gil first meets Hemingway at the Polidor restaurant. Returning to 2010, Gil finds a laundromat in the restaurant's place. However, in Paris in 2010, this restaurant still existed.
