I'm sitting here with Another Woman on TV, a Woody Allen drama. Gena Rowlands begins to realize that nobody likes her. I kind of like it. It doesn't have some of the crap his other dramas have had---in Interiors, for example, Diane Keaton played a celebrity poet, something I don't think exists. In September, Mia Farrow was unaware that her house she had put up for sale wasn't actually her property. Like Allen doesn't know how the world works.
In one scene in this movie, a father arranges for his son to work for a company producing paper products. It's far more plausible than job opportunities in his other dramas. In Interiors a woman turns down a high-paying job in advertising, a field she's never worked in, because she thinks it's beneath her. In September, Mia Farrow needs to find work so she figures she'll be an art photographer.
I don't know if the son was going to be an office boy, a factory boy or a warehouse boy, but it sounded like a pretty good job to me. He threw a bit of a tantrum over it.
With Sandy Dennis, Mia Farrow, Ian Holm, Gene Hackman; John Housman plays Gena Rowland's father--David Ogden Stiers plays a younger version of the same character.
