'Midnight in Paris' shows Allen at his sentimental best

Following his European jaunts around England and Spain, writer-director Woody Allen says bonjour to Paris for his new romantic comedy, his 41st movie.

Disillusioned Hollywood screenwriter Gil (Owen Wilson) is contemplating giving up his life behind the film cameras to fulfil his literary aspirations and pen his first novel, after jetting out to the French capital on holiday with beautiful fiancée Inez (Rachel McAdams) and her conservative parents (Kurt Fuller, Mimi Kennedy).
