His new movie 'Vicky Cristina Barcelona' deals with women, men and multiple lovers, but when it comes to real-life romance, director Woody Allen, 72, says more than a single partner is far too many these days. "It's hard enough to get one person," he told reporters atA the Cannes film festival. In trying to figure out solutions in life, two tends to make it more complicated than one."
"In film, you can do it because I'm dealing with larger than life characters ... but in real life, most of us could never handle anything like that," he added.
'Vicky Cristina Barcelona', which looks at several different love relationships including a menage-a-trois, debuted to a warm reception at Cannes as one of the few comedies showing this year. Many films, such as prison drama 'Hunger' and Lebanese war movie 'Waltz with Bashir' delve into dark human conditions.
Show business newspaper Daily Variety called 'Vicky Cristina' "a sexy, funny divertissement that passes as enjoyably as an idle sunny afternoon in the titular Spanish city" and added the film "is by several degrees more hot-blooded than his (Allen's) usual norm." Allen said he definitely wanted to make the movie funny, but he also saw it as a somewhat tragic tale of people who can't fall in love, others who fall perhaps too deeply for each other, and those who marry for all the wrong reasons.
