i saw metropolitan around the early ninety . review be very good compare it to woody allen work . i find it talky and the character irritate . i then saw it around ten year on and find it truly captivate . it be a very intelligent piece of write with a slightly chekhovian feel . you warm to the character gradually and by the end i really connect with the will they would not they scenario of audrey and tom . most of the actor in this film be make their debut and they be all surprisingly strong especially chris eigmann a nick he be very funny and really energise the scene he be in . whit stillman screenplay be warm and witty and sensitive and memorable a gem .
