There haven't been so many mixed up
lovers abroad in the woods since Titania
fell in love with Bottom when Oberon
made an Ass of him. Woody Allen
puckishly transports his audience to a
country place during the "FIN DE SIE
CLE" where three couples attempt to
determine the difference between love
and lust and become thoroughly entangl
ed with each other in the process. The en
ding is happy, of course, and the beginn
ing and middle are fun for the au
dience, if not for the players.
The plot is slight, as midsummer froth
should be, and moves merrily as Andrew
(Woody Allen) pedals about on his flying
bicycle and reveals secrets with his spirit
lamp. Characters as well as secrets are
evealed, as the couples discover
mselves and each other.
Casting is commendable, particularly
