Blue Jasmine

Eccentric characters dominate this down-to-earth, well-acted, nonlinear, 98-minute, typical Woody Allen film in which a judgmental, privileged, controlling, on-the-edge snob (Cate Blanchett) ends up leaving her adulterous, financially scheming husband (Alec Baldwin) in New York to move in with her estranged, grocery clerk sister (Sally Hawkins) in Brooklyn, who is dating an auto mechanic (Bobby Cannavale) after her reluctant divorce from her husband (Andrew Dice Clay), and tries to begin a new life with a wealthy businessman (Peter Sarsgaard) in San Francisco.
