Marion is a woman who has learned to shield herself from her emotions. She rents an apartment to work undisturbed on her new book, but by some acoustic anomaly she can hear all that is said in the next apartment in which a psychiatrist holds his office. When she hears a young woman tell that she finds it harder and harder to bear her life, Marion starts to reflect on her own life. After a series of events she comes to understand how her unemotional attitude towards the people around her affected them and herself.

people keep describing this as Allen's most Bergman film. I have only seen two Bergman films and I am not sure I have matured enough cinematically to fully appreciate what he is doing yet, but I did see Autumn Sonata and I felt something similar watching that particular register of restrained emotion about to crack. whether I am tracing it back to its godfather or just recognizing a lineage I have encountered elsewhere, the feeling was familiar.
what the film is really about is a woman who is a philosophy chair, someone whose entire life is built around rational understanding and yet she was never able to outsmart the most ordinary human downfalls. infidelity, jealousy, familial strain. the very things she could probably lecture about. her intellectualism offers her no immunity from them and no framework adequate to actually living through them, and watching her reckon with that gap is devastating.
I hear people say Allen's comedies are better than his dramas and I genuinely do not agree. I love his funny films Love & Death is one of my favorites from him but there is something about when he is serious that I find equally compelling, maybe more so. Another Woman is understated and melancholy and completely felt. one of his better dramatic works.

Another Woman is yet another homage to Ingmar Bergman by Woody Allen, and I find it beautiful. It’s a meticulous character study, both in its non-linear, almost dreamlike structure and in its pristine visual presentation. It’s an impressive feat that showcases Allen’s versatility. However, as strong as the film is, there’s a somewhat dry quality to it that I find slightly disengaging. To me, Allen is at his best when exploring thematically complex ideas through his signature comedic lens.
For all intents and purposes, Another Woman is humorless. That’s not to say the film doesn’t work, but I do feel it might have worked slightly better with a touch of comedy. This may sound hypocritical, as I'm a big fan of Interiors. However, to me, Interiors feels more fleshed out and emotionally complex, likely because it's a more ambitious story and follows multiple characters rather than staying so tightly focused on just one. Either way, I like seeing this side of Allen, even when it exists outside his comfort zone.
