IRRATIONAL MAN
Starring Joaquin Phoenix, Emma Stone and Parker Posey, Irrational Man is a wry, upbeat comedy about a brilliant but tormented philosophy professor in crisis. Abe (Phoenix) arrives at a small picturesque Rhode Island College feeling that his life is meaningless.
He soon attracts the attention of Rita (Posey), a lonely professor who sees Abe as her escape from an unhappy marriage, and Jill (Stone), a bright student who finds his tortured artistic personality irresistible. Pure chance changes everything for Abe when he overhears a stranger’s tale of woe. Abe sees his opportunity to perform what he believes is a moral act and suddenly his life has purpose. But as Jill begins to uncover the true cause of Abe’s newfound happiness, his perfect plan begins to unravel.
Showcasing terrific comedic performances and Woody Allen’s trademark wit, Irrational Man is a playful musing on the fallibility of reason in the face of reality.
Release date: August 20

Feedback/Comments
Great movie exceptional acting!
Wonderful
I actually enjoyed this film , particularly the ending. But then again am a bit if a Woody Allen fan.
I really want to like Woody Allen movies... But will need to wait for that feeling. While I appreciate the acting of Joaquin Phoenix, Woody still makes movies fur me rather laboured.
Thanks for the tickets, and the chance to try again!
Woody was scraping the barrel with this one! Glad the tickets were free as I would have been disappointed to pay to watch it.
Great and funny!
