Being the complete Geek of early 20th century culture that I am, I have to say that Woody Allen's "Midnight in Paris" is the first truly great film of 2011. Everything about this film made me squeal with delight: The script, the graceful editing, Owen Wilson's Allen type protagonist, the portrayals of 1920's public figures, and felling I got walking away from the theatre. Woody Allen's best film in years.

The only thing that would have made this film better would be if Hemingway had punched Gil at some point.
