Go in from here and this film is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.
How it feels

What happens
A Midsummer Night's Sex Comedy is a 1982 American sex comedy film written and directed by Woody Allen, starring Allen and Mia Farrow. The plot is loosely based on Swedish filmmaker Ingmar Bergman's 1955 comedy film Smiles of a Summer Night. It was the first of thirteen films that Allen would make starring Farrow. Her role of Ariel Weymouth was originally written for Diane Keaton, another Allen collaborator, but Keaton was preoccupied promoting Reds and preparing production on Shoot the Moon. Julie Hagerty, Mary Steenburgen, Tony Roberts and Jose Ferrer co-star. It also marks the first appearance of Allen as an ensemble performer in his own film. Previously, he had either been the lead character or did not appear at all. A Midsummer Night's Sex Comedy received positive reviews and was a minor commercial success. However, it was nominated for one Golden Raspberry Award for Worst Actress, for Farrow at the 3rd Golden Raspberry Awards – the only time an Allen film has been nominated for a Razzie.
