Small Time Crooks

Rating: * * * * Director: Woody Allen Running time: 95 minutes Language: English Now showing

"Small Time Crooks" is not Woody Allen's latest film (it was released in the United States last year), but you find yourself wishing it was. Wishing, in fact, that it was shot after Sept. 11 and that it was Allen's most recent take on life in New York. That way you could almost fool yourself into believing that none of that day's events ever happened -- after all, here's the most New Yorker of New Yorkers to tell you so.
