In which we fall in love with Jeff Daniels of DUMB AND DUMBER.

The premise of Woody Allen's THE PURPLE ROSE OF CAIRO was too hard for your hosts to resist as it leads us to a discussion of choosing the real world or a life in the movies. (And yes, we promise no MATRIX discussion this episode...)

However it wouldn't be TRILOGY IN THEORY without some self-loathing:

• Is heartbreak necessary to make a truly great love story?


• Mia Farrow's fragility is sweet to one host and scary to the other.


• And can we only approach the magical realism entries in Allen's filmography? (Shameless promotion time: our MIDNIGHT IN PARIS episode is our #2 most listened to blockbuster. Freaks.)

Enjoy our our failed attempt at a movie podcast for the Valentine's Day holiday before our listeners presumably go on to succeed on this most loathsome holiday!
