SECONDHAND LIONS (2003)

September is a display of Woody Allen's influence by the Swedish director, Ingmar Bergman.  This is an psychoanalytical examination of characters who are constrained to the home of Lane (Mia Farrow) on the Vermont countryside.  Through the eyes of Allen, one can scrutinize a wide array of actions taken by the characters that are personified from their self-interests, insecurities and fears.  These actions lead to a cyclical pattern of the characters' behaviors that are built on their own view of self.  At the end, September will leave with a taste of bitterness due to its self-reflective influence.
