 Amazon.com: September: DVD: Woody Allen,Denholm Elliott,Dianne Wiest,Mia Farrow,Elaine Stritch,Sam Waterston,Jack ...   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
September is best known as the movie Woody Allen made twice, bang on top of each other, and still brought in on time and on budget.
Upon release, September seemed remarkably crimped, reductive, and sterile in a manner in which his earlier dramatic effort, Interiors (1978), had not; and for the first time, Allen's self-cannibalization of earlier themes, plots, and jokes was blatantly apparent.
September, which is scripted like a four-act play and was originally scheduled to be filmed in Farrow's Connecticut home, was shot completely on a studio set; though rain, thunder, croaking frogs, and crickets are heard intermittently, the Vermont landscape is never glimpsed, another factor which initially seemed to detract from the film.
