LA’s long awaited rain couldn’t keep Sony Pictures Home Entertainment from celebrating the DVD release of Woody Allen’s Magic In The Moonlight with a vintage-themed party at The Crocker Club in downtown LA on December 2nd.
Allen’s whimsical 2014 romantic comedy stars Colin Firth as a magician on a mission to debunk a professional clairvoyant played by Emma Stone. The film was well received during its theatrical run with reviewers noting the strong performances of Firth and Stone as well as cinematographer Darius Khondji’s excellent work capturing the French Riviera of the 1920s. (The two are already collaborating on Allen’s next film.)
At the party, guests could circulate among screen-used costumes from the film as a tarot card reader and astrologer worked their, um, magic. There was also a hip, young stylist on hand for guests who wanted a quick touch up. (Unfortunately she didn’t have the many hours this CR scribe would have needed!)
Woody Allen’s Magic In The Moonlight is available on digital HD on December 2, with the Blu-ray and DVD release on December 16th.
