Shadows And Fog

With equal parts of Kafka and Fritz Lang, Woody Allen tells the darkly comic tale of a '20s European town being terrorized by a strangler, and how Kleinman (Allen)-a hapless local rousted into joining a vigilante posse-is turned by circumstance into the target of the mob's wrath. This expressionistic meditation on fate, sex, love and death also stars Mia Farrow, John Malkovich, Jodie Foster, Madonna, Lily Tomlin, John Cusack, and Donald Pleasence. 85 min. BW/Rtg: PG-13
