Food as a Metaphor for Love, Sex and Life in Woody Allen's Movies

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

In Woody Allen?s works, the role of gastronomy is not only marginal, as food becomes a metaphor for love, sex, ethnicity, and the attitude of the protagonists towards life. This paper deals with Allen?s moviemaking and finds links between food and relationships (including the purely physical ones), demonstrates how dysfunctional relationships are reflected in food, and points out that the desire for food corresponds to the desire for life shared by Allen?s life-affirming characters. Food also reveals the ethnic identity of Allen?s characters and contrasts them with Gentiles. The protagonists of Woody Allen?s movies also use food to become assimilated into their environment, and the wrong choice of food often proves that they are outsiders.
