Midsummer Night's Sex Comedy - 5

Of the Woody Allen films I have seen this is one is mediocre. But it has the classic funny/serious tone. With good questions about the existence of the soul, as well as realities beyond the five senses. This film takes place in the early 20th century and is the tale of three couples who are away in the country outside New York city for the weekend. They all soon find out that they are in love (or lust?) with different people, and the comedy begins as they try to pursue their new interest. The dialogue is interesting because of the different worldviews of each of the characters and how they integrate it with there lived experience.
