Woody Allen, who knows something about older-man/younger-woman romances, makes such a relationship the principal theme of his latest comedy as writer-director. Larry David ("Curb Your Enthusiasm") plays the elder half of the equation, a New York crank whose involvement with a young runaway ( Evan Rachel Wood) yields surprising results for all concerned – including her mother (Patricia Clarkson).

Ed Begley Jr. and Michael McKean also appear. *** (PG-13: AS, N, P) (Also on Blu-ray)
