Purple Rose of Cairo: ““I met a wonderful new man. He’s fictional, but you can’t have everything.” During the Depression, miserably married waitress Mia Farrow finds relief only at the movies, where pith-helmeted adventurer Jeff Daniels pops off the screen into her life. But what happens to the movie after he leaves? Add hubby Danny Aiello’s jealousy, arrival of the real-life star of the picture (Daniels again), and arguably Allen’s most poignant conclusion. “
