Melinda and Melinda

Radha Mitchell plays two versions of Melinda, a woman who two writers imagine comes undone at a dinner party in different ways -- one as a comedy, the other as a tragedy -- in this Woody Allen concoction. In one plot, Melinda's problems hasten the breakup of her friends' (Chloe Sevigny and Jonny Lee Miller) marriage, while in the other, she throws another couple, Susan and Hobie (Amanda Peet and Will Ferrell), into a hilarious tizzy.
