Woody Allen captures the tragedy which outweighs any comedy and Cate Blanchett, now jasmine, deserved to win the best actress Oscar for her performance. Jasmine is in a fragile emotional state and lacks job skills when she loses her rich prvialidged life because her cheating crook of a husband Al, played brilliantly by Alec Baldwin, hangs himself in jail, leaving her penniless having to move in with Ginger, her much poorer sister.Jasmine is amazing to watch, as the plot unfolds, going back and forward in time throughout the film, telling the sorry tale of the pitiful downfall of her rich prvialidged life. The perfect wife with status anxiety, married to a Wall Street financier, living the high life, ends up taking zanax, downing too much vodka, when she loses it all accepting a menial job with a dentist to pay for night classes to become an interior designer in order to climb back up the success ladder. She meets a handsome wealthy widower, Dwight Westlake, at a party in Marin County north of San Francisco and finally finds the substantial Man she hopes will elevate her back to where she belongs but after telling white lies about her past to impress him, it all comes back to destroy her further. She pretends to be an interior designer and tells him that she has no children and that her spouse was a surgeon who passed away from a heart attack. Her sense of style impresses Dwight, who asks her to furnish his new house and they begin dating. It pays tribute to a street car named desire and is so well worth watching.BLUE JASMINE is about the dire consequences that can result when people avert their eyes from reality and the truth they don't wish to see.
