Description

Writer-director-actor Woody Allen is in prime form in this celebrated comedy in which he portrays a neurotic, highly insecure and indecisive comedy writer who falls head over heels in love with a naive small-town "girl" (Diane Keaton) who wants to be a singer. The opening rounds of their relationship involve every romantic cliche (hilariously re-created by Allen). Keaton's horrified parents snub the nerd-ish city slicker who loves their daughter, but they move in together, anyway. Insecure Allen is so sure he will lose Keaton that he interprets her every move as rejection. As Keaton's self-confidence grows, Allen's progressively fades. Keaton debuts as a singer, is "discovered" by a record tycoon and agrees to move to Hollywood and live with him. Now Allen has really lost her.

    [last lines] Alvy Singer: [narrating] After that it got pretty late, and we both had to go, but it was great seeing Annie again. I... I realized what a terrific person she was, and... and how much fun it was just knowing her; and I... I, I thought of that old joke, y'know, the, this... this guy goes to a psychiatrist and says, "Doc, uh, my brother's crazy; he thinks he's a chicken." And, uh, the doctor says, "Well, why don't you turn him in?" The guy says, "I would, but I need the eggs." Well, I guess that's pretty much now how I feel about relationships; y'know, they're totally irrational, and crazy, and absurd, and... but, uh, I guess we keep goin' through it because, uh, most of us... need the eggs.

    Being that this is the movie that beat the original Star Wars movie to the Best Picture Oscar, my nerd instincts tell me I should be doubled over in rage by this movie, but to be honest, I just can't. It is super funny even by today's standards, and Alvy Singer is a wildly relatable character, as I am quite shy and awkward myself. And Paul Simon is in it! I guess if Star Wars didn't win Best Picture, I'm glad this one got the honor
  • Touches so many emotions, with humor

    I’m embarrassed to admit how many times I’ve watched this film.. its that good. The comedy holds up for countless viewings. It provides an intimate look into the lives of New Yorkers doing their thing and finding themselves and love in the Big Apple. What I love is how honest and intimate it feels with the characters and the city. As someone who has gone back and forth between NYC and California for most of my adult life, some of the humor about these two places really hits home. I feel like Allen admits thoughts about relationships that most people keep inside. Character driven films are the best, and this is one of them. Also love Allen’s Manhattan.

    A true gem. One of the all time great movies with wit,charm and big loughs. Woody Allen's best work combining the "funny" Allen with his more serious romantic side. Perfect in every way. My personal sentimental favorite movie.
