Annie Hall (1977) |
Reviews and Comments




interestingIt's a rather difficult movie to get into. It's filled with flashbacks that make the movie jump around from scene to scene. It's a good movie otherwise and I can see why it is known as one of Woody Allen's best.




The lobster is definitely in the pot!Wow, the humor of Woody Allen! I first saw this a while back and loved it, and just saw it recently and it's timeless!
Woody is so brilliant, I love his comedies, but you have to understand him, no I'm not saying understand his love for his way-too-young-step-daughter, but his comedic mind.
This movie won the Academy for Best Picture in 1977. It is relatively short--about 1 1/2 hours, but packed full of laughs. Woody is Alvy Singer and reminisces about his lost true love, Annie Hall (Diane Keaton). The movie is full of scenes depicting his times with Annie. Alvy is a somewhat "nerdy" comic writer and falls for Annie, a mid-west, part-time photographer. In one scene Alvy tries to boil live lobsters, but they are crawling all over the floor---just fun to watch! One skit, where Alvy and Annie wait in line for a movie and a "know-it-all" guy in back of them tries to quote and analyze movies and media gurus. Alvy goes and pulls out Marshall McCluhan from out of nowhere and McCluhan tells the "know-it-all" he's full of crap and doesn't know what he's talking about. If you ever studied filmmaking in school, you were forced to read works by Marshall McCluhan, (I found McCluhan to be kind of full of crap---maybe I was too young then) so personally I found this scene, very amusing!
This film is cute and funny it is definitely a must see!
