About this product
Product Information
Often considered the crown jewel in a highly acclaimed and prolific film career, ANNIE HALL is Woody Allen's only film to have won the Academy Award for Best Picture. This recognition, however, is not what makes the film significant. ANNIE HALL marks the beginning of the second phase of Allen's career as a filmmaker, abandoning the slapstick of SLEEPER and BANANAS for more thoughtful comedies (and eventually dramas) that explored human relationships and psychology. Allen's capacity as a creative filmmaker had also grown with the film, as he utilized creative subtitles, split screens, and animation, as well as evincing a sophisticated understanding of the potential of editing and camera movement for comic effect--consider the cutaway to Allen's character Alvy Singer, as seen through the eyes of "Grammy Hall" during the dinner sequence, or shortly afterward the slow pan to Alvy in the passenger seat of a car driven by Annie's unhinged brother Duane. The film is a brutally honest assessment of the prospects of a relationship between two very different people. Allen's Alvy is (like the filmmaker himself) an introverted, neurotic intellectual and a complete mismatch for Diane Keaton's vivacious, flaky Annie Hall. Although the romance is undoubtedly the center of the film, it affords Allen the opportunity to contrast his beloved New York culture with that of the Midwest, where Annie comes from, and Los Angeles, which tempts Annie with the possibility of fame and success as a singer. The city of New York itself plays an important part for the first time in an Allen film, with a great deal of location shooting that serves to highlight the city's character and atmosphere. Finally, the many comedic cameos peppered through the film--from Truman Capote to Paul Simon to media theorist Marshall McLuhan--pay tribute to the deserved reputation that Allen had gained for himself.Product Identifiers

Love Diane Keaton, but.............. Do not care for this movie. Don't like Woody Allen. Think Diane was better in several other roles, but glad she got an award. Just think it should be for another movie(s).Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

I didn't care much for Woody Allen's ear...
I didn't care much for Woody Allen's early films but his first major work Annie Hall won me over with it's charming comedy and really funny dialogue. My favourite Allen films are Hanna and her Sisters and Radio Days but I still occasionally watch this still fresh 1977 gem. It's also interesting to see a very young Diane Keaton in her Oscar winning role. The film actually won four Oscars.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

The old Woody Allen comedies are unforgettable
Saw this movie back in its theater run. In this writer's opinion, it is hard to beat Woody Allen's comedic style. I very seldom view a movie more than once, but his style is unforgettable to me.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
