One of my favorites

As a kid, this was the first Woody Allen picture that I saw (I must say that I'm an Allen nut now). Even though I didn't see it in a theater or even in the 1970's, its wit and freshness were obvious. "Annie Hall" is a film that doesn't dumb itself down so that everyone gets the allusions - I have to admit that I looked up Marshall McLuhan in an encyclopedia after watching it. "Annie Hall" is brimming with technique - there are flashbacks, flash-forwards, and animations among other things - but it takes no effort to follow. It's one of the most touching, funny movies that I've ever seen.
A+
