The First Time the Oscars' Have Been Right in a Long Time.

Rating: Null/10 (22 July 2002)

**** out of ****
Though I prefer Woody Allen's 1986 film Hannah and Her Sisters, ANNIE HALL still holds a special place in my heart. It is the best interpretaion of a romance caught on film and it features my favorite performance by Diane Keaton next to her amazing work in Interiors.
The Plot: Alvy Singer (Woody Allen), a jewish comedian has been divorced twice. When he thinks he can never find love again, his friend, Rob (Tony Robins) takes Alvy to a tennis match. This is where Alvy is introduced to Annie Hall (Diane Keaton). The conversation starts when Annie asks for a ride home, the conversation ends with Alvy asking Annie out on a date.

Though it is a hilarous film, the comedy is not nearly as frequent as early Woody Allen films such as Bananas or Sleeper. Good, this film would have never worked if it were a laugh a minute film anyway.
See it. And if your in the mood to have a Woody Allen marathon, I suggest: Hannah and Her Sisters, Annie Hall, and Manhattan.
