Loved this movie!

Rating: 9/10 (2 April 2017)

This 1975 movie, both written and directed by Woody Allen, has got to be one of his very best! Starring Allen and Diane Keaton as Boris and Sonja, two Napoleonic era figures who participate in constant philosophical debates with each other!
Boris is in love with his twice-removed cousin Sonja, but she is in deeply in love with a herring merchant! When Sonja becomes widowed, she very reluctantly agrees to wed the smitten Boris, only because she believes he is going to be killed in a duel the following day. Much to her chagrin he survives, and they then begin discussing starting a family. But when that plan is interrupted by Napoleon who is looking to invade the Russian Empire, they concoct a scheme to assassinate him!
Allen considered this to be one of his funniest movies up until this point (1975). Quite frankly, I think it's one of his funniest movies of all time!
