Annie Hall
1977 | Comedy | USA | Directed by Woody Allen
Overview
Alvy Singer deconstructs his failed romance with Diane Keaton menswear charm, splitting the screen, addressing the camera, and subtitling what two strangers really think. Best Picture over Star Wars, and Keaton style became a national fashion. Romantic comedy grew up here: neurosis, therapy jokes, and endings that refuse to reconcile. The standup sensibility as cinema.
