Annie Hall

Winner of four Academy Awards including Best Picture and Best Director, 'Annie Hall' is Woody Allen's supreme masterpiece. Coming between such early, slapstick farces as 'Sleeper' and 'Love and Death', and darker, more reflective comedies like 'Manhattan' and 'Hannah and Her Sisters,' this endearing semi-autobiographical film put Woody in the league with the best directors we have. Starring Allen as New York comedian Alvy Singer and Diane Keaton (in a Best Actress Oscar-winning role) as Annie, the film weaves flashbacks, flash forwards, monologues, a parade of classic Allen one-liners, and even animation into an alternately uproarious and wistful comedy about a witty and wacky on-again, off-again romance.
