I am surprised that so few people mention that this film is so obviously inspired by Bergman's television series - which was later edited into a film.
As Scenes from a Marriage is perhaps my favourite Bergman film, it makes sense I guess that this is my favourite Woody Allen film.
If you like this film, I would highly recommend Bergman's "Scenes" and vice versa.
Regarding H&W, it is great in that it uncovers the savagery involved in love and breakups that many films gloss over. There are also some touching moments, but for the most part the film is an investigation into the darker side of relationships and egos.
I love it!
