Review of Annie Hall

Annie Hall (1977)
8/10
The creative genius who needs to stay off his actresses
20 August 2007
Annie Hall is one of Woody Allen's most original and refined films. Its really too bad he had to put himself in most of the sex scenes. Meh! And hearing him moaning during those sex scenes... Gag! Could someone please pass me a bucket and a copy of Mulholland Drive?.

Allen's horniness was only a minor issue in this extremely funny and inventive comedy. I know a lot of Star Wars fans are annoyed by Annie Hall beating Star Wars at the Academy Awards and winning the best picture prize. To those of us who have seen Star Wars and Annie Hall, and don't have a Wookie bias, its easy to see which is the superior film. Star Wars was not as refined, and the writing in Annie Hall was much stronger.

If you haven't seen this gem, you should definitely check it out. It might become one of your favorite comedies. Annie Hall is an example of what comedies used to be.... Funny.
