Feel like Woody Allen for the dialogue

Woody Allen fans (of his early or later work or whatever), what would you say his best movies are?
dave "buh" Back · 18 years, 9 months ago

Annie Hall.
Sleeper.

There are so many. Annie Hall is his best.

Sleeper is his funniest.

Other great ones are:
  • Bananas
  • Take the Money and Run
  • Deconstructing Harry
  • Stardust Memories (The one that talks about people liking his earlier funny movies better)
  • Hannah and her Sisters
  • Zelig
  • Wild Man Blues (The documentary about his jazz band)


There are so many other great ones.

I take it you're a fan! Yeah, I was always sort of averse to Woody Allen because I didn't like nervous humor and I also didn't like "Everything you always wanted to know about sex . . ." But then I saw Bananas and loved it! And then I saw annie hall and fell in love.

Midsummer night's sex comedy was so-so. it wasn't as witty-snappy, and i thought mia farrow was a dead-weight (his chemistry with keaton is SO much better). But thanks for the tips!

well since there are "so many other great ones" which ones would you recommend i steer clear of?

The only one I'd steer clear of is Interiors. Actually he did a few more non-comedies. I don't even remember their names. After Interiors I didn't see any of them.

Oh yes, his last film, Melinda and Melinda rocked.

I haven't seen many, but the one's i've seen all rocked. I'm a newly-born Woody Allen Worshipper.

I've seen (in order of amazingness):

Annie Hall
Sleeper
Bananas
Take the Money and Run

They all came pretty close. Sleeper is obviously the funniest.

yeah i'm a newly-born worshipper too. Well I definitely plan on renting Sleeper and Take the Money and Run. Also Play it Again Sam and Manhattan.
