Poll question: "Annie Hall" vs "Manhattan" - Woody Allen Films.

Oh Annie!

[Sanity Claws]

1. Annie Hall is one of my favorite movies of all time

It really is a classic, whether you like Woody Allen films or not

[punpirate]

2. "Annie Hall," if only for...

... that one line: "You got a spider the size of Buick in there!"

[maveric]

3. And a young Christopher Walken too.

7. "Can I confess something?"

"I tell you this as an artist,I think you'll understand. Sometimes when I'm driving... on the road at night... I see two headlights coming toward me. Fast. I have this sudden impulse to turn the wheel quickly, head-on into the oncoming car. I can anticipate the explosion. The sound of shattering glass. The flames rising out of the flowing gasoline."

...

"Right. Well, I have to - I have to go now, Duane, because I, I'm due back on the planet Earth."

One of my favorite sequences. :D

4. Ah, lily white Manhattan...

I have to see some of his films again, haven't seen them in a while and a good friend has recommended a few.

But it is really, really, really, really irritating that there are so few people of color/people of different ethnicities playing main roles in any of his films which are usually in set in ultra diverse Manhattan.

There is something to be said about the fact that a guy like Woody wouldn't be hangin' with the homies, but still.

5. Annie Hall...

the night I saw that, I almost got killed in a car accident, got really stoned and fell in love....life imitating art...about 30 years ago, but still a memorable night!

6. Annie Hall was his last great film. All his subsequent ones became creepy

and UNFUNNY.

8. My grammy never gave gifts. She was too busy getting raped by Cossacks.

Annie Hall.

9. Annie Hall for the script, Manhattan for the soundtrack.

Some Woody Allen films must be included in the best-100 American films library.
