`Annie Hall', long thought to be Woody Allen's opus, is perhaps a perfect
romantic comedy because it not only shows the happy, touching moments of
relationships, but also displays the reality of coupling – the occasional
waning of interest in one another, the hypercritical moments, etc. It is
absolutely brilliantly written; Woody Allen exhibits his usual dry humor and
self-deprecation, but also his sensitive, passionate and romantic side. It
was because of this film that I fell in love with Woody Allen at the age of
twelve (take your cheap shot here) and almost twenty years later he still is
that intellectual, bookish and humorous ideal. Diane Keaton was his muse
and co-star for this film, and they are perfect counterparts – so much so
that their interaction onscreen doesn't seem like viewing two actors in a
film, but is a much more voyeuristic experience. Watching `Annie Hall' is
like sitting at a bistro table and observing another couple a few tables
away, and that is just one of the elements that make this film so endearing.
Most people can relate to at least some aspects of Alvy and Annie's
relationship, which helps make this film a timeless one.
However, `Annie Hall' is not just a good romantic comedy; it is a film that
engages some unusual storytelling techniques. Actors speak directly to the
audience, characters interact with strangers on the street who just happen
to know the answers to the personal questions posed, there is a brief
animation scene, etc. While none of these approaches were new in 1977,
their execution was inspired. `Annie Hall' is like a fond memory, or a
favorite old song – anytime I have discussed this film with others their
smiling expressions are usually tinged with a hint of nostalgia, because one
can look back on either their past or current relationship and do what
precious few films allow us to do – relate on a personal
level.
