Annie Hall is Allen at his most creatively inclusive: he here blends comedy and drama, fantasy and realism, live action and animation, and a surprise appearance by Marshall McLuhan into a touching meditation on the beginnings and endings of relationships. Intensely subjective, the film is not so much the chronicle of the breakup of New Yorkers Alvy (Allen) and Annie (Keaton) as a journey into Allen’s mind. At once hilarious and tragic, Annie Hall is the director’s best-loved film and perhaps the most realized representation of his unique take on modern romance.
