I'll never get over Annie Hall. So many lines and attitudes from that movie became part of who I am, and I'll never fall out of love with Diane Keaton for that one performance alone.

If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

Ok, so I've only seen one Woody Allen movie. My dad insisted that I had to watch Sleeper and that it was such a hilarious movie. I didn't really get it. Question: If they have found that chocolate is the best thing to eat, why are they growing giant vegetables???

ANNIE HALL.
INTERIORS is a close second. It's devastating.

Crimes and Misdemeanors and Alice are real good.

He has two. And they'll both be set in London, like his last one. Guess he's going through a British period.
Next up: SCOOP
Plot Outline: An American journalism student (Scarlett Johansson) in London scoops a big story, and begins an affair with an aristocrat (Hugh Jackman) as the incident unfurls.

I don't remeber which one it wa,.but the film where he is playing cello in a marching band. Also, in Hannah and her Sisters when he converts to Catholicism and brings home a bag full of Christian things. A bible, a Crucifix, rosary beads, white bread.....cracks me up everytime. BTW, he went to Midwood High School in Brooklyn around the same time my mother did. He is a little younger than she is.
