I got into his films a few years ago, and still love them.

"Annie Hall" is just about the only romantic comedy I can stand- probably because it's the most realistic representation of an adult relationship that I know of.

How 'bout you guys?

Well, my absolute favourite is sleeper... come to think of it, it's got a bit of an aspie feel to it.

I watched Annie Hall because I needed to feel better about the film that beat Star Wars to best Picture. It was a lot better than I expected but I still think Star Wars deserved to win... I could be a bit biased though :)

I got the box set of his 7 earlier films and was surprised by how good they were - bananas, manhattan, interiors etc..

I didn't think I'd like the rest of his films due to 2 films that I didn't think were that funny. He's gotten really good over the years, he's even good with serious films. So yeah, I think now he's a comic genius. :hail:

Is it true Scoop and Cassandra's Dream both were terrible movies?
