Annie Hall

a film by Woody Allen

In Annie Hall (1977), Woody Allen and Diane Keaton (born Diane Hall!) seemingly play themselves. Well, Allen always plays himself. At times, the movie looks like a documentary — a really good one though, with some multi-layer time travel and stuff. It has far too many absolutely brilliant quotes to pick one. Maybe Jeff Goldblum on the payphone: “Hello? I forgot my mantra!”

Something that Allen’s hero apparently fails to do is simply to tell Annie that he loves her.
