The reason all the girls fancy him in the future is because he wrote, produced and directed the film. This was my favourite film when I was young. Especially the electric wheelchair scene. Try ‘Bananas’ next.

@kentclark6420 7 месяцев назад

My favorite scene is where they find that VW bug that's been sitting in a cave for 200 years, and he starts it right up.

@victorsixtythree 9 месяцев назад

Yeah, Woody Allen and Diane Keaton made several movies together starting with "Play It Again, Sam" (Woody Allen plays a guy haunted by the spirit of Humphrey Bogart/Rick Blaine from Casablanca who gives him dating advice). My favorite Woody Allen/Diane Keaton movie is probably "Love and Death" - a historical piece set in Russia during the Napoleonic Wars.

@TTM9691 9 месяцев назад

I can't believe it! I can't believe it!!!! Thank you, Dawn!!!!!!! You picked up on the silent movie vibe right away, that was his intention! Yes, he made a bunch with Diane Keaton. But he ALWAYS had great female counterparts. He made two or three with Louise Lasser (his first wife), and they're great together. And he made a whole bunch with Mia Farrow in the 80s and they're great together. But even though we all love those movies and those actresses, there's something extra special about Woody and Diane, they straddle his early "funny" period, and his second funny-serious period, both of which we love. But all three actresses are brilliant, talented and funny. "Love And Death" is the next one Woody and Diane did together and it's really funny.

@dr.burtgummerfan439 9 месяцев назад

So many great one-word movies. Bananas, Sleeper, Manhattan, Zelig Woody always incorporates his own real-life neuroses into his movies. Fear of technology, fear of automobiles (he's never had a driver's license or actually driven a car), his disdain for pseudo-intellectuals, his distrust of government... He always finds a way to reference them either overtly or subtextually.

@RossM3838 9 месяцев назад

Woody Allen has described his screen personna as Bob Hope with angst That remind me that woody Allen fans might enjoy some of bob hopes earlier movies. My favorites are the princess and the pirate, the son of paleface, the road to Morocco, and fancy pants. Woody has said that fancy pants is about his favorite movie of all time (outside of his obscession with ingmar Bergman)

25:15 - Wow, they actually got Douglas Rain, the voice of HAL in "2001: A Space Odyssey"!

@ericjanssen394 9 месяцев назад

Yes, a LOT of silent-movie vibes: Woody patterned his big glasses after Harold Lloyd's big nerd-glasses, and Sleeper was his tribute to Lloyd and Buster Keaton's silent slapstick...Especially when Woody is hanging by computer tape like Harold Lloyd hanging off the skyscraper clock. (Oh, and did those of us who'd actually seen "2001" notice that Douglas Rain, aka HAL, voiced the green computer in the operating room?)

When I was a kid in the 70's we got cable for a short period of time. I watched Sleeper 23 times before my parents got rid of the cable. It was my favorite movie for a long time. "Bananas", "Love & Death" and "Play It Again Sam" are more of his early hilarious movies.

@blueboy4244 Месяц назад

my early favorite is 'take the money and run'

@raymeedc 9 месяцев назад

When Woody Allen was saying “Stella.Stella”, you stated that you know that from a scene on The Simpson. That was a parody on the original film “A Streetcar Named Desire”, the film that made Marlon Brando a star. Great, iconic film, by the way 👌

That wonderful soundtrack from the Preservation Hall Jazz Band takes me back to the time I went travelling from Glasgow to as many places in the States I could in 6 weeks overland. In New Orleans, it was all bars and restaurants except for Preservation Hall. Instead of being all flashy lights, it was just an old living room with chairs and benches put down, and if they were taken, you just sat anywhere on the floor. The band came in and you would think they just let in a group from an old folks home. The drummer arrived using a zimmer frame. I sat on the floor wondering what I'd let myself in for, but the moment they started, this middle-aged man was like a toddler who just saw Santa Claus. Just so wonderul! Thank you for that memory I'd forgotten and you gave me back.

Explaining the McDonalds sign gag: Up until the late 1970s, McDonalds used to change the number on their signs promoting the number of hamburgers served. As the number went into the billions, they gradually phased this out and replaced it with the slogan "Billions and Billions Served". The signs shows how many burgers have been sold 200 years later if they had continued counting..

Another Woody Allen film you might enjoy for its' silliness/nonsense comedy is his 1969 film Take The Money And Run. It is a mockumentary crime comedy film that I showed to my brother and father and I enjoyed watching them laugh along with the film. I especially liked the line from the film: "....after 15 minutes I knew I was in love...and after 30 minutes I even gave up the idea of stealing her purse"...

@prenz1015 9 месяцев назад

Take the Money and Run is hilarious. Another silly comedy of his I really like is Bananas, about Woody getting caught up in a civil war in a fictional Central American country, kind of a spoof on Castro and Cuba. Just like Sleeper, it's silly but offers some funny social, political, and relationship commentary.

You're a rebel, Dawn. When I was growing up in the 70s, there were two writer/director/actor comedians who ruled the box office - Mel Brooks and Woody Allen. Lots of reactors on here do Mel Brooks reactions, but you're the first one I've seen do a Woody Allen reaction. Early in his career, his movies were more silly and slapstick. At some point he turned to more cerebral, poignant, adult humor. I prefer the older movies. I'd recommend Take the Money and Run for your next Woody Allen movie.

Diane Keaton & Woody Allen were a couple for a short time in the early 70s. In fact, the "Annie Hall" character was based on Keaton in real life. "Love & Death" is my favourite of the early movies and was next after this one. Other good early ones are "Take the Money & Run", "Play it Again, Sam", "Bananas" & "Everything you wanted to know about Sex, but were afraid to Ask". After "Annie Hall" Keaton also stared in Allen's classic magnum opus"Manhatten", as well as others like "Interiors" (A serious movie in the vein of his love of Ingmar Bergman) Then again in '93 for "Manhatten Murder Mystery", which is a good laugh. I'd recommend "Hannah & Her Sisters" as well, which has an excellent cast like Michael Caine, Max Von Sydow, Barbara Hershey & Mia Farrow. Less comical than the earlier stuff, but still full of one liners.

Well done, madame. I can't recall any other instance of a reaction to this film, one of the crown jewels in Allen's career and the height of Rip van Winkle-type satire, and I commend you for the effort (not that it seemed at all disagreeable to undertake). If you wish to continue with other gems from Allen's roster, I should like to suggest 1983's *Zelig* first and foremost, for two reasons: first, it was my introduction to Allen in the movie theater, and I saw it twice more during its run; second and more importantly, it is just an astounding piece of the cinematic craft. It's a "mockumentary" - and that's all I dare say about it without lessening the impact. Following that, I should definitely hold up 1966's *What's Up, Tiger Lily?* since it probably is the Woody Allen film that I have seen and quoted the most - many dozens of times. 1980's *Stardust Memories,* another dear to my heart, is his hilarious commentary on the travails that come with success at one's craft - namely, his own. And as for 1987's *Radio Days* - well, you just know a film is great when, at the conclusion, you're not yet ready to leave the people in it. 🤓

That was, of course, after a long trial and error process, leading to the conclusion that paprika just wasn’t getting the job done.

I'm very pleased to see you're reacting to Woody Allen movies. It's just like you pointed out, his humor is sometimes difficult to appreciate because he talks a wee bit fast and to top it off, the context of the references he uses for his jokes are often obscure. If you think about it, in that respect he is just like Groucho Marx--and I don't think that's by coincidence either. Of the many excellent fims by him, I firmly believe two of his best are Broadway Danny Rose (1984) and The Purple Rose of Cairo (1985). He wrote and directed these two films, but he appears only in the first. I hope you have the opportunity to laugh, love, and enjoy them both. Cheers t'ya!

I always had the impression that Allen's films always starred Allen and whatever woman he was dating at the time, at least through the 1990s. That's probably a caricature, but it was the way it felt at the time.

Into the early 90s pretty close. You had the Diane Keaton era and then when they broke up Mia Farrow was in pretty much all of them. He made some of his best movies in the Mia Farrow era despite her.

Being frozen for 200 years would definitely screw up your muscle memory and coordination, not to mention your faculties. Plus being cryogenically frozen is different than regular sleep.

Keaton and Allen are in several movies together. Including Love and Death, Play It Again Sam, Manhattan, and Manhattan Murder Mystery. I particularly like Love and Death and Play It Again Sam.

Woody Allen’s hair was part of his persona. He’s 87 now so not much hair left the cut.

14:51 Woody Allen has different types of films. Some are zany, wacky comedies that are not a million miles away from The Marx Brothers. You'd love those ones especially. Sleeper is one. And also *Love and Death* and *Play It Again Sam* are two more that are excellent.

@PGHEngineer 9 месяцев назад

Other Woody Allen movies id recommend are: "all you wanted to know about sex and were afraid to ask", "bananas!", "live and death" and if you want something very silly and very different "Zelig"

There is a 2018 (I think) film called A Quiet Place which is set in the future and it doesn't look white and sterile at all. But is is one of those post-apocalypse films where disaster has struck humanity. Not many laughs in that one but it did have the effect of making the cinema audience I was in become very quiet indeed.

@Ekkis25 9 месяцев назад

There is a movie set in the future that goes back to the past- "Westworld" it is a little scary and dark though. By the way your giggles make me chuckle!

The same year (1977) that 'Annie Hall' came out, so did 'Star Wars.' (As well as 'The Spy Who Loved Me, AND 'Smokey and the Bandit.' - it was a good year for film!). Those two films competed with one another at the Oscars, and 'Annie Hall' took home almost every award. I think you can fairly argue that both films changed cinema, but 'Star Wars' had the much greater, long-term impact. Another weird element that connects 'Star Wars' and Woody Allen and Dawn Marie: Dawn said she wanted to see a movie about the future where everything wasn't always so damn white, shiny and brand-new. That was precisely what George Lucas was aiming for with his Star Wars universe. (I understand that the Star Wars stories take place "a long time ago," and were never intended to connect at all with Earth or with our future. But, it's hard to think of a world with more solid 'strange and futuristic' details, hat also left the 'cold-white-antiseptic hospital look' far behind.

Ridley Scott's 1982 classic sci-fi film "Blade Runner" definitely did not have a sterile white look to it. It had a more dreary, dystopian environment.

I agree with everyone here, Woody's early comedies are great, especially films like Bananas and Love & Death (Countess: "You are the greatest lover I have known." Woody: "I practice a lot when I'm alone."). I love these. He works constantly, and he had a great period in the late 80's/early 90's with The Purple Rose of Cairo, Hannah and Her Sisters, *Radio Days*, *Crimes and Misdemeanors*, Shadows and Fog, Manhattan Murder Mystery, *Bullets Over Broadway* (my personal fave), Mighty Aphrodite, and Everyone Says I Love You. These nine films span the era 1985-1996, a 12-year period in which he released 14 movies. The 5 I did not mention are all worthy of the list as well.

I think Woody Allen made some exceptional films he directed but didn’t star in much later in his career. Sweet and Lowdown and Midnight in Paris are great films you could show to someone and not even mention they’re Woody Allen films.

@D.D.-ud9zt 3 месяца назад

He's earlier films are a snoozefest to me. He nearly killed his career trying to go back to that style in the late 90s early 2000s. Sleeper is okay as a light film but Annie Hall its not.

@rickcrane9883 9 месяцев назад

Howdy, Dawn Marie. Another Woody!!! Annie Hall is definitely his best but he has so many more good ones. You are one of the few reactors who give Woody a try. For that, I thank you. His humor is straight outta New York.

This film was originally supposed to be a 3 hour movie, with the first half set in the present day. If you do a double bill of Bananas and this movie you can make one yourself.

@denniseldridge2936 9 месяцев назад

OoooKayyy lol. This is one of those movies that needs a lot of explanation of the culture of the early 70s to get the most out of it, although it does stand on it's own without of course. Just a few highlights as I remember them: The times were all about experimentation with futuristic design of everything from building interiors to furniture to stereos and TVs. Thus you have the rather austere room layouts, which was a result of the minimalist movement of the time. And the wacky chairs, including the strange, thin one Woody falls off of. All in the name of "experimentation", a rejection of strict rules for artistic pursuits reaching back to the 19th century. You can at least partly credit rock & roll music for the rebellious attitude of artists and designers, although it all really got started in the late 19th century, as I mentioned. The sportscaster they commented on as being a punishment for criminals was one Howard Cosell, who was one of the first to become far more high profile than the actual games he was an announcer for. He had a very distinct voice which was imitated by every two-bit comic for decades. He also had the ignominy of being one of the very first to be canceled, in the sense we know it today. He was announcing a game and used an unfortunate word to describe the guy on the field who was running. It was never intended as a racial slur, and to be sure Cossel never had a racist bone in his body (he was good friends with many great black athletes), but the use of that word, 'monkey', caused the network to drop him. In the scene in which the green dot intones about a "successful cloning", we see a hark back to the great movie 2001, A Space Odyssey. You must watch that if you haven't already.
