    • Bananas
    • Sleeper
    • Love and Death
    • Annie Hall
    • Hannah and Her Sisters
    I loved all of these movies:agree:

    Bananas came out when I was a teenager. One of the funniest movies ever. My friend and I sat through it three times consecutively in the theater (in the days when you could do that) and laughed hysterically every time. Saw it seven times total way before the days of video. “Take the Money & Run” is my second favorite Woody Allen movie. Also remember seeing “Play it Again, Sam” with my dad, who was a huge “Casablanca” fan.

    I'm only a moderate Woody fan. Of the 5-6 I've seen, the two I enjoyed enough to see a second time were:

    Vicky Cristina Barcelona
    Wonder Wheel

    'Sleeper' remains a favourite one with Woody in it.
    In a strictly director role I enjoyed 'Match Point' very much.

    I didn't know that but I can see why.
    'Annie Hall' is great too though.

    Think maybe Diane Keaton steals the film.

    These two are also my favourites! I‘m a bit surprised that nobody mentioned „Zelig“ yet because I heard somewhere that it is a fantastic movie.

    There’s like a 12 dvd box set, look around I’m sure you’ll find it cheap. It got a drawing illustration cover.
