I think his funniest is LOVE & DEATH, but his best three are CRIMES & MISDEMEANORS, MANHATTAN and HUSBANDS & WIVES. ANNIE HALL is great, but doesn't quite touch those aforementioned three for me. What do you think?
Favorite Woody Allen movies?

Love and Death, what I've seen of Sleeper, Annie Hall, Crimes and Misdemeanors...![]()
I avoid the dramas like a plague, however ![]()
Woody Allen. There's a name that draws two very different reactions.
Anyway for me it would be Love & Death, Crimes & Misdomeaners, Sleeper, and Bullets Over Broadway.
My parents recently moved to a house about a mile away from the Sleeper house! It's really cool.
Now that I think about it, I don't think I've ever seen a Woody Allen movie. Can't really think of a reason why not, just never been high on my "must-see" list. ![]()
Haven't seen em all, but Annie Hall was good.
I don't remember which movie it was (maybe Annie Hall?), but there was one where he got beat up by some bikers. His description: "Well, first I hit him in the fist with my stomach; then I smashed his knee with my nose." ![]()
Of course, he's not as funny now that he married his daughter. :\ohwell:
While I enjoy the old classics like "Annie Hall," "Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Sex...," "Love and Death," I actually prefer his more mean-spirited ones like "Stardust Memories" and "Deconstructing Harry." Plus, "Interiors" is a fantastic film.
to quote Ned Flanders " His movies are quite good except for that nerdy little guy who's in all of them."
Oh! Oh! Oh! I love Woody Allen!
Annie Hall Manhattan Sleeper
Oh it's too hard, it's like asking me favoruite New order songs. Better to ask which I didn't like...but I couldn't answer that either. Oh, Bullets Over Broadway was a bit no good. I really tried to like it because I love john Cusack and, as usual the castw as amazing but it was boring and I only liked teh guy who kept getting fatter and fatter. What's funny about "Don't Speak Don't Speak"?!

they are all good, but I think Sleeper is my favorite.
