“He was probably one of the beautiful people. He was probably dancing and playing tennis…” LOL!!

"The Zelda Fitzgerald Emotional MAturity Award"...One of the better illustrious putdowns!

"I gotta model myself after someone"

[@ariplatt8192]

Setting the scene with that skeleton quietly listening to the conversation is really just too good. A flash of brilliance by woody. It makes Yale’s BS seem so much more absurd

[@adamzanzie]

I gotta model myself after *someone*!

[@guyvanburen]

He’s not wrong. Sincerity is dead, killed by irony

[@wildcatso]

Perfect scene from a perfect film.

May this man live 200 years ,cause hes the biggest

[@spb7883]

The hold on the skeleton is a powerful move.

[@martm216]

Great scene - fabulous dialogue, some brilliant lines in there.

[@rosstheboss-q2f]

Some ironic little lines here. "You're too easy on yourself". "What are future generations going to say about us?", etc.

[@spb7883]

Ironic in the sense that the opposite foreseen reality came to pass, though not because it’s true.

[@kabooby0]

I've always thought this scene was a little awkwardly edited.

[@SomethingSomethingg]

I agree. It's like they didn't film this scene together but rather one person was speaking their lines to a camera and the other person was speaking their lines to a camera and made it look like they were speaking together

[@markdaniels7174]

@@SomethingSomethingg My thought exactly. The filmed all of Woody’s lines then all of Murphy’s.

[@spb7883]

Agree, though it doesn’t take away from the larger points Allen is making, not only about life existentially but about American culture in the late 1970s.

[@argylemanni280]

Supposedly Manhattan wasn't even supposed to be the kind of film it ended up being. Which is maybe Allen a little embarrassed at how much personal truth he put into this movie, or there's a few hours of a different movie that ended up in a dumpster. We'll never know, but certain editing choices do point to a film that was a bit cobbled together. Hey, Star Wars was saved in editing. It was the 70's, editors still had power.

If this was ad libbed it would be better. However it took 30 takes.

[@birsay123]

What did you do, meet for Sanka? That’s a little on the geriatric side
