great film absolutely, I just wished the lead actor (Owen Wilson ?) and the hilarious Michael Sheen had swapped roles. Owen, for me, didn't have enough comedic intensity, which Sheen has in abundance.

[@simonvandenostende]

ysgol3 I agree he isn't as comedic but Wilson is more neurotic, confused and basically the kind of Romantic writer type as Woody Allen himself

Annie Hall is one of the best movies of all time.

so whats your top 10 I think they had all mine. Celebrity is not a masterpiece but its pretty damn good and much better than Vic Chris. I can´t watch Love and Marriage just for what he did to Mia Farrow. Completely out of order. I don´t believe the child molestation charge but everything he did with Sun Yi was despicable. 1. Love and Death 2. Zelig 3. Bullets Over Broadway 4: hannah and her sisters 5. Annie Hall 6. Deconstructing Harry The rest are very good but not masterpieces, 7. The Purple Rose Of cairo 8. Crimes AND Misdomenors 9. Blue Jasmin 10. Celebrity or Broadway danny Rose

oops and Manhatten of course is top 5

[@nl3064]

@@TheNerdMan2 Ok, what the hell do you mean by "Love and Marriage"? That's not a title. At least get your title right. Also, Sun Yi was in her 20's at the time; He was cheating on Mia with Sun, so that was crummy, if that's what you mean. And I just posted my list on these comments, scroll around, I just posted it like 10 minutes ago. And Celebrity was ok, but Vicky was better, especially when you consider Vicky was original, while Celebrity was clearly a homage to La Dolce Vita (his second Fellini-inspired love letter after Stardust Memories, which was a send-up to 8 1/2).

[@seanhutchinson6722]

For me, Manhattan is his masterpiece, and I'll never forget the wonderful shock of seeing Jeff Daniels talk to Mia Farrow and then come down from the screen in The Purple Rose of Cairo. I was in a nearly empty cinema in Milan in 1985 when I watched it, and it was a real treat!

annie hall is not only the best allen Movie, its also one of the greatest Movies ever made!

[@Tigether]

"it reminds me of that old joke - you know, a guy walks into a psychiatrist's office and says, hey doc, my brother's crazy! He thinks he's a chicken. Then the doc says, why don't you turn him in? Then the guy says, I would but I need the eggs. I guess that's how I feel about relationships. They're totally crazy, irrational, and absurd, but we keep going through it because we need the eggs." That sole qoute made Annie Hall for me, it summed up the entire movie, it was passionate, it made sense, and frankly I think without Woody Allen quoting old jokes it would not be the same movie. Manhattan was amazing as well but something about that qoute pushes me over the edge for Annie Hall, Maybe it's because I relate? or maybe I just think it's a good qoute, who knows though right?

[@susanschaffner4422]

Woody's voice is unique. I've loved him since I was a teenager. Who else makes the audience laugh and think simultaneously. For frivolous fun I loved Manhattan Murder Mystery which no one ever mentions. For craft, Hannah, Annie and Crimes. For romance, Midnight on Paris.

Most critics and fans arrange Woody Allen's films (the ones that he directed) into categories of great, good, and minor. Woody's greatest films certainly include Annie Hall, Hannah and Her Sisters, Manhattan, Crimes and Misdemeanors, Bullets Over Broadway, Zelig, The Purple Rose of Cairo, Radio Days, Stardust Memories, Sleeper, Love and Death, Blue Jasmine, Midnight in Paris, Vicky Christina Barcelona, Deconstructing Harry, Interiors, Husband and Wives, Broadway Danny Rose, Mighty Aphrodite, Bananas, and Oedipus Wrecks from New York Stories. Then there are such worthy films as Match Point, Scoop, Take the Money and Run, Alice, Everyone Says I Love You, Everything You Always Wanted To Know About Sex* (* But Were Afraid To Ask), Sweet and Lowdown, Small Time Crooks, Whatever Works, September, Manhattan Murder Mystery, Shadows and Fog, A Midsummer Night's Sex Comedy, Another Woman, Celebrity, Hollywood Ending, To Rome with Love, Magic in the Moonlight, and Irrational Man. If you add films that Woody did not direct, Play It Again Sam, The Front, and Antz are very entertaining. Woody's minor films include You Will Meet a Tall Dark Stranger, Melinda and Melinda, Cassandra's Dream, Anything Else, and The Curse of the Jade Scorpion (Woody's personal choice for his worst film). There are a few of Woody's films that I have yet to see, including Cafe Society. Yes, I am a huge Woodyphile!

"I am a huge Woody Allen fan, although I've only seen "Antz." But I'll tell you something, what I respect about that man is that when he was going through all of that stuff that came out in the press, about how "Antz" was just a ripoff of "A Bug's Life," he stayed true to his films. Or at least the film that I saw, which, again, was "Antz." Thing is, I thought "A Bug's Life" was better, much better than "Antz." Point is, don't listen to your critics.

I like watching it but I even play it in the background like music. It does epitomize Woody Allen's personality and genius. I think it is appealing for nerds like me who spent years studying English literature and other humanities courses in post-secondary institutions.

Woody’s most recent movie was actually brilliant. Casting Wallace Shawn and Gena Gershwin in the title roles was smart. “Rifkin’s Festival” is worthy of Woody’s fans time. It’s really quite good.

Zelig is an astounding piece of filmmaking.

[@Mebeingcool]

Woody Allen, he is one of the best directors in the history of film. "Crimes and Misdemeanours", one of the most important movies ever made. "Annie Hall", one of the greatest movie ever made.

[@dojinho]

Good list and analysis. I would however swap the last two. Annie Hall was my favorite Allen movie for the longest time, but Manhattan surpassed it for me after I watched it a few times. The story, the photography, the incredible music of Gershin, the amazing New York backdrop, and above all, the wonderful acting by all characters make it my all-time favorite film.

[@alexis7386]

I think Match Point should be mentioned.

[@mikey1941]

When I'm asked, I always say that my favourite Woody Allen film is the one I'm watching at the time. I would never even attempt to come up with a top 10, because it would mean leaving off so many that I love dearly. Woody Allen is one of the great cinematic geniuses.

So it would be great to have another top 10 list "Another Top 10 Woody Allen movies"

[@Superfuntimejazz]

22. I love 22 of his films. Can't think of another artist who has so many wonderful works.

[@everettcarrigan-broda5254]

My favorite Woody Allen will always be Blue Jasmine. I've seen it 6 times.

[@KarinaBelkina]

I am in love with Midnight in Paris and Magic in the moonlight! Seriously! I'v watched it about 10 times and still love it!

[@SwaroopKodur234]

Match Point and Radio Days should have been on the list. Glad that Midnight in Paris and Purple Rose got mentioned.

[@reddevil820222]

1. Whatever works. 2. Hannah and her sisters. 3. Radio days 4. Sweet and lowdown 5. Annie Hall 6. Manhattan 7. Zelig 8. Midnight in Paris 9. Interiors 10. Crimes and misdemeanors.

[@tucopacifico]

Zelig and Purple Rose were truly original ideas that he managed to pull off back before CGI, and show what a great film maker he really is. Midsummer Night's Sex Comedy is an under rated but beautiful movie that is funny but deals with the possibility that there is an "unseen world" that science can't quantify, but I think his masterpiece was Manhattan...a basic love story. His older. "funny" movies don't hold up as well.

[@furryp2402]

"Take the money and run". First Woody Allen picture I saw. Love it.

[@rogeliolorenzana9941]

He’s a pedo

[@abrahamlupis9354]

​@@rogeliolorenzana9941 so what?

[@moniquelacosta5170]

Interiors was not mentioned. This is one of my favorite (Ingmar Bergman vibe) movies that I love. Hannah and Her Sisters, Vicky, Christina Barcelona, Husbands and Wives, Blue Jasmine and Midnight in Paris are tops!!! Play it again Sam with Woody Allen as actor is also a top favorite.

Great list! 'Manhattan Murder Mystery' is a definite favorite, as well. Happy 85th Birthday, Woody Allen! :-D

[@bellaf7774]

Took me forever to watch “Whatever works” and it is by far one of the most interesting and entertaining movies of his😅

[@amparonarbona5142]

'Hannah and her sisters' changed my life. I didn't expect to enjoy it as much as I did. It's one of the few movies that I gave 5 stars on Letterbox (sorry for my grammar, english is not my first language).

[@GasCityGuy]

Purple Rose of Cairo should have been top 3. It's one of my all time favorites. I'm glad Zelig made the list. Not his most well known but was brilliantly done. Also I would have had 'Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Sex' somewhere on the list. The final segment inside of a man's body is classic.

[@keykrazy]

GasCityGuy I like the section with Gene Wilder and the sheep even better than that final segment, myself. Classic stuff!

[@blehoo1]

Yes, so many brilliant moments including when the camera pans to very confused african american sperm - "what am I doing here"

Woody Allen directed, co-wrote, and starred in Annie Hall, Woody Allen directed, co-wrote, and starred in Manhattan, Woody Allen wrote, directed, and starred in Hannah and her Sisters, and Woody Allen wrote and directed The Purple Rose of Cairo. Leonard Maltin gave Annie Hall four stars out of four and Roger Ebert gave Annie Hall three and a half stars out of four the first time Roger Ebert reviewed Annie Hall, the second time Roger Ebert reviewed Annie Hall, Roger Ebert gave Annie Hall four stars out of four. Annie Hall won four oscars. Leonard Maltin gave Manhattan three and a half stars out of four.

Leonard Maltin gave The Purple Rose of Cairo three and a half stars out of four. Roger Ebert gave The Purple Rose of Cairo four stars out of four. Woody Allen has a lot more filmmaking talent than Woody Harrelson has acting talent, and Woody Allen has more self-conscious charisma in film acting than Woody Harrelson does in acting and can better portray likeable self-deprecation in film acting better than Woody Harrelson can.

[@Ratboy2004]

It's really hard to believe you missed Play it Again Sam...it was a play first and then a movie...with the same actors. How could you miss that one....

[@acousticshadow4032]

Tell 'em, Ratboy. Terrible omission.

[@maximilian9455]

my top seven 2018 1. Stardust2. Zelig3. Manhattan4. Broadway 5. Play6. Annie7. Sleeper

[@hongbenlow7216]

Finally!! I've been waiting so long for this keep doing on directors because that is all i come here mostly for

[@hongbenlow7216]

I have watched most of his films and agree with you that he is definitely a master at his craft. But seeing people recognizing his films just gives me a joy, knowing people out there might come across one of the many gems in cinema

[@thebestofmosdef]

Most of my favorite movies are either movies I consider masterworks of art (anything by Tarkovsky, Ozu, Bresson, Dreyer, et al) that I would only watch maybe once a decade, or go-to movies that I can watch dozens and dozens of times that aren't considered "great" films (Blues Brothers, Pee Wee's Big Adventure, Wayne's World). Annie Hall fits into both categories. It's a masterpiece AND a movie you can put on at any time and never get tired of watching. Quite possibly the most perfect film.

[@miltonmania18]

Broadway Danny Rose shold have featured in the top 10

[@tyjoseph]

I guess this gives me an opportunity to finally pick and acknowledge my own top ten WA films and compose a list which overrides any other lists here in the comment section and definitely the one in the video (Vicky Cristina Barcelona in top ten??): 1. Manhattan (biased - first WA film I've seen as a young boy) 2. Midnight in Paris 3. Deconstructing Harry 4. Annie Hall 5. Sleeper 6. Everyone Says I Love You 7. Magic in the Moonlight 8. Whatever Works 9. Anything Else 10. Mighty Aphrodite 11. To Rome with Love 12. Small Time Crooks 13. Love and Death 14. The Curse of the Jade Scorpion Sure, you might argue that there are 14 films listed instead of ten, but I'd say that this makes this top ten list even more accomplished.

[@janette280]

Scoop! is one of my favorite movies by Woody.

[@doggfacejr]
