One of the Best Romantic Comedies by Woody Allen
In San Francisco, the neurotic, awkward and clumsy film critic Allan (Woody Allen) that is a fan of “Casablanca” is left by his wife Nancy (Susan Anspach) that is tired of their boring life. His friends Linda (Diane Keaton) and her husband Dick (Tony Roberts) try to help him finding available acquaintances to date him. Allan is advised by his alter ego Bogart (Jerry Lacy) how to behave with women, but Allan is too weird and the women never go in a second date with him. Soon Allan finds that he is in love with Linda, but Dick is his best friend and he does not want to make a move despite Bogart advices.“Play It Again, Sam” is one of the best romantic comedies by Woody Allen in the beginning of his successful career. I saw this movie for the first time when I was still discovering Woody Allen and last time I had seen was on VHS on 12 November 2000 and I have just seen it again on a DVD recently released in Brazil. The neurotic Allan is hilarious and his discussions with Linda about neurosis and medicines, and his jitters with his dates are very funny. It is curious also to see the typical New Yorker Woody Allen filming in San Francisco. My vote is nine.
Title (Brazil): “Sonhos de um Sedutor” (“Dreams of a Seductor”)
Great comedy-drama
Great comedy-drama. A typical Woody Allen movie, except that it is not directed by Woody Allen (he did write the screenplay, and stars in it. Two outta three ain’t bad!).Like most of Woody Allen’s early movies, plot is fairly basic. However, like all of Woody Allen’s movies, it is the dialogue that makes the movie. Sharp, witty, all with the signature Woody Allen self-deprecation and neurosis.
Acting-wise, Woody Allen does what he does best – play himself. Diane Keaton is great too.
This was Allen and Keaton’s first movie together and the chemistry was clearly there. Five years’ later they would star together in one of the greatest movies of all time, Annie Hall.
