Ce soir je me suis tap\u00e9 la com\u00e9die romantique par excellence<\/a>. Absolument sublime, je me demande pourquoi j’ai pas vu ce film auparavant. <\/p>\n

‘Give me a kiss’
\n‘Really?’
\n‘Yeah, why not? Why dont we kiss now so there won’t be all this tension between us and then we can digest our food better? So we kiss now, get over it, and then we go eat ok?’

Annie Hall on Wikipedia<\/a>:
\nThe film makes pioneering use of various experimental techniques such as split-screen imagery, double exposure, and breaks in character to speak to the camera directly, breaking the fourth wall. In one instance Allen’s character, standing in line with Annie Hall and listening to someone behind him expound on Marshall McLuhan’s work, leaves the line to speak to the camera directly. The man comes to speak to the camera in his defense and Alvy Singer\/Woody Allen resolves the dispute by pulling McLuhan himself from behind a counter to tell the man that his interpretation is wrong.
\n(…)
\nThe film is widely regarded as one of the best comedies ever made, is considered one of Allen’s best films and the first of what we now call romantic comedies.<\/i><\/p>\n
