Description
|
|
|
|
Neurotic, Jewish, funny, inept, loser—a man with problems, or so you would think from the characters he plays in his movies. And yet, his track record of writing and directing 34 films in as many years makes him one of the most serious American filmmakers of his generation. Allen graduated from television sketch writer to stand-up comedian to screenwriter and then director with Take the Money and Run. This concise, fast moving biography reviews such films as Bananas and Sleeper, romantic comedies Annie Hall and Manhattan, and later subjects that toyed with theater versus reality like Broadway Danny Rose and Hollywood Ending.
