ok, i fucked up the lemon sisters/godfather iii, but nobody was gonna vote for them anyway, right????

gershy, Friday, 6 April 2007 07:49 (eighteen years ago)

I love her in all the woody allen comedies she did. Probably if I had to choose, sleeper is my favorite. She was madcap in that one. And I don't just use the word madcap for shits and giggles mind you.

Her eighties streak (Shoot the Moon, The Little Drummer Girl, Mrs Soffel, Baby Boom, The Good Mother, hell, even Reds) constitutes her best work.

Yale: You know we have to stop seeing each other, don't you.
Mary Wilke: Oh, yeah. Right. Right. I understand. I could tell by the sound of your voice on the phone. Very authoritative, y'know. Like the pope, or the computer in 2001.

David R., Friday, 6 April 2007 14:51 (eighteen years ago)

how can i not vote annie hall though

I actually voted Manhattan, because a) I think it's a better movie, and b) her character is a little heavier, a really recognizable mix of insufferable pretension and yawning need. She the center of the movie, really, the perfect example of how otherwise smart people can train themselves to talk instead of live.

kenan, Friday, 6 April 2007 14:53 (eighteen years ago)

I dallied over Sleeper, voted Annie Hall, then wished I'd voted for Manhattan. Sigh.

I agree, and her performance in Reds is basically a retread, only more insufferable.

who here knew her real name is diane "annie" hall?

fact!

this list looks like its strictly acting (as opposed to directing)...?

Shakey Mo Collier, Friday, 6 April 2007 17:43 (eighteen years ago)

yeah she is actually good in play it again sam (it's been a while since i've seen it tho). but keaton's funnier in love and death and just generally so perfect in manhattan (which was my vote, l&d quotes aside)

ghost rider, Friday, 6 April 2007 17:44 (eighteen years ago)

cuz her episode of Twin Peaks is really great and very funny

x-post

Shakey Mo Collier, Friday, 6 April 2007 17:44 (eighteen years ago)

I just bought Manhattan and Annie Hall, hard to pick between the two. AH is funnier but Manhattan is more genuinely affecting.

Shakey Mo Collier, Friday, 6 April 2007 17:45 (eighteen years ago)

my favorite scene in "play it again, sam": when woody greets his blind date and he's so nervous he proceeds to knock everything in his apartment over and the whole time he's, like, weirdly grunting and finally she feels bad for him and tries to engage in some small talk and mentions that it's raining and he says in that goofy voice, "I love the rain. It washes memories off the sidewalk of life."

But that doesn't have much to do with keaton, so I vote Manhattan.

horseshoe, Friday, 6 April 2007 17:45 (eighteen years ago)

oh man i have to watch that again

ghost rider, Friday, 6 April 2007 17:48 (eighteen years ago)

that scene has never failed to make me literally lol and I've seen the movie at least 20 times.

I love the "I'm from Philadelphia" lines in Manhattan. I do that, too, which is kind of worrisome.

horseshoe, Friday, 6 April 2007 17:49 (eighteen years ago)

i say "i'm from philadelphia" with some regularity despite not being from philadelphia or ever having lived there

i think maybe a manhattan vs. annie hall thread is needed. (btw answer = annie hall by a country mile)

and um thats also my vote for you.

deeznuts, Friday, 6 April 2007 19:53 (eighteen years ago)

Manhattan's better than Annie Hall (which I don't like all that much though I wouldn't trade the east side tennis bubble and LA scenes for most things), but I don't remember much about her in it. The other female stars are kinda distracting, y'know? Also, she is currently insufferable-seeming.

gabbneb, Friday, 6 April 2007 20:37 (eighteen years ago)

wtf gabbneb you don't remember diane keaton's character in fucking manhattan

ghost rider, Friday, 6 April 2007 20:38 (eighteen years ago)

?!? she's the female romantic lead! She sits around mispronouncing allegorical and didactic!

Shakey Mo Collier, Friday, 6 April 2007 20:39 (eighteen years ago)

she's from Philadelphia

Shakey Mo Collier, Friday, 6 April 2007 20:39 (eighteen years ago)

her dachshund is a penis substitute for her!

horseshoe, Friday, 6 April 2007 20:39 (eighteen years ago)

Wallace Shawn really opened her up sexually!

Shakey Mo Collier, Friday, 6 April 2007 20:40 (eighteen years ago)

she isnt one-quarter as memorable in manhattan as she is in annie hall.

deeznuts, Friday, 6 April 2007 20:41 (eighteen years ago)

yeah, I think Annie Hall may be better role for her because it gives her more to do (and because she's the hero). I love Annie Hall, I just love Manhattan more.

horseshoe, Friday, 6 April 2007 20:42 (eighteen years ago)

her breakup scene with Yale in Manhattan = brutal (and funny!)

Shakey Mo Collier, Friday, 6 April 2007 20:43 (eighteen years ago)

annie hall the character is too damn cute! mary is so much more interesting!

ghost rider, Friday, 6 April 2007 20:44 (eighteen years ago)

fucking Yale, he's the worst.

horseshoe, Friday, 6 April 2007 20:45 (eighteen years ago)

girls are supposed to be cute, ghost rider. leave the interesting to the men.

deeznuts, Friday, 6 April 2007 20:46 (eighteen years ago)

well. I think she's supposed to be at least 50% really annoying in Manhattan.

horseshoe, Friday, 6 April 2007 20:46 (eighteen years ago)

how much of a rich smug asshole do you have to be to name your kid Yale anyway

is manhattan 'humor' or 'comedy'

and what, Friday, 6 April 2007 20:50 (eighteen years ago)

RIP Tony Yayo

gabbneb, Friday, 6 April 2007 20:51 (eighteen years ago)

um i think its very obviously 'humor', yeah? would anyone here upon recommending to a friend tell them 'its this great woody allen comedy!!'

deeznuts, Friday, 6 April 2007 20:53 (eighteen years ago)

Annie Hall[i] has the virtue of having only two real characters. There aren't enough sides to the characters in [i]Manhattan to make it very compelling.

Alfred, Lord Sotosyn, Friday, 6 April 2007 20:53 (eighteen years ago)

whoops, I went whack with the italics.

Alfred, Lord Sotosyn, Friday, 6 April 2007 20:54 (eighteen years ago)

that is crazy talk, regarding Manhattan.

horseshoe, Friday, 6 April 2007 20:54 (eighteen years ago)

which is, what i said?

deeznuts, Friday, 6 April 2007 20:56 (eighteen years ago)

the idea that it isn't very compelling.

horseshoe, Friday, 6 April 2007 20:57 (eighteen years ago)

Like that scene in which Yale is flinging every psychoanalytic cliche at Isaac and the latter responds with wise cracks. Since the movie's aiming for something beyond wise cracks (something beyond Interiors and Play It Again, Sam) that scene feels like a retread. He's still writing snark instead of dialogue.

Alfred, Lord Sotosyn, Friday, 6 April 2007 20:58 (eighteen years ago)

Diane Keaton and Mariel Hemingway are the only human beings in the movie.

Alfred, Lord Sotosyn, Friday, 6 April 2007 21:02 (eighteen years ago)

you just manage to be 100% wrong about everything, it's kind of impressive

ghost rider, Friday, 6 April 2007 21:02 (eighteen years ago)

Diane Keaton and Mariel Hemingway are the only human beings in the movie.

I don't agree with this at all - Allen in particular manages to create a pretty great, nuanced character and doesn't rely exclusively on dialogue to do so (the expression on his face in the final shot, him sitting around his apt thinking about Tracy, etc.) I think even Yale's wife has more characterization than you're giving credit for...

Shakey Mo Collier, Friday, 6 April 2007 21:24 (eighteen years ago)

What's nuance -- his rather queasy expression after Tracy's final admonition? A large part of the problem is that Allen is such a limited actor.

The ambivalence is better done in Annie Hall; at least it's clear that Alvy doesn't deserve Annie.

you just manage to be 100% wrong about everything, it's kind of impressive

Couple this with your talent for predictability and we'd have a great date. Have I seen you on the no-gay-friends thread?

ghost rider, Sunday, 8 April 2007 06:51 (eighteen years ago)

"cuz her episode of Twin Peaks is really great and very funny

x-post

-- Shakey Mo Collier, "

her episode of Twin Peaks is the worst episode of the series by a wide, wide margin. I guess if it's supposed to be a parody of lynch it's okay, but otherwise, NO. Granted she's not helped by the script and having to focus on James and mechanic's wife and all that shit

akm, Sunday, 8 April 2007 14:28 (eighteen years ago)

radio days is such a great movie. the radio ventriloquist!

s1ocki, Sunday, 8 April 2007 15:19 (eighteen years ago)

i actually got to watch woody film a scene from annie hall when i was a kid. i was so excited. he was one of my heroes. diane was there. i had the nerve to ask him for an autograph during a break too. he said: "sorry, kid, not while we're filming." i was a little bummed out, but it was sorta rude of me to bother someone while they were working.

scott seward, Sunday, 8 April 2007 15:28 (eighteen years ago)

more people voted for the first wives club than the godfather!

s1ocki, Sunday, 8 April 2007 15:31 (eighteen years ago)

that is awesome, scott! even if he said "sorry, kid" to you.
i watched manhattan last night and though i love her hair in it, i'm keeping my annie hall vote. also, that her character gets together with keanu in something's gotta give is pretty much the highlight of that movie.

rrrobyn, Sunday, 8 April 2007 15:36 (eighteen years ago)

Annie Hall the predictable but deserved winner, she's just perfect in it. My favourite bits are the photography discussion ("I don't know what I'm saying-she senses I'm shallow") and when she picks him up after tennis ("Oh well la-di-da") but there are so many. She's pretty good in anything though I think?

Ned Trifle II, Sunday, 8 April 2007 17:19 (eighteen years ago)

I've been sorta afraid of renting Looking for Mr. Goodbar. Anyone see it?

Richard Brooks writing and directing it is what scares me. Richard Gere looks HAWT though.

C'mon, they're both great as is she in them, but in Sleeper she does her Brando and gets to sing "Rebels are we..."

I watched Reds this weekend and I still like it lots more than Alfred does (aside from the dopey rom-com scenes in the first half).

Dr Morbius, Monday, 9 April 2007 13:08 (eighteen years ago)

she was hotttt

blueski, Monday, 9 April 2007 13:10 (eighteen years ago)

I could've seen Woody steal the Diane tribute at Lincoln Center the other night for $40 ...

I'm sure you've all, at one time or another, heard the term 'passive-aggressive'... I only mention this because every film I did with Keaton, I always wrote all the good jokes and all the good stuff and all the good scenes for me. When the picture came out, she was the funny one...she got all the reviews. So, you know, it's infuriating.

She called and asked if I would say some nice things [for this event], and I asked, 'What the hell do you want to be honored for?' Because I could never see the point of being honored; you sit there and there's adulatory things...you get bathed in obsequious adulation and all that garbage. But she liked that idea, and then I heard the desperation in her voice. So I said okay, Keaton is... Punctual? And she's... thrifty? What else can I say about her?

Dr Morbius, Wednesday, 11 April 2007 17:00 (eighteen years ago)

sometimes I think his friendship with diane keaton is the only thing keeping woody allen human in his late-stage toadiness.

horseshoe, Wednesday, 11 April 2007 17:01 (eighteen years ago)

What about his Knick fandom?

I put Goodbar in my Netflix queue. You better be right, Scott.

Alfred, Lord Sotosyn, Wednesday, 11 April 2007 17:21 (eighteen years ago)

He seems quite human, for better and worse.

Dr Morbius, Wednesday, 11 April 2007 17:25 (eighteen years ago)

I dunno, he got really mean circa Deconstructing Harry. I guess by human I mean likable.

horseshoe, Wednesday, 11 April 2007 17:25 (eighteen years ago)

and yes, his love of new york is another thing keeping him human.

horseshoe, Wednesday, 11 April 2007 17:26 (eighteen years ago)

LOVED the Harry meanness. Curdled later.

Dr Morbius, Wednesday, 11 April 2007 17:30 (eighteen years ago)

I mean, I actually worry about him, which I realize is ridiculous. I'm glad he has Diane Keaton in his life. /smurfy

David Edelstein in NY Mag on the Linc Ctr tribute... the quotes from her speech are kinda something.


Sometimes after the terror of acting passes, she said, you “do reach a beautiful plateau, you do discover a moment in time that does feel like it will live on forever.”

She sang a verse from “Seems Like Old Times” the way she did in Annie Hall, trembled audibly, then quoted a character in her underrated second feature, Unstrung Heroes, who says, “Documentation is key.”

“Looking at us then and looking at us now is all the documentation I needed to recognize that these encounters, no matter how fleeting, are all I know of heaven.”

Dr Morbius, Tuesday, 17 April 2007 15:09 (eighteen years ago)

I put Goodbar in my Netflix queue. You better be right, Scott.

last time I saw it was 15 years ago, but it's definitely a film you should see at least once. ending is reknowned and if you don't know what happens try to keep it that way.

speaking of classic scenes, wtf, not one vote for godfather II? "it was a son michael! a son!"

You've sold me--or at least you would have, if this film appeared to be available anywhere. Criterion Channel, Prime--nothing. I seem to recall it popping up on TCM every now and then, so I'll look for it.

I also remember my mom having the novel on her shelf back when I was a kid. The title would have meant nothing to me at the time, because had I known that there was something salacious about it, I definitely would have read it!

Not adverse, just willing to wait until things I want to see come my way (always having way too many things I want to watch helps keep me busy until these other things show up, as well).

Wasn't a particularly strong field, but I'm sure Keaton's Best Actress AA for Annie Hall that year was in part in recognition for Goodbar.

clemenza, Thursday, 20 October 2022 03:00 (two years ago)

he sexual revolution had become a commoditized, cynically co-opted wave of sex merchandising and lifestyle branding that exposed the unspoken lie behind the rhetoric of sexual freedom and liberation. The lie (or perhaps, the naïve hope) being that sex was not intimacy, human physical contact bore no psychological or spiritual consequence, and that we as humans were not profoundly affected by its lack. What led me to this conclusion was the odd phenomenon of getting a good look at the faces of all the high-profile hedonists of my generation. John Holmes, Marilyn Chambers, Hugh Hefner, Linda Lovelace...they all looked like hell. The average 1970s swinger, toward the end of the decade, tended to look like a hollowed-out pod person.

Diane Keaton would be the perfect Batman. I want to see a crossover - Batman Betelgeuse. Diane Keaten as Batman and Michael her brother in his old role as batteljuice

"Battlejuice" sounds completely awesome.

Also why are 80% of "Serious" 70's movies traumatizing to watch?

There was a market for cultural pessimism and unhappy endings that was indulged to excess.

The average 1970s swinger, toward the end of the decade, tended to look like a hollowed-out pod person.

That was a very good article. This phrase in particular makes me think of Gay Talese's 1981 book Thy Neighbour's Wife, a non-fiction exploration of the "sexual liberation" of the previous decade.

the first epsidoes of Karina Longworth's podcast of erotic thrillers of the 80s, goes into the tail end of the 70s and the post sexual revolution Hollywood fallacy.

They are unrelated.

henry s, Thursday, 20 October 2022 15:53 (two years ago)

It's Alex Keaton she's related to, not Michael.

Well I think they are probabl ydistantly related. they look similar

Keaton is not even his real name, but this is a pretty benign conspiracy theory so go on I guess

They both changed their names to stick it to theur real parents. they were separated at birth. Their real last naem is probably something like "Goldenbar" or similar.
They knew they had to fight for what was theirs - their parents were against their becoming hollywood super stars!
