61. No, but I have wanted to buy a copy of Annie Hall for a while

Tue Feb 4, 2014, 01:33 PM

Feb 2014

Just never get around to doing it.

Recently, I saw "Play It Again, Sam" for the first time in a very long time. I don't think I'd buy this, so I'm glad it was on Netflix.

I enjoyed it (had a few belly laughs), but I did find him too whiny at times and the movie was a bit dated (although the idealized '70s San Francisco he portrays in this movie is a place I'd love to live in).

Among his other movies I would consider buying: "Crimes and Misdemeanors" (I loved Alan Alda in this), "Hannah and Her Sisters," "Zelig". I like some of his pre-"Annie Hall" movies but don't think I'd want to buy them. I also like some of his other films from the '80s but, again, not enough to buy them.

I really haven't had the time to see his films from the past couple decades.
