Description
The book presents profiles of all of Allen's films to date - from his debut What's Up, Tiger Lily?, through classic grotesques like Take the Money and Run and Sleeper, Oscar-winning films such as Annie Hall and Hannah and Her Sisters, to contemporary gems like Midnight in Paris and Blue Jasmine. It delves into the themes, plots, influences, and impacts of each, while also offering unique insights and behind-the-scenes details. The accompanying essays go beyond mere summaries of individual films. They explore Allen's working methods, the evolution of his distinctive style, personal and professional influences, and points of intersection in his filmography. Additional perspectives are provided by contributions from four authors on the role of music, Judaism, and philosophy in Allen's films and in specific phases of his filmography. This book, full of quotes, photographs, and production details, is a grand and loving tribute to the cult filmmaker.
