Synopsis: Hey, it’s a Woody Allen movie, which means you’ll probably see a bunch of white, neurotic, well-educated, upper-middle-class New Yorkers wandering the city and discussing their personal problems, and hear a lot of jazz in the background.
Blurb From the VHS Jacket: “Once again, Woody Allen has managed to combine deep poignancy with hilarious comedy.”
What Did I Learn?: Child molestation is a touchy subject. [That’s a quote from the film, btw]
You Might Like This Movie If: you're looking for a discreet and rather sophisticated method for making a sexual overture.
Really?: 1) Holy shit, take a drink any time Allen introduces, fails to develop and then discards a new character. 2) Wait, David (Sam Waterston in an uncredited role) meets Holly (Diane Wiest) and April (Carrie Fisher), and then attempts to romance both of them? They’re friends! They’re going to talk to each other! How could he possibly make that work?
Rating: Hannah and Her Sisters is a bit disjointed, and tries to tell a few too many stories with a few too many characters, but it’s an otherwise charming, intelligent, funny, and even poignant look at three women and the men who love them. Be sure to catch a blink-or-you'll-miss-him appearance by John Turturro. Highly recommended. 9/10 stars.
