"Annie Hall" is on right now. I have seen it so many times and I continue to watch it because it is timeless. I usually get sucked in because of Diane Keaton. I love her. If I could be any actress, it would be Diane Keaton. Her personality, her sense of style, her comedic flair, her dithery silliness. There are so many Keaton movies I love but I guess this is my all time favorite.
I love this song and I chose this scene because it's a poignant, wistful counterpoint to the comedy. Boy meets girl, they charm one another, boy refuses to commit, girl starts seeing psychiatrist, boy loses girl. There isn't a mis-step in this movie. It's classic Woody Allen. I have incredibly mixed feelings.about Woody Allen because of his bizarre personal life but, that's another post.

You're right, this is a great movie. I actually loved it the best until "Something's Gotta Give," I can smile just thinking about her crying scene.
Good pick!..She looks fabulous even now!. This gave me goosebumps!
i do like diane keaton bu i honestly dont know if i have seen this one...
I didn't know, or at least didn't remember this clip. She's unique. Fresh and true.
Diane Keaton is my Favorite!!!
It is record heat in Richmond today (up to 105 degrees!!)
Maybe that is why I was thinking Fall colors... whew :)
I agree with you on both counts. Love Diane Keaton. Conflicted (but mostly grossed out) with Woody Allen.
Woody Allen is a very very intelligent and very very bizarre man who makes very very good movies!
I always think of her in The Godfather films.
Diane Keaton is phenomenal. My favorite is "Something's Gotta Give".
Parking at the drive in. =) Brings back memories.
Hope things are easing up w/MIL.
And, Lord, that potato salad thing is something else. I had seen it in an e-mail awhile back. Still blows my mind.
She's got such a glow about her; she's gorgeous. I like this post, and I agree about Woody Allen. I can't get past his personal "issues" to enjoy his work.

Hi! C.G.,
Nice scene, but unfortunately, I have not watched this Woody Allan, and Diane Keaton, collaboration yet...(With "yet" being the operative word...Of course, being a fan of Film noir my favorite film (featuring Allan, and Keaton is)...Play it again, Sam...
Thanks, for sharing!
DeeDee ;-D
DJan & Tanna: I LOVE "Something's Gotta Give" but I can honestly say I'd have gone with Keanu.
Kalei: She does look fabulous now. I've always thought she looked divine w/o alot of facial restructuring. Either that or she has an absolutely unbelievably great plastic surgeon.
Brian: This is considered his all time classic.
Deborah: Well, it was a long time ago, 1977. sigh.
Otin: When you see her in "The Godfather" her face is so round. She looked so darn young.
Robin: She's just always funny and so very well dressed. I love her interviews. She's always just a bit ditzy.
DeeDee: I adore "Play It Again Sam". My husband and I love to quote Tony Roberts when he's leaving his phone numbers everywhere.
"If you need me, I'll be at Frozen Tundra 69290."
OH I used to be a Woody Allen fan but his screwed up PERSONALS really started to bug me!
ALWAYS enjoy this film.
I love these photos - especially the Early Morning Catch - that would make a good picture to hang on the wall.
