welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’re
counting down our picks for the top ten
Woody Allen movies suddenly I’m on the
ten most wanted list he’s ranting
we’d better tranquilizing for this list
we’ve chosen the Woody Allen films based
on their critical acclaim originality
and fan popularity I move from mistrial
do you realize there’s not a single
homosexual on that jury number ten
crimes and misdemeanors I mean if you
want a happy ending you should go see a
Hollywood movie philosophical questions
and dilemmas have to be some of Allen’s
favorite themes to tackle really I got
so much good footage in I mean no even
though we just met I’ve taken an instant
liking to you and I to him
this existential film is one of the best
examples of this as he poses the
question of whether a person can live a
normal life
after committing a murder sometimes is
worse than worse than jail the story is
a terrific meeting of comedy and drama
while simultaneously presenting the
audience with serious moral questions
this is murder
you paid for it I engineered it and it’s
over alright so forget about it Allen
really took his time to perfect this
film bringing the actors back to reshoot
the whole first act after completing the
first cut first time I was inside a
woman’s when I visited the Statue of
Liberty crimes and misdemeanors was
later recognized with three Oscar nods
we define ourselves by the choices we
have made we are in fact this sum total
of our choices number nine sleeper
merging the genres of comedy and
science-fiction this film follows a
cryogenically frozen health food store
owner that’s woken up two centuries
later only to find himself in a dystopic
police state God’s sakes put yourself in
my position both a parody of sci-fi
works like HG Wells the sleeper awakes
and George Orwell’s 1984 as well as an
homage to Stanley Kubrick’s 2001 a Space
Odyssey sleeper was praised for its
humor slapstick elements and energetic
pace sex and death two things have come
once in a lifetime but at least after
death you’re not nauseous
number 8 Vicky Cristina Barcelona – your
summer in Barcelona no welcome shot on
location in three Spanish cities this
comedy drama was Allen’s fourth
consecutive feature not to be shot on
his native soil Vicki he called what who
wanted to do he called me just now Vicky
Cristina Barcelona centers on a sexy
love triangle
there’s square between a Spanish artist
two American women and his ex-wife
earning almost 100 million dollars at
the box office this romantic yet
melancholy film was a hit with critics
as well winning a Golden Globe for Best
Comedy and earning Penelope Cruz an
Oscar for Best Actress I wouldn’t be
upset about it you know I never want to
get in the way I wouldn’t wouldn’t upset
me at all I know you wouldn’t be upset
same way I get this warm feeling when I
hear you both looked and passion every
night number seven zelich Leonard Zelig
McGill inconvenient was suffering from a
mental disorder one of his more
experimental films this mockumentary
centers around a Leonard Zelig a man who
can adopt different personalities and
change his appearance to suit the people
around him I’m certain that something he
picked up from eating Mexican food
taking place in the 1920s and 30s
it follows Zelig as he gains fame for
being a human chameleon a closed meeting
of doctors listens as dr. fletcher
describes Zelig as a human chameleon the
satire also ties in Allen’s love for
psychology and analysis by allowing
famed psychologists and intellectuals to
analyze the character through color
commentary it certainly has a very
bizarre story meanwhile Allen utilized
old black-and-white newsreels and
intercut fake footage with some real
footage from the time period to give
zelich a more authentic feel resulting
in a genuinely funny touching and
original film picture read my latest
paper on delusional paranoia turns out
the entire thing is mental oops
suppose I tell you you’re not a doctor

movies I don’t know what they’re
charging you but those champagne bottles
are filled with gingery at the movies
kids okay I loved every minute of the
romantic fantasy comedy focuses on a
young lonely waitress who turns to them

more fantastical films this rom-com
tells the tale of a screenwriter who
realizes his relationship isn’t as
perfect as it seems after he discovers a
way to go back in time to Paris during
the 1920s and meet the decades most
famous authors and artists if I was to
tell you that I spent last night with
Ernest Hemingway and scott Fitzgerald
what would you say is that what you were
dreaming about your literary idols
quirky and gorgeous

neurotic but charming writer archetype
through the role played by Owen Wilson I

that contemplates life luck and much
much more
it’s luck it’s all luck I was lucky I’m
the first to admit I was a lucky bump
though critics were divided about the
black-and-white film it’s now considered
one of his best both by fans and Alan
himself what do you want me to say I
don’t want to make funny movies anymore
they can’t force me to I you know I
don’t feel funny I I look around the
world and all I see is human suffering

unconventional story of an older man
falling out of love with an underaged
girl but it’s also as funny as it is
sophisticated so you felt that you had
to run her over with a car do I look
like the type of person that would run
someone over in a car you know slowly I
was going with two Oscar nods and much
critical acclaim Manhattan also includes
the George Gershwin tune Rhapsody in
Blue
which only adds to the movie’s
timelessness
