Laugh every 20 seconds and you "pass" the test...

If I had to choose only one movie to be my all time favorite, this would be it. In fact, before I was married, I used to secretly "test" people I was dating and rent this movie and watch it with them. If they thouroughly enjoyed the film and also laughed at all the right moments, they "passed" the test. (Yes, my husband DID pass the test.) If they failed the test, they were a waste of my time.
In my opinion, the film is pure brilliance. It is witty and a wonderful characature of neurosis, men and women relationships, New York City, California, and the time it took place in. I love that Woody always has his character being with these very beautiful young women.
Everything about the movie cracks me up...from the waiting in line to see a film, the counseling visits, the subtitles for the male v. female thinking, the bug in the bathroom, the sprouts and mashed yeast, the children announcing what they will be when they grow up, the "universe is expanding" fear, the sneezing on the cocaine, the contemplating of the Kennedy assasination while in the bedroom...I could laugh every 30 seconds during this masterpiece.
Just please don't ask me to give Woody a grade for his personal life! That's another story! |
