Annie Hall

Annie Hall is an Academy Award-winning film from 1977, directed by Woody Allen, who also plays the leading role and together with Marshall Brickman has written the screenplay.

Originally the film Anhedonia (anhedonia, the inability to have fun) are called, but this title was considered as unsalable and three weeks before the premiere changed toAnnie Hall. The title role is played by Diane Keaton, who previously had a relationship with all. The film can partly be considered an autobiographical film adaptation of their relationship. The name of the title character refers here among other things to: "Hall" is the birth name of Diane Keaton, "Annie" is her pet name. There are also many similarities between Woody Allen and his character, Alvy. Woody Allen has always denied that their relationship was for the film.
