- In this interview from 1978, Woody Allen talks about Annie Hall, his early career as a TV writer and comedian, sending jokes to newspaper columns, the 1965 film What's New Pussycat?, his first film project and the odd requests he gets from fans. The 1977 film Annie Hall was a romantic comedy set in New York City and starred Woody Allen and Diane Keaton. It won four Oscars at the 1978 Academy Awards (50th Academy Awards) including Best Picture.
From 1974 to 2000, Canada’s Brian Linehan conducted thousands of in-depth interviews with the greatest actors and directors from over 60 years of film history. His programs City Lights and Linehan have not been seen since they first aired and are now available for the first time for licensing. Linehan, a stylishly gifted broadcaster, meticulously did all his own research and that, coupled with his knowledge and passion about film and filmmaking, puts him in a class all by himself.

I love the part of Annie Hall with the subtitles.
I watched Annie Hall in Italy and it was dubbed in Italian. The scene where they’re talking about photography, and there are subtitles showing what they’re really thinking of, in the Italian version they excised the subtitles. So all you heard was the conversation about photography, in Italian, of course. I’d seen the movie 100 times in the original English before, and so I screamed in outrage when I saw that they had removed the subtitles. They should have replaced the English subtitles with Italian ones, showing what they were really thinking.
The brilliance of this man is astounding. Comic genius.
Definitely
This statement can apply to Woody or Brian.
I’ve seen all his movies and have my favorites.Classic
Yeah I have been a fan for years ..the opening of stardust memories is brilliant ..and all of his other older movies just a lot of fun
Spellbindingly brilliant.
So great to see these being resurrected, it's awesome to see interviews (and very unpretentious ones) from the time when these great films were being made. Thank you Brian and co.
What a great interview.
I miss the 70’s.
You must be old lol
If we only knew at the time that it was as good as it gets - music, film, and arts wise.
@@johnperrigo6474 I know I did not yet; I was really having quite a good time most of the time. It was a taste of Heaven IMHO. Last decade too when things were of the old way. Things started changing in 1980 and everything was becoming plastic. Buildings were not being built with real wood anymore for one.
Margaret @John Perrigo I agree with both of you, and I grew up in the 80s and thinking that plastic world was “reality”. It wasn’t until my early teens in the 90s that I even found out about the 70s; up to that time I dismissed those years as a joke. But there was great creativity and exploration during that time. Pre-AIDS, pre-p.c. (meaning “personal computer” as well as “political correctness”), pre-24 hour cable news, pre-MTV. And yet, as the counterculture slowly crept into the mainstream after the war ended, both paradoxically ceased to be interesting. And now, here we are...
Great historical information about an artist's beginnings.
Wow, amazing interview
I think Woody got a raw deal with the Mia's accusations. Mia blew a lot of it out of proportion. He is still with Soon Yi for many happily married years. Obviously, the relationship worked. She is an adult and could have left him years ago. The Farrow household was craziness growing up Soon Yi says. And Woody never fathered a son with Mia Farrow.
I think she is cuckoo and implanted false memories to her daughter for revenge.
Mia is a decent actress, ironically, in mostly Woodys' films. But, when it comes to this other nonsense, I think she's batshit crazy. Woody Allen is a genius and is guilty of nothing!
@@foljs5858 She comes across nice in interviews but my mother thought she was kooky...and adopted all those kids?? She also tried to pass off the son as Woody's when he looks like Mia and Frank Sinatra.
Bitter bitch
👍👍👍
Thank you for this!
I miss young funny Woody Allen!!
Sleeper is a classic 😂
Thanks for posting these.
The best line in "Annie Hall" is delivered at the party at Tony Lacey's house, when one of the guests says:
"What I have now is a notion. But if I can get some money I can develop it into a concept, and then, later on, an idea."
nah... Its the eggs , dude. The eggs.
@@k.t.5405 That line is not funny in the least.
@@issues9828 Wuh? Still dont get it after all these years? We're ALL laying eggs, bud...If we're lucky, we'll find someone who cant live without them.
@@k.t.5405 What I hear you saying is that you don't know the difference between "I don't think it's funny" and "I don't understand it". If you don't understand something so basic then you're wasting my time.
@@issues9828 you dont appreciate the humor in someone depending on a person who thinks they're a chicken? Get outta town!
We need them eggs
I find myself reconsidering Woody Allen after recent revelations, wondering truly what he was all about.
He's a true artist and a national treasure. Don't believe the bullshit. Do watch his films, they're gems! Uniformly excellent.
Woody Allen is absolutely brilliant. Young people, don’t listen to all the crap that’s going on about him...because it isn’t true!He wouldn’t hurt a fly! The young people are missing so much not listening and understanding this lovely man!
Mia is a psychopath
Me too...I think he’s even greater than I used to
What recent revelations? Do you mean the opportunistic rehashing? If you want to know what he is all about, watch his movies - he doesn't hide anything.

I have my own thoughts about this.
Only 43 here
If you post facto de riguer quid pro quid caveat emptor sine qua non la dolce vita?
This interviewer is the inspiration for Martin Short's Jiminy Glick.... Wasn't that spider/Buick lead in totally out of place?! This man was famous for being loquacious.
And Brock Lineahan I think. From SCTV.
late 50s? he was in his 20s
Impute?
He finds writing jokes too easy, so he devalues it.
