1973 - Sleeper

I feel kind of lazy posting this because I have been watching too many movies and, for example, regarding Woody Allen, I watched 12 in a row and I felt completely not in right mood to sit here and to write everything I felt while watching them - although my view of Allen and all of his movies have changed a lot.

And I think it started right back when I watched this one, Sleeper, which is really fun and intelligent, I mean, it really is. You see, the thing is that Allen plays one of those idiots he is always playing (indulgent, dull, mean, lazy, etc.), and now he is at the verge of a revolution in a kind of sci-fi comedy-drama with the help of marvelous almost goddess Diane Keaton - whom I have only really discovered here, when she played Marlon Brando in A Streetcar named desire - really.

The fun part is that, similarly like other movies, Woody Allen can distort reality and the way people react towards framed responses, but, moreover, he can put almost anything in his movie and it works. I'm not getting into a lot of details here, I'm not that good to talk about comedy movies - that's for sure - but this is a true gem.

And if you want to laugh, here's the scene where Allen is trying to remember his past by playing Blanche from Tennessee Williams' play Streetcar.
