CGiii Comment

It was nominated for 2 Oscars, it is in the Top 250 greatest films of all time...

Woody Allen at his most annoying...as a neurotic in New York.

Only for devotees of this little, nondescript man - who has all the allure of a mosquito.

The(ir) Blurb...

Isaac is a twice divorced New York writer with a 17 year-old girlfriend, Tracy, who has quit his job and is now afraid his upcoming book won't provide him with much of an income. It doesn't help that one of his ex-wives is also writing a book about their time together. He meets the somewhat pretentious Mary - who is seeing his married friend Yale - and he immediately takes a disliking to her. As they meet again however they begin to take an interest in each other and eventually fall in love. Tracy has a scholarship to a school in Europe and Isaac encourages her to take it, saying there is no future for them given the differences in their ages and the fact that he loves Mary. When Mary rekindles her affair with Yale, Isaac is left in the middle.
