Annie Hall: Screenplay

Halfway through, I knew I was reading a masterpiece. I saw the movie once about ten years ago, and I loved it. Some scenes have stuck with me ever since, and as I read, I remembered others. There were even moments I'd completely forgotten that felt like I was experiencing them for the first time. It made the whole experience amazing.

I've skimmed a few pages of scripts from some of my favorite films before, but this was my first time sitting down and reading an entire script. It was incredible.

It was a smart move by Woody Allen to cowrite the story with Marshall Brickman—it definitely made it stronger. I'd assume it also helped Allen grow as a filmmaker later in his career.
