Hannah and Her Sisters Customer Reviews (1 - 3 of 26 Reviews)

You can find people crying loneliness!
One of the most ingenious and sarcastic films of Woody Allen about the decay and anxiety of a crowd of people in his mature ages who conform their world around three sisters :Mia Farrow (married with an unfaithful husband) Dianne Wiest (of visible neurotic character) and Barbara Hershey.

A very laughable but also meditative portrait of this existential micro cosmos, that reveals some insights about the style of living of certain ways of living. One of the most significative Opus of this brilliant director visibly influenced at those times (Interiors) for the Bergmanian elusive atmosphere.

Expressive, engaging, haunting and expansive story.


The Best Woody Allen Film!
I have seen this film numerous times, and decided to buy it so I could keep seeing it on and on. The actors of all ages are superb, beautiful NYC architecture, shot inside real NYC apartments, and the story is ingrossing. You won't be disappointed. This one has Woody in his usual hypochondriacal persona(probably the only aspect of the film I don't enjoy rewatching, but it's only short bits).

"I luuurve it, I loave it, I luff it",
This story of three sisters, their lives, loves, and struggles is delight from the beginning to the end. Along with three unforgettable women, Hannah (Mia Farrow, the eldest sister, a devoted wife and mother, a loyal sister to sensual Lee (Barbara Hershey) and artistic, neurotic and clueless Holley (Diane Wiest, a perfect match to Allen's characters), we meet their actors parents. Maureen O'Sullivan, "Tarzan's Jane", Mia Farrow's real life mother plays the flirting and drinking mother of three sisters. There are also three men in the sisters' lives: Elliot (Michael Caine), Hannah's husband who understands how great Hannah is but he is lusting after Lee, who is with a much older, wiser, talented but misanthropic and isolated artist Frederick. Here is also Mickey (Woody Allen) Mickey, the former husband of Hannah, a hypochondriac TV producer who lives in constant fear of death and tries to find meaning of life. All stories interweave effortlessly and seamlessly showing Allen's unique writing gift. As almost always in Allen's films, there are two important characters, his favorite place on Earth, Manhattan, NY and the music he adores. And as always, they add to the many many delights of this wonderful, sparkling, clever, ironic, sweet, funny and dramatic miracle.

Excellent!
