There’s a lot to appreciate about Allen’s early satirical slapstick comedies, but in my opinion, it’s the least interesting phase of his career. They’re funny, but not as funny as his later works, and certainly not as thematically, visually, or narratively engaging. Nevertheless, if you’re looking for a good laugh, they’ll definitely provide that.

Woody Allen Fall | Film #15

“Don’t you feel like someone’s watching over you?” 
“Hate to break it to you, that’s the government.”

Allen and Keaton’s commitment to the bit needs to be studied. They are incredible in this, their physical humour is so good. Also cool to see they filmed this in my home state of Colorado. Many recognisable locations.
