Woody Allen Marathon
Catch four iconic titles from one of the most hardworking American filmmakers in history.
Overview
Very few filmmakers, or indeed artists in general, are as prolific as Woody Allen. Since he first began making movies back in 1966, the New York native has released 46 films, at a rate of almost one per year. Of course, not all of them have been particularly spectacular — the less said about Curse of the Jade Scorpion, the better. Still, you don't break Oscar's record for the number of Best Original Screenplay nominations on quantity alone.
In celebration of Allen's incredible career, the team at The Astor Theatre are hosting a mini-retrospective, screening four of the writer-director's most critically-acclaimed films. The marathon begins with his 1973 sci-fi comedy Sleeper, followed by ensemble dramedy Hannah and Her Sisters, quintessential rom-com Annie Hall, and monochrome masterpiece Manhattan. It's $30 at the door for all four films, or you can pick and choose from $15.50 per session.
