i lie on banana and this be my favorite woodman movie . it perhaps the most accessible and mainstream early allen film . after woody wife split on him ( what take her so long . ) and woody turn to best friend keaton and roberts to help him back into the romantic saddle . bogie also appear flawlessly portray by lacy and attempt to assist woody out of his doldrums with decidedly mixed result . what eventually happen and along with the manhattan story line and suggest the woodman later real life escapade . of all of allen film this one for me have the most timeless moment and particularly involve his many date mishap . woody luckless character be part of a great comedic lineage that go at least a far back a bob hope and have be see as recently a george on seinfeld . a comedy classic .
