this be an old fashion woody allen film ( in other word it funny ) . it get a much more coherent plot than any of his era with a much more conventional format . while i like the extreme silliness of these early star film and i also see this a a welcome change and his most personally engage film it really have a lot of heart . woody play a nerdy guy ( what else . ) who be obsess with humphrey bogart film . he love them so much that bogie himself often stop by to give him advice . these moment be wonderful and the actor imitate bogart be spot on . well and for some odd reason and his wife doesn not like woody and leaf ( gee and he sound like the perfect guy and huh . ) . his married friend and diane keaton and tony robert come to give him support and try to set him up with various lady ( none of which come even close to work out ) . however and over time and it become obvious to everyone except woody and diane that they would make a great couple . even bogie come to tell woody to make the move on his friend wife . well and here be where the plot begin to look more and more like casablanca a natural consider bogie in this film and too . well and i will stop my review here because i dont want to spoil the picture . it cute and coherent and well worth see . ps a great scene involve bogie have a showdown with woody ex wife . it a riot and though in general this movie have more subtlety and less laugh out loud laugh than his previous film but it all work together so well and it not a problem .
