Allen has two major eras: comedy, and heavy drama. _Hannah and Her Sisters_ sits right in between.
There is a disjointed element here that keeps this from being a better film, and it's where the movie deviates from Hannah, and her sisters, to Allen's side story. I'd say that entire B story could be cut, but it does wrap up by the end.
Ultimately, I think the movie needed to focus more on the sisters or gear the story into the Allen, and Wiest characters coming together.
Still a great offering from Woody. Not his best, but I enjoy this era of his work so much.
It's no _Annie Hall_ (1977) or _Shadows and Fog_ (1992), but it's classic Allen.
Totally a recommend for all fans of his work. If you're looking for a romantic drama with some light humor thrown in, this is going to work for you.
