Love, Sex, Death, And The Meaning Of Life cover

Woody Allen has carved out a unique place for himself in American movies, becoming our national auteur as well as the most prolific director in the country, and creating a singular world with each film he has released since his first movie in 1969. Foster Hirsch analyzes and celebrates that world in this expert study of the themes, visual style, and acting in each of Allen's films. With the addition of a new introduction and chapter covering the eleven movies Allen has made in the last decade, from Alice to The Curse of the Jade Scorpion, this is a vital book for Allen fans and students of film alike.

"A highly readable account." -Film Quarterly "This book on Allen is excellent: thoughtful, well-written and right about the movies." -Philadelphia Inquirer "Recommended to anyone who enjoys Allen's work." -Kansas City Chronicle"
