Review of Manhattan Murder Mystery (1993) by Jeremy B — 13 Dec 2009
If Alvy Singer and Annie Hall had ended up together at the end of "Annie Hall" and decided to become a more neurotic version of Nick and Nora Charles, the result would clearly be Manhattan Murder Mystery.
It's a joy to see Allen and Keaton together again, and even if this movie is not quite the equal of some of their 1970s collaborations, it is still a lot of fun to watch them navigate this pseudo-Hitchcockian scenario.
The tribute to Orson Welles' "Lady From Shanghai" at the end of the film is inspired.
