The best of the DIRECTV primetime lineup

Today’s Number One Film:

Picture courtesy PinterestAnnie Hall BEST FILM OF THE DAY, 7pm DIRECTV Channel. Watch this if you liked American Beauty, Conversations with Other Women or Closer. With apologies to Manhattan, for BC on TV and many others, this is Woody Allen’s finest film, and certainly the film in which he blends comedy, drama and penetrating insight most smoothly. A funny, entertaining film about a relationship breakup is also a film school compulsory, for everything from the rewinding of the film itself to settle an argument with Annie to the sub-titles showing what the actors really think. As groundbreaking as it is hilarious, this is an excellent work of art you can enjoy with popcorn. Directed by Woody Allen/ 1977/ USA/ Comedy-Drama/ 93 mins/ Rated PG.
