Description:
Brimming with laughter, tears and subtle beauty, Hannah and Her Sisters is a magnificent 'summation of [Woody Allen's] career to date' (The New York Times). Winner* of three OscarsÂ(r) and featuring a brilliant all-star cast, Hannah and Her Sisters spins a tale of three unforgettable women and showcases Allen 'at his most emotionally expansive, working on his broadest canvas with masterly ease' (Newsweek)! The eldest daughter of show-biz parents, Hannah (Mia Farrow) is a devoted wife, loving mother and successful actress. A loyal supporter of her two aimless sisters Lee (Barbara Hershey) and Holly (Dianne Wiest), she's also the emotional backbone of a family that seems to resent her stability almost as much as they depend on it. But when Hannahs perfect world is quietly sabotaged by sibling rivalry, she finally begins to see that she's as lo st as everyone else, and in order to find herself, she'll have to choose – between the independence her family can't live withÂ...and the family she can't live without. *1986: Original Screenplay, Supporting Actress (Wiest), Supporting Actor (Caine)
Amazon.com essential video:
Considered by many to be Woody Allen's best film, even over Annie Hall. Hannah and Her Sisters follows a multitude of characters: Hannah (Mia Farrow), who plays den mother to her extended family; her sister Lee (Barbara Hershey), emotional and a bit of a flake, who's involved with a much older artist (Max Von Sydow), who treats her like a child; and Hannah's other sister, Holly (Dianne Wiest), a neurotic who feels incapable of managing her life. Hannah's husband Elliot (Michael Caine) falls in love with Lee, which sets off a series of upheavals. Allen gives one of his best performances as Hannah's ex-husband Mickey, who--much like Allen himself--is obsessed with death and unhappiness. But a simple summary doesn't begin to capture the warmth and intimacy of this movie; though the story follows a capsizing family, the outcome is surprising, joyous, and richly human. --Bret Fetzer

Hannah and Her Sisters is Woody Allen's third best film (Annie Hall and Manhattan are 1 and 2) I liked this film, it is quirky and touching. The best performance goes to Dianne Weist, she is such a natural, she's cute and refreshing in this film. Michael Caine is also good as well, I just wish Mia Farrow wasn't in this, she brings down the film with her sour facial expressions. Lovely romantic comedy for new and old fans of Allen's work.

I have not seen a lot of Woody Allen movies; he's one of those directors that I really need to research and dive into. I've seen `Match Point' and loved it, and I've see `The Sweet and Lowdown' and thought it was decent, but his classics like `Annie Hall' and `Hannah and her Sisters' had truly gone unseen by my eyes. Then last weekend I decided to look into some of Allen's films and I came across `Hannah and her Sisters'. Now, as a huge fan of Michael Caine, and knowing that he won the Oscar for ... Read More

It is OK movie to watch, but it is not among the best from Woody Allen.

It is impossible to truly describe the plot of this film because there are so many separate but interrelated stories going on at once. The primary story consists of sisters Leigh (Barbara Hershey) and Hannah (Mia Farrow) who share a common bond besides blood; Hannah's husband (Michael Cane) is in love with Leigh. It begins innocently enough with a casual flirtation over common interest and escalates into a full-on affair. There is chaos in the family too. Third sister Holly (Dianne Weist) is a recovering ...

Hannah and Her Sisters is considered by many critics (including Roger Ebert) to be Woody Allen's finest film. (My personal favorite is Manhattan, but Hannah is a close second.) It is a romantic comedy with dramatic undertones that tells the intertwined stories of Hannah (Mia Farrow ) and her two sisters (Barbara Hershey and Dianne Wiest). The film takes place over a one-year period beginning and ending with a Thanksgiving dinner party hosted by Hannah and her accountant husband Elliot (Michael Caine). ... Read More
