and then nothing turned itself inside-out.

Hannah and Her Sisters

(1986)

Three New York sisters in their late thirties experience all the drama that accompanies life in the big city. Woody Allen's success with films such as Annie Hall and Manhattan focus on the turmoil and exaggerated midlife excuses of relationships in a dense population. While the city of New York isn't the focus of the film, no other setting could really irk such hilarious situations of promiscuity and follow with cynical commentary over life from Allen. Despite the title, Hannah, the older sister, does not really play a large part in the film. Every other character - from the ex-husband, current husband, parents or the sisters - paints a picture of Hannah, using that imagery to justify their own actions. A very interesting example of people's ability to act based on assumptions.
