Really enjoyed this film. Woody Allen showed great balls in the writing and directing of this movie in my opinion. I loved things such as Allen's character taking brutually candid relationship advice from random people in the street as if they were his best friends, and characters weaving in and out of their childhood's while remaining in their adult forms.
His fantastic experimentation with breaking of the narrative and character's dialouge to one another was expertly disguised in a nice little romantic comedy, but these aspects of the film show evidence of genius directorial mind to me. Great characters as well, especially Diane Keaton who I liked here more than in any of the Godfather films.
Seems as though High Fidelity was highly, highly influenced by this film.
And to address the great debate, I do believe that this film deserved the 1978 Best Picture Oscar over Star Wars.
