...matches Penns in intensity and sheer entertainment value. Her expressive eyes and Groucho Marx facial expressions make her the perfect foil for Emmets self-absorbed rambling. Its so clear that the two are right for each other that when Emmet totally fails to realize the value of Hatties unconditional love, we realize just how long it has been since one of Allens films has successfully depicted this emotion. Morton makes the most of the characters obvious comic possibilities, including her voracious appetite for both sex and food but also manages to infuse her with dignity.

Sweet and Lowdown marks Woody Allens thirtieth outing as a writer-director. This occasion makes it a worthwhile time to look back at the span of Allens accomplishments, a long list of movies that have inspired a love-him-or-hate-him divide among viewers. For those that fall into the first category, below is a list of five interesting but less-discussed Allen films that show both the range of his work and the consistent originality of his career (if youre new to Allen fandom, by all means start with Annie Hall).
