...part as Annie's WASP mother, who exults in the ham she serves Allen. And then there is Keaton. She has never been much of an actress--perhaps the funniest scene she ever played was her dramatic revelation in Godfather II that she had aborted Al Pacino's baby. But in Annie Hall she is presentable enough as Allen's WASP counterpart; for once, she and Allen seem believably in love...
...overseen nationally ?but loosely?by the Commission, a dozen or so dons who usually, but not always, defer to the dominant boss in New York because he controls the most men and rackets.

Al Pacino in one of his lesser roles--lots of nice disguises, a crazed scene with Pacino caught in a door, and the crooks inside pointing a gun at his head with the complicity of the backup officers, more blood than a hospital. Which is, well, maybe your cup of tea--much better to see Serpico battling crooked cops than Clint Eastwood murdering everybody. But the bloody scenes alternate...
