One of Woody Allen's most seemingly biographical films, Husbands and Wives opens with upper-middle class Manhattan couple Sally (Judy Davis) and Jack (Sydney Pollack) announcing to their best friends, the Roths, that they are splitting up. Gabe Roth (Allen) and his wife Judy (Mia Farrow) are taken aback by their casual revelation. Jack begins dating his dim, but sexy, aerobics instructor and Sally starts up a tentative romance with Michael (Liam Neeson). Gabe and Judy begin analyzing their marriage, discovering that they might not be meant to stay together. English professor Gabe begins a serious flirtation with a student of his named Rain (Juliette Lewis) and Judy begins to have feelings for Michael. Eventually, Sally and Jack reconcile, but have not improved their relationship. Gabe and Judy end up going their separate ways. Husbands and Wives was seemingly influenced by Ingmar Bergman's Scenes From a Marriage.~ Perry Seibert, All Movie Guide

One of Allen's best films, a clever and insightful examination of the insecurities and often self-destructive behaviour of couples, though the nervy camera-work irritates.

Husbands and Wives
This is Woody Allen peering at his navel interminably. I usually enjoy the humour in his films but this was intellectual torture. A very boring piece that ... read more »

Very Woody Allen
This seems to be the same old same old Woody Allen, probably very ground-breaking for its day but doesn't wear well. Hardly raises a smirk, let alone a ... read more »

Twenty-one years ago, the three most celebrated American filmmakers of their generation got together to make the anthology film New York Stories. Woody Allen, Francis Coppola and Martin Scorsese were born within seven years of each other (at 74, Allen is the oldest of the trio), and all New Yorkers. They’re also all still with us: this week Coppola is back with Tetro, his first solo original screenplay credit since The Conversation in 1974, and Allen returns with Whatever Works, a... Read more
