Zelig

[Inukshuk67]

"Although Zelig's family lived over a bowling alley, it is the bowling alley that complains about the noise..." Yeah, that sounds like a line from a Woody Allen movie. :-)

The basic idea of Judaism really is to save as much string as possible

[kingarthurup]

AWESOME!... Thanks Hobbs... hadn't seen this since college in 84!

[tracteursassocies]

Hello everyone! Does anyone know what is the music at 4min30 sec in part 7 (when he becomes greek at a greek restaurant)? If it's a famous song, or generic style... I would love to listen more of this music. Thanks from Paris.

This movie is funny as H. I first thought it was a documentary when I 1st came across it on TV.

[nergvol]

Remember reading about this in Psyche class. LOL

[robbiejohnson2001]

[jullia1200423]

[Jonnybass7]

@jullia1200423 Amen! This Woody's masterpiece.

[Flabbyhabbybabby]

One of the best by Allen. Unique and hilarious.

[shaneu1]

This marvellous film contains one of my favorite movie lines of all time, and is heard in the segment displayed here: "On his deathbed, Morris Zelig tells his son that life is a meaningless nightmare of suffering. The only advice he gives him is to save string."

[FrauDoktorKloedner]

Whats the song in the beginning, when the woman is dancing? I know it fro somewhere...

[shaneu1]

@FrauDoktorKloedner It is, Frau Doktor, "The Charleston," or "Charleston." It is unclear whether the song initiated the dance called "The Charleston," or vice versa. It was probably the most familiar U.S. tune of the 1920's. I wondered which orchestra's version was used in the "Zelig" soundtrack. According to the IMdb, it is performed by Dick Hyman's orchestra. Mr. Hyman is a contemporary musician whose unerring reproductions of 20's and 30's classics are heard in many Allen films.

[halehale100]

3:50 - 4:50 nearly had me crying in laughter

[tonywallacess45]

@nzsodomy Not cool

[hellocarnatic]

Zelig is a true masterpiece. Unfortunately, it gets rated well below Annie Hall and Love & Death.

[jon1156]

One of the great things about Woody Allen's movies is that no matter how sophisticated the theme or how low-key and naturalistic the tone, they're always full of the corniest borscht-belt one-liners like the bowling alley joke in this clip. I love it.

[jiajia1314]

this is so nice and cute!

[swimgymnyc]

IMHO< not only Wood's best--- but THE BEST EVER!

Genius. Biting. Poignant. Telling. A technical marvel.

My favorite of ALL time!

[Greenleafff]

"Zelig" - a funny film and with depth at the same time. It's one of the best films I've EVER seen

Thanks for uploading!

[TomMSTie]

Awesome. This is one of my favorite Woody films. Thank you for posting it.

[mesmeridium]

Until Ken Burns came along, this style of documentary was firmly established as the haute couture by David L. Wolper.

Woody Allen carries this satire in the Wolper mode magnificently and you almost believe Zelig was a real historical figure.
