Movie review - "Love and Death" (1975) ***1/2

 This was really fun. For me it was the best Woody Allen film to date. The humour felt more grounded. It was about something - life of a man in Napoleonic era. Diane Keaton is given a bigger part and makes it gold.

Sometimes it's too gaggy - they go for gags over character. Sometimes too silly.

But generally very good. Looks great - I wish he hadn't stayed in New York for so long after this. The historical slant is fantastic. Some classic moments.
