Full Plot Details

Hannah, Holly, and Lee are adult sisters from a show business family, their boozy actress mother who still believes she's an ingénue that can attract any man she wants, despite still being married to the girls' father, Evan. Hannah, on her second marriage to a man named Elliot, a financial advisor, is the success of the family, taking a break from her acting career to raise her children. Everyone turns to her for advice, while she never talks to others about what she needs or feels. Her first husband, Mickey, is a comedy show writer and hypochondriac, who is going through a crisis as he mistakenly believes he will die soon without a clear belief, as a non-practicing Jew, of what will happen to him in the afterlife. Single Holly is the insecure flaky sister, a struggling and thus continually unemployed actress, who has just started a catering business with her actress friend April, in order to do something constructive with her life. In her own security, Hannah even set up Holly and Mickey together following her own break-up with Mickey, Holly and Mickey's sole date which arguably was the worst night in both their lives. Holly turns to Hannah for everything in her life, including money, despite feeling Hannah overly judgmental about her failures. It's during a catering job that Holly and April meet David, an architect, who seems interested in both of them. Holly's insecurities may threaten her potential relationship with David and friendship with April. Lee, who collects unemployment, is metaphorically the family's piece of clay waiting for the right artist to mold her. She has long lived with artist Frederick, who has contempt for everyone except her, and as such relies on her for whatever his connection to the outside world. This already complex collective becomes even more complex when Elliot contemplates telling Lee that he has fallen in love with her. His attraction to her is as much feeling unneeded by Hannah, who he does not want to hurt regardless of what he decides to do with respect to Lee.

Movie Reviews

The New York Times - 10/10 by Vincent CanbyAllen has infused it with wit, a superb cast and his usual "the best direction is the least direction" style.
Chicago Sun-Times - 10/10 by Roger EbertAllen's writing and directing style is so strong and assured in this film that the actual filmmaking itself becomes a narrative voice.
Associated Press - 10/10 by Dolores BarclayIs Hannah and Her Sisters, the 14th movie written and directed by Allen, worth the wait? No.
Times (UK) - 10/10 by David RobinsonAllen is one of the rare clowns with the gift of discovering the universal upon his own doorstep.
eFilmCritic.com - 10/10 by Erik ChildressPerhaps the best of the later Woody Allen projects
Common Sense Media - 10/10 by Renee SchonfeldBrilliant but mature comic-drama about an imperfect family.
Chicago Tribune - 10/10 by Gene SiskelThe marvel of Hannah and Her Sisters is just how many fully realized characters and relationships Allen is able to weave into the fabric of this extraordinarily well-written film. This script is one to be studied by aspiring filmmakers.
Los Angeles Times - 10/10 by Sheila BensonPerfection is boring, but boring is the very last word to describe Hannah and Her Sisters, which just may be a perfect movie.
Total Film - 10/10 by Philip KempThe film weaves a rich Chekhovian mix, full of wry insights into the fragility of human emotions.
People Magazine - 10/10 by Peter TraversThe usual fever of adjectives -- terrific, titanic, transcendent -- sounds puny.
