- Woody Allen's character (Mickey) on Hannah and Her Sisters goes through an intense existensial crises and then realizes something after an attempted suicide.
I find myself going back to this speech whenever I feel low, and it almost always helps.
Living your life is the best way to be distracted by it.
That was good insight. Wow. Thanks!
one of my favorite scenes of all woody allen movies. thanks for sharing.
this bit is good for the depressed..
somewhat spoke to me
Thank you Renee. I admire Woody Allan and the what wonderful things he had given to this world. He has given me the best thing a person can give to another person. Hope and humor. Thank you for being so kind to me and telling me about this. Thank you, Jane
You're welcome Jane! His art has definitely affected us in moving and beautiful ways
Basically find something that makes you escape from reality enough to put you in the right amount of denial.
denial of what? if you're distracted you're not necessarily denying anything, are you?
@@emiliozampieri6642 well put.
If anyone actually reads this please go listen to maybe you were right by the band you’ll live - it’s basically this monologue with a beautiful guitar track. It’s crushing and it’s perfect.
YEAAAAAAH BUDDY THAT'S WHY WE'RE HERE
don't worry, You'll Live!
Woody is the best thinker in the film business!
He's brilliant.
Maybe you were right - You’ll live
that's how I found my way here.
There's some definite skin in the game when it comes to this story -- at least that's what I always remind myself of when writing and editing my fiction. Woody is brilliant. One of my favorites is Crimes and misdemeanors...
I m exactly in this state of mind now..it's tragic and comic..how can I pass this crisis?
Polina Kiosenoglou me too brother, i think we just have to live for the moment ! :)
Films! I watch films constantly!
@Nicolasrayspike lovely explanation! This state of mind has also come and come for me in the past few months. Not sure there's a way to get rid of it, rather to just work through/with it. Immerse yourself in beautiful things, like this movie.
How you feeling 3 years later?
Am I the only one that came from OMENXIII's song?
Woody Nails it!
Mort Weiss ...as he usually does. Such an humble and incredibly brillant mind, a little bit like Noam Chomsky - but made somewhat lighter thanks to his unique sense of humor.
This is when the god talks...
Aleks Martini god talks if he shoots himself too?
A disappointing but all too predictable conclusion to his quest for God, in which Woody simply projects his own view onto Micky. Despite the dubious propositions and less than coherent decision he arrives at, none of it took away from what is clearly one of the best movies ever made. From the writing, plot, cast, casting, camera work, soundtrack and locations within the city this film blew me away the first time I saw it. It still does.
Concluding that everyone thinks they have the right answer, that likely no one does, and that we may or may not find out one way or the other, is not only NOT disappointing, it's incredibly insightful and the most honest position. For that reason, it's tremendously affirming and unifying, since we all share the experience of living and dying.
I think you missed the boat on this bit
Woody ,most people don’t even enjoy this wretched existence. Wage slavery, political oppression, social injustice, endless unfulfilled desires...we are living in hell, woody. Watching a comedy flick won’t make those horrors go away
I think in the case of the character he was playing in that movie, this was his epiphany, not anyone else's. It was his life, and his own crisis, based on the circumstances HE was experiencing, and he wasn't making a normative case for this being the pathway to enlightenment for all people; he was simply answering a question to the woman he was conversing with, who had asked him what made him drop out of life and how he'd come out of it.
Death to the CCP You´re damn right. The miracle is that only this very man has the capacity to help me live through hell. Such a profound sensitivity. Life would be just unbearable without him.
I honestly don't get Duck Soup. Yeah, it was amusing but man. That movie gets praised to high heaven and I just didn't think it was that funny.
