This is an off-the-cuff list, without much thought put into it. I'm not going to bother with explanations at the moment. If I find the time later, perhaps I will update and expand it.
The 5 Worst (so many to choose from in the last 10 or 12 years):
1. The Curse of the Jade Scorpion
2. Hollywood Ending
3. Scoop
4. Small Time Crooks
Three of my worst choices coincide with Emerson's. I remember really disliking both Husbands and Wives and Manhattan Murder Mystery when I saw them oh so long ago. I now have little memory of them (except that the handheld camera work in the former made me a bit sick) and feel they deserve a second look at some point before I commit them to the worst list.
The 5 Best:
1. Annie Hall
2. Manhattan
3. Hannah and Her Sisters
4. Crimes and Misdemeanors
That last spot was a tough call because I'm very fond of Radio Days and I think Vicky Christina Barcelona deserves a mention, and I really thoroughly enjoy Bullets Over Broadway and of course it's the one damn Allen film I can't get my hands on in Spain for some reason! But I think Deconstructing Harry is truly the better film.
