Woody Allen, a filmmaker, actor and comedian all rolled into one, is among the most distinguished and unique personalities in the New Hollywood wave of auteur films. His creative career, which is spread out over six decades, has produced nearly 63 films beginning with the 1965 comedy What's New Pussycat?, where he took on the roles of both writer and performer. Allen’s films have a self-referencing and self-deprecating quality which mirrors his own timid yet intellectual brand of humour – as seen in Deconstructing Harry and Bananas. Allen also maintains a mature and introspective quality to his dramas, such as Annie Hall or Vicky Christina Barcelona. A recipient of numerous accolades such as the Academy Award, BAFTA Award, Golden Globe Award and even a Grammy Award, Woody Allen is a highly influential figure for filmmakers. On his 88th birthday, we have curated a list of his best films available on streaming platforms.
