Front Row Classics is heading back to the 1970s this month. We're looking at the Best Picture winner of 1977, Annie Hall. This influential romantic comedy was a break through in modern movie making and still casts a giant shadow today. Flashback's Erin McCabe joins Brandon and Eric to discuss the many aspects of the performances, script and the complexity of viewing a Woody Allen film in 2021.
