A 1940 New York insurance investigator and the efficiency expert he despises are hypnotised into committing jewel robberies. Woody Allen and Helen Hunt lead a period detective comedy filled with jazz, hypnosis and romantic hostility.

After their divorce, a journalist and his former wife take very different paths through New York’s world of actors, models, television and fame. Woody Allen’s black-and-white satire stars Kenneth Branagh and Judy Davis.
