How we cite our quotes: All quotations are from Annie Hall.
Quote #4
WICKED QUEEN: We never have any fun anymore.
ALVY: How can you say that?
WICKED QUEEN: Why not? You're always leaning on me to improve myself.
ALVY: You're just upset. You must be getting your period.
WICKED QUEEN: I don't get a period. I'm a cartoon character. Can't I be upset once in a while?
No, not in Alvy's version of reality you can't… especially when Alvy is imagining a cartoon version of Annie herself.
Quote #5
ALVY: I'm at the Los Angeles airport. I flew in. I flew in to see you. Hey, listen, can we not debate this on, on the telephone because, you know, I, I feel that I got a temperature and I'm getting my chronic Los Angeles nausea again. I don't feel so good.
This is a callback to the spell Alvy had at the hotel after he first traveled to Los Angeles and spent time with Rob in the editing bay as Rob added a laugh track to his sitcom. Alvy got sick, but the doctor couldn't find anything wrong with him.
Quote #6
ALVY: So, you want to get married or what?
ANNIE: No. We're friends. I want to remain friends.
ALVY: Okay. Check please!
Alvy cooked up this whole fantasy of what would happen if he made the grand gesture of going out to L.A. to bring Annie back to New York, but their meeting doesn't go down like that. At all. And when it's crystal clear that reality doesn't match his fantasy, Alvy gets impatient and frustrated.
