Anything Else, written and directed by Woody Allen, debuted as the Venice International Film Festival’s opening night feature in 2003. After getting mixed reviews at first, the movie has since developed a devoted fan base.

It centers on Jerry, a young writer, as he navigates a turbulent relationship with his high-maintenance girlfriend, Amanda. While Jason Biggs is equally good in the role, Woody Allen’s portrayal of the seasoned writer imparting wisdom to him is exceptional.

Christina Ricci does a fantastic job portraying Amanda, bringing out the neediness and unpredictability of the character. Danny DeVito, Jimmy Fallon, and Stockard Channing complete the ensemble in this humorous examination of relationships and love.
