He points out that &#8220;every character is deeply wounded at some point, finds himself or herself on shaky ground, and fears the future&#8221;. However, given Allen&#8217;s structuring of the film to cover three consecutive Thanksgivings in the lives of Hannah and her family, we also see that &#8220;within brief periods of time&#8230; lives can change to a miraculous degree, people can mature&#8230;, [and] sad people can find the happiness that one year before seemed out of reach&#8221;. <\/p>\n<p>(As in his review for <a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/?p=26546\"><em>The Purple Rose of Cairo<\/em><\/a>, Peary&#8217;s overview of <em>HAHS<\/em> oddly contains quite a few spoilers, so I&#8217;ll refrain from quoting more specifics here about the narrative arc.)<\/p>\n<p>Peary points out that &#8220;Wiest, Farrow, and von Sydow stand out in the wonderful cast&#8221; (I agree); however, he notes that he wishes &#8220;all the characters were a bit more developed&#8221; &#8212; though it&#8217;s difficult to see how this might even be possible, given the limitations of such an abundantly cast, intricately overlapping script. Indeed, there are so many narrative threads interwoven across <em>HAHS<\/em> that one wonders at first how Allen will balance it all &#8212; yet everything eventually comes together, with all the characters&#8217; lives intersecting in decidedly &#8220;incestuous&#8221; ways (perhaps no great surprise). Peary concludes his review by stating that &#8220;having Mickey [Allen] convert to Catholicism, although funny, is overdoing it a bit&#8221;, but I disagree; several of the script&#8217;s laugh-out-loud visual gags come courtesy of this narrative jaunt (which feels entirely realistic, given the character&#8217;s literal soul-searching). <\/p>\n<p><strong>Note:<\/strong> It&#8217;s interesting to learn <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tcm.com\/tcmdb\/title\/77299\/hannah-and-her-sisters#articles-reviews\">how much of <em>HAHS<\/em> was apparently inspired by Farrow&#8217;s own life<\/a> (the film was shot largely in her NY apartment, included several of her actual children, and cast her real-life mother &#8212; Maureen O&#8217;Sullivan &#8212; as her on-screen mother). Being involved with Woody Allen to any extent seems like a guaranteed ticket to creative &#8220;exploitation&#8221;. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Redeeming Qualities and Moments:
