Miles falls for the beautiful, but untalented, poet Luna. But when Miles is captured and reprogrammed by the government, to believe he's Miss America, it's up to Luna to save Miles, lead the rebels, and cut off the nose-- just to spite its face.

Add a CommentNot a big fan of Mr. Allen and this movie reinforces that. But OK if you want way out and absurd for a laugh
An American classic slapstick movie of the early 1970's.. for some it's uproariously and knee-slappingly funny. Movie goers who are familiar with New York, esp Woody Allen's New York, with his Jewish comedy neuroses will do well; the movie holds its own nearly 40 years later. Back in the 1990's a NYTimes reporter wrote an article about a movie theatre owner in a small Texas city; the theater owner said Woody Allen doesn't fly in his neck-of-the-woods. And some of the time-dated humor with its references to 1960's and early 1970's real people will be completely lost on movie goers younger than their late 50's. For those old enough, it's a timeless gem. The 200 year old VW bug alone is worth waiting for; the Tennessee Williams play takeoff: incomparable.
I was glad to be able to get a few good laughs after a hard day.
This is another one of the movies that is on my list of "Weirdest Films Ever." Woody Allen wakes up in a future that is very bizarre and nonsensical and not really funny considering this is supposedly a comedy.
