Sadly it would seem that Woody Allen's work has not worn well. Here in 'one of his serious ones' we seems particularly ill served with an assortment of characters who spout pretentious and unrealistic dialogue. Beginning with the interesting premise that a writer finds she can hear into nearby psychiatric sessions, this soon degenerates into a pastiche of overindulgent soul searching between a bunch of well off New Yorkers. This is not helped with having Mia Farrow indulging in her favourite role as the hard done by little lady (pregnant throughout too!) but gradually we tire of everyone as they complain about lives that don't seem real anyway. Mercifully short, this seems anything but.
