  • Harsher in Hindsight: The falling-out of Mia Farrow and Woody Allen's relationship and the allegations against him make much of the movie, particularly where Cecilia is manipulated and abandoned by Shepherd, much more uncomfortable.
  • Vindicated by History: The film made money, but not enough to recoup its budget (falling $5 million short). It's been nominated for several American Film Institute awards since then.
