Overwiew :This spoof of the gangster/crime films of the 1930s marked Allen's debut as writer-director-actor. The film was shot as a pseudo-documentary about the rise and fall of one of America's most wanted - Allen's inept and unsuccessful thief Virgil Starkwell, who explains the benefits of a life of crime: 'You're your own boss, the hours are good and you travel a lot.' His embarrassed parents, meanwhile, hide their faces behind Groucho glasses during interviews. Hilarious gags include an attempt to escape prison with a gun made of soap that disintegrates in the rain.

Starring : Woody Allen, Janet Margolin, Marcel Hillaire, Jacquelyn Hyde, Lonny Chapman

Directors : Woody Allen

Producers : Sidney Glazier, Charles H. Joffe, Jack Grossberg


  Critic Reviews  Grade
www.film.u-net.com - : An early Woody Allen comedy, Take the Money and Run is anarchic, awash with one-liners and perhaps not quite as good as people would wish it be. Put together in the documentary style, the film opens with Virgil Starkwell (Woody Allen) being born into the world. A nerd from almost his first breath, Virgil constantly tries to fit in with his peers, with scant success. Even when they do give Virgil a break, their impulse is more often than not to set him up and smash his glasses.  more...  3/5
www.threemoviebuffs.com - : Woody Allen had written, acted and directed in films before Take the Money and Run. This was the first time he did them all on the same movie. The year was 1969 when Allen was 34.  more...  3/4
efilmcritic.com - : Very cheap, a little fitful here and there, but still one of the great comedies of all time and one that will have you laughing more often than not. I highly recommend ''Take the Money and Run.''  more...  5/5
