    Perhaps the example of Woody Allen at the top is more apt.

    The departure in style, theme, visual approach, and structural vision between early works like Sleeper or Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Sex and later films such as Match Point is dramatic. Then again, three decades separate those movies. Anderson still has time.

    What are the most important Woody Allen movies?

    I'm thinking:

    1977: Annie Hall 1979: Manhattan 1986: Hannah and Her Sisters 1989: Crimes and Misdemeanours 1992: Husbands and Wives 1993: Manhattan Murder Mystery 2005: Match Point 2008: Vicky Cristina Barcelona 2009: Whatever Works 2011: Midnight in Paris 2013: Blue Jasmin

    Have I missed anything?

    This reminded me of the film "Match Point" directed by Woody Allen. IMO his best film.
