Plot Synopsis
In Deconstructing Harry, Harry Block, played by Woody Allen, is a novelist who has managed to rack up three ex-wives, six psychiatrists and few, if any friends. His girlfriend, played by Elisabeth Shue, has just left him to marry his friend, portrayed by Billy Crystal. Unfortunately, Harry is going to be honored for his writing successes by the college from which he was expelled, and he wants someone to go with him. When everyone refuses, Harry hires a hooker, kidnaps his son and heads to the college.http://www.allmovie.com/work/deconstructing-harry-158645Reviews
"Deconstructing Harry' is abrasive, complex, lacerating and self-revelatory. It's also very funny, most of the time."http://www.variety.com/review/VE1117329532.html?categoryid=31&cs=1"This is in many ways [Allen's] most revealing film, his most painful, and if it also contains more than his usual quotient of big laughs."http://rogerebert.suntimes.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/19971224/REVIEWS/712240301/1023
