Reviews
"Woody Allen’s Radio Days (1987) may have seemed rather slight and lightweight at the time, but it’s a film that has stood the test of time well. Its seemingly casual nature masks a film of some complexity."'—Ken Hanke, Mountain Xpresshttp://www.mountainx.com/movies/review/radio_days"Radio Days is among Woody's most masturbatory films, and that's sure saying something."—Bill Chambers, Film Freak Centralhttp://filmfreakcentral.net/dvdreviews/woodyradiodays.htm
"Radio Days (1987) is a pure nostalgic look back at Allen's youth listening to the radio, intercut with the glamorous lives of the radio stars. Another perfect mixture of laughs and heartbreak, it's one of the ones I can see over and over again."—Jeffrey M. Anderson, Combustible Celluloidhttp://www.combustiblecelluloid.com/classic/radiodays.shtml
