Woody Allen's Zelig is a funny and smart account of a fictional guy (as in most Allen films) who is a chameleon celebrity who blends in to whatever surrounds he has. More than humor, it shows how one struggles to be belonged in society and after being deemed a freak is bad. I found it funny as most Allen films (not the best but up there) with a nice touch. A+
