    • Trivia
      The reason Mia Farrow wears sunglasses most of the film is that Woody Allen did not feel she could pass herself as a tough Italian "broad", so he had her wear the sunglasses most of the film to hide her eyes, making her seem more sultry and mysterious.
    • Goofs
      In one scene, Danny can be seen walking past a movie theater, that advertises Q: The Winged Serpent (1982) and Halloween III: Season of the Witch (1982) on the marquee. However, the film is supposed to take place in the 1970s.
    • Quotes

      Danny Rose: You know what my philosophy of life is? That it's important to have some laughs, no question about it, but you gotta suffer a little too' because, otherwise you miss the whole point to life. And that's how I feel

      Tina Vitale: Know what my philosophy of life is?

      Danny Rose: I can imagine.

      Tina Vitale: It's over quick, so have a good time. You see want you want, you go for it. Don't pay any attention to anyone else. And do it to the other guy first, because, if you don't, he'll do it to you.

      Danny Rose: This is a philosophy of life? This is - it sounds like the screenplay to "Murder Incorporated".

    Did You Hear the One About Danny Rose?....
    A pretty funny Woody Allen comedy, in which Allen himself plays Danny Rose, small-time talent agent who finds himself falling for the mistress (Mia Farrow) of one of his clients (Nick Apollo Forte) when he has to pretend to be the mistress's date at one of his client's shows (it's a long story). Before long, Allen and Farrow are engaged in an escape from a gang of hoods that climaxes in a shootout in the storage warehouse for the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade. Allen is hilarious as usual, but Farrow is the one who impressed me with her acting here. I already knew she was a fine dramatic actress, but here she gets to show her comedic side, playing a brassy floozy with a Joisy accent and enormous glasses.

    The film is framed as a story one famous comedian is telling to a group of other famous comedians at New York City's Carnegie Deli, and the whole film has the patina of nostalgia for NYC that so often infuses Allen's films. Like "Manhattan," "Broadway Danny Rose" is filmed in black and white and looks fantastic.
