Bananas (1971) is director/actor Woody Allen's early anarchic slapstick comedy. It told the story of a nerdy New Yorker who became a South American rebel leader, to impress his political activist love interest Nancy (Louise Lasser). It was typically filled with many of Woody Allen's lampooning political commentary, visual set-ups and sight-gags, and witty one-liner jokes. Characteristically, the film was originally titled "El Weirdo." Its theme about the bloodless, dictatorial coup d'etat take-over of a country was similar to the plot of the Marx Bros.' Duck Soup (1933).
