In 1975, Woody Allen released a film that would go on to become one of the most acclaimed comedies of its era.
His movie Love and Death has now been ranked among the "300 Best Movies of All Time" on Rotten Tomatoes. The film appears on the list with a 100% Tomatometer, placing it among the most celebrated titles ever included in the ranking.
Written and directed by Allen, Love and Death starred Allen alongside Diane Keaton in a satirical story set during the Napoleonic era. The film followed Boris Grushenko, a fearful scholar forced into the Russian army, as his life spiraled through war, romance and philosophical chaos.
What helps the movie stand out is its mix of literary parody, playful visual humor and quick, clever dialogue. It also manages to confidently lean into philosophical themes without losing its comedic edge. By weaving in references to classic literature and existential ideas, the story develops a more layered, sophisticated feel than a typical comedy.
That careful balance helped it appeal to casual audiences and critics alike. Its layered quality allows it to remain entertaining beyond the first viewing, still offering something new each time.
As a film that earned a reputation for being bold and non-formulaic, it has earned strong critical acclaim. Critic Roger Ebert praised it as Allen's "most ambitious experiment with the comic possibilities of film."
The movie has maintained such strong success since its original release. It was released domestically on June 10, 1975, and earned more than $20.1 million against a $3 million budget.
Decades later, its latest Rotten Tomatoes ranking highlights how well the film has endured. Even among hundreds of widely praised classics, Love and Death continues to hold a place as one of the most respected comedy films ever released.
