Hit & Miss, But What Hits Is Hysterical
An uneven early work of Allen’s, really just a series of sketches tied around the unbelievable popularity of the “sex” book “Everything You Wantedto Know About Sex, But Was Afraid To Ask” which in the early 1970’s was THE book in popular culture. Many of the sketches are too long and “peter” out, but ALL of them have very funny jokes and insight, but two of the sketches are classics and are as funny as anything Allen ever wrote: Gene Wilder’s bit where he plays a man who is destroyed after a certain “fetish” is introduced into his life and the last sketch, where they show the inside controls of a man’s body as he gets ready to have sex with a date: Burt Reynolds and Tony Randall help run the master control room. This is brilliant and clever. Some times it’s refreshing to just go back to Allen’s early, silly films like Sleeper and Take The Money And Run, even though the man has gone onto important funny films with deep dramatic throughlines: Crimes & Misdemeanors, Deconstructing Harry and Husbands & Wives.

When it works it works fantastically, and only a few times isn’t too funny
Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Sex is a success for Woody Allen if only for him being able to go through a whole host of satirizing that is always, if not hilarious, cleverly crafted and impeccably cast. Certain scenes I would mark as some of the funniest I’ve still ever seen from Woody Allen. But like a Monty Python sketch movie ala the Meaning of Life, you may or may not get all of the scenes consistently on edge and classic. But in terms of experimenting with form, it is one of the very best that Woody has come up with, at a time when he was making his “early, funny movies”.

The highlights for me include the climactic (err, maybe pun intended) end sequence showing the inner workings (with Tony Randall and Burt Reynolds present in the control room) of intercourse; the faux game show involving sexual questions (and yes, that is Regis Philbin) with a truly belly-laugh of a finale involving a Jewish mother; best is the Gene Wilder sheep scene, which was my favorite when I first saw the film as a kid. Interestingly enough, even when there are segments that aren’t as funny as the others (the sci-fi spoof with the giant boob, or the opening segment sent in medieval times), it does become a little more humorous in future viewings. One that really did become funnier seen in my older years is the foreign film spoof where Italian mixes with god knows what, almost dead-on spoof wise.

Is the film on the brilliance level of Manhattan or Deconstructing Harry? Maybe in spots, but on a very different level. I could almost see myself recommending the film to those who are new to the Allen filmography. It’s unpretentious, and very keen on the subject matter at the peak of the sexual revolution, something that might’ve inspired the ZAZ team for their Kentucky Fried Movie. Or, at the least, have wondered what it’s like when Wilder puts S&M garb on a sheep, it’s worth a viewing (some of his dialog with the sheep is a killer every single time I see it). Cute opening titles, by the way.
