description This paper discusses the ideological scope of Woody Allen's Hannah and Her Sisters (1986) in relation to gender and sexual difference within American postmodernism--the cultural phenomenon in which Woody Allen has been inscribed. The analysis uses a theoretical framework derived from feminist film theory and focuses mainly on visual representation and its enunciative process. More particularly, the analysis centres on the representation of women within the film as well as on its intertextual aspects, that is, its parodic allusions and references to other films, generic influence, and stardom. The final aim is to account for the unresolved ambivalence manifested in the representation of women in this film.
