Film Synopsis: Opthalmologist Judah Rosenthal has had an affair with Dolores for several years, and now she threatens to ruin his life if he doesn't marry her. When his brother Jack suggests to have Dolores murdered, Judah is faced with a big moral dilemma: destruction of his life or murder. Meanwhile, documentary filmmaker Clifford Stern is trying to make a film of a philosophy professor, but instead he's commissioned to make a portrait of successful TV producer and brother-in-law Lester, who to Clifford represents everything that he despises.

Quotation on film: “Crimes and Misdemeanors may be Allen’s richest and most complex work to date. In it comedy and melodrama, violence and gentleness, ideas and entertainment blend into an exquisite whole.”
