Annie Hall Scene Analysis

The purpose of the audio/subtitle disconnect displayed in scene analysis 3 was to connect the audience with the literal subtext of Alvy and Annie's conversation.  Although they were talking about the photographs that she had taken, the subtitles were relating the audience to what it really feels like to have what was is basically their first conversation with each other.

In the fourth scene analysis video, Woody Allen is mocking the social filmmakers of the 60s such as Jean Rouch.  Allen is using this mockery as a way for his character to cope with he and Annie breaking up for the first time.  This mockery serves as a device to include an objective view into other working relationships and also gives Allen the chance to poke fun which is a large component of his own comedy.
