Everything from Annie Hall on is still good, but ironically, the "early, funny ones" haven't turned out as timeless. Although I do get in the mood for Love & Death every so often.
I watched it this morning. Nope, it isn't nearly as funny as I remembered. Expectations of humour and all, I guess. Plus enough pedo-related humour that was unpleasantly sobering.

I still own it as a completist but I never watch it. The following three once in a while, but it's just too "nudge nudge" for me.

Radio Days is the one film of his that I truly love. The Boss and I still will say, unbidden, "Haaawk, I heaah thuh cannuns roaahh."

It really is such a charming and affectionate comedy. Nothing cynical or moody, just a love letter to a time and place.

Definite classic. I just watched it a couple weeks ago. I love when the uncle goes to have it out with the communists next door and comes back convinced.

How about Sleeper or Take the Money and Run ?

Haven't seen either of those since maybe high school/college.

TtMaR is much the same style as Bananas, so probably not. Sleeper might be a better bet.

Apparently it was one of Kubrick's favourite films, which kind of surprises because, visually, it isn't technically distinct.

He saw references to how World War II was faked.
