The Narrator (Woody Allen) tells us how the radio influenced his childhood in the days before TV. In the New York City of the late 1930s to the New Year's Eve 1944, this coming-of-age tale mixes the narrator's experiences with contemporary anecdotes and urban legends of the radio stars.

Movie Parental Guide

nudity Suggested Rating: PG-13 for Language, Partial Nudity, and Thematic Elements A group of young boys watch a woman undress in her apartment from a rooftop perch. She is seen nude from behind, dancing. A man and a woman begin to make love on a rooftop--the scene ends just as they're starting, and then begins again as the man pulls up his pants. A boy brings a condom to school for show and tell but does not know what it is. Played for laughs. A woman's date tries to get fresh with her in his car but is scared off before anything really happens.
violence A mobster is shot by another mobster. The shooter pulls the trigger but we do not see the impact. No blood or gore -- the scene is played for comedy. A man threatens to kill a woman and plans where to dump her body with his elderly mother. Again, played for comedy. A boy is frequently hit upside the head by his mother and father. He is whipped once (non-graphically) with a belt for misbehaving.
profanity Surprisingly little profanity. Maybe a few "damn"s here and there but nothing stronger.
alcohol Since the film is set in the 1940s, there is a copious amount of smoking. Almost all adult characters are seen smoking and a main character works as a cigarette girl. There is a fair amount of drinking. Mostly champagne and wine at dinners and celebrations.
frightening Nothing frightening, but there is a decent amount of time devoted to a news bulletin about a little girl who fell down a well and became trapped. The attempt to rescue her is suspenseful and ultimately tragic. We hear the report on the radio that the six-year-old died while trapped. Another intense scene is a part where a man and woman in a car plan to make out in a fog, when a radio dramatization of Orson Welles War Of The Worlds comes on over the radio, the broadcast itself is rather intense, but the scene however ends comically.
