The scene in Annie Hall were Woody Allen finishes a piece to camera by slowly and steadily moving closer and closer towards the viewer, until his forehead is pushed up against the lense and his eyes bore through the screen at you. His heavy breathing causing condensation to form, engulfing the whole frame as he indistinctly mouthes one word repeatedly. Some people imagine he's mouthing their name. It's since been theorised that the whole sequence is a purposefully satirical, if misguided and unnerving, joke aimed at his fans who stop him in the street thinking, because of his on-screen persona, they're somehow friends. Or even at his counter-culture fanbase who may watch the film high and be freaked out by Allen suddenly speaking directly to them. Others say he's mouthing 'Zion'; they also say his breath mists the lense in exactly the same shape formed by the smoke from the twin towers...

Woody refuses to discuss it.
