Diane Keaton

Diane Keaton officially became Hollywood's "It Girl" when Annie Hall was released in 1977. I'm old enough to remember the look that became all the rage. Her look. Love it or hate it, everyone was wearing it.

Ms. Keaton does sing. She was in the original cast of Hair, singing "Black Boys."  In Annie Hall she does a sweet rendition of "Seems Like Old Times," which I'm choosing for my compilation. The song, like the film, captures the nostalgia and longing a battered generation grew to have for an era long gone by. Later in another Woody Allen film Ms. Keaton would make a cameo as a nightclub singer singing "You'd Be So Nice To Come Home To." And when Franco Zeffirelli was approached to direct a film version of Evita he said he would do it on the condition that Diane Keaton would star.
