Line 23:
* [[Enforced Method Acting]]: Near the end.
* [[Genki Girl]]: Eden Brent is a giggly flapper.
{{quote| '''Helen:''' She's perky all right. She makes you want to sneak up behind her with a pillow and suffocate her.}}
* [[I'll Take Two Beers, Too!]]:
{{quote| '''Helen''': Two martinis, please, very dry.<br />
'''David''': How'd you know what I drank?<br />
'''Helen''': Oh, you want one too? Three. }}
* [[Ironic Echo]]: "Don't speak. Don't speak. Don't speak." Doubles as a [[Freud Was Right]].
Line 33:
* [[Omniscient Morality License]]
* [[One-Scene Wonder]]: Sid Loomis, played by Harvey Firestein.
{{quote| '''Sid:''' The monkey glands are working.}}
* [[Pre-Mortem One-Liner]]: " {{spoiler|Olive}}, I just want you to know one thing: you're a ''horrible'' actress."
* [[Reality Subtext]]: The running theme of the film is that a ''true'' artist has their own moral code. This is probably a rebuke by Allen to those who decried his affair and marriage to Soon-Yi Previn.
Line 42:
** Warner Purcell keeps eating... and eating... and eating...
* [[Sassy Black Woman]] / [[Servile Snarker]]: Venus.
{{quote| '''Venus:''' ''(to Olive)'' You better get in the mood, honey, 'cause he's payin' the rent. }}
* [[Show Within a Show]]: We get to see a lot of the play in various states of development.
* [[Throw It In]]: Olive thinks you can do this in a play. She claims it's ad-libbing, but it's completely inappropriate.
* [[Triang Relations]]
* [[White Dwarf Starlet]]: Helen, though [[He Really Can Act|She Really Can Act]].
{{quote| '''Helen:''' I never play frumps or virgins.}}
* [[Wide-Eyed Idealist]]: David Shayne is painfully naive at times when it comes to producing a play.
