Everyone Says I Love You (1996) is a musical film written and directed by Woody Allen. The film features many stars, including Julia Roberts, Alan Alda, Edward Norton, Drew Barrymore, Gaby Hoffmann, Tim Roth, Goldie Hawn, and Natalie Portman.

Set in New York, Venice, and Paris, the film features a rarely used device of having songs sung by ordinary actors not known for their singing. It was among the more critically successful of Allen's later films. The influential critic Roger Ebert once said that it was his favorite of all Allen's films, calling it simply "the best" (but also claimed that Match Point was his best film since Crimes and Misdemeanors [1]).

The film was nominated for Best Motion Picture - Comedy/Musical at the Golden Globes.

Songs seen on film

• All the performers sing in their own voices, with two exceptions: Goldie Hawn, who was told by Allen to intentionally sing worse because she sang too well to be believable as a normal person just breaking into song, and Drew Barrymore, who convinced Woody Allen that her singing was too awful even for the "realistic singing voice" concept he was going for. Her voice was dubbed by Allen-regular Olivia Hayman.

• The title song was written by Bert Kalmar and Harry Ruby, and was used as a recurring theme song in the Marx Brothers movie Horse Feathers (1932). Groucho Marx was highly regarded by Allen. Marx's theme song from Animal Crackers (1930) "Hooray for Captain Spaulding" is featured, sung in French by a chorus of Groucho Marxes.

• That song was reworked as "How Do You Do?" for Betty Boop in the 1934 cartoon, "Betty in Blunderland". Mae Questel, the voice of Betty as well as Olive Oyl, played Woody Allen's mother in the 1989 film, New York Stories.

• "Shall We Dance" by George Gershwin is a somewhat recurring song on the film, appearing more than once with different arrangements.
