By FRANK GILLETT OODY ALLEN'S MOVIES ARE instantly recognizable, and Crimes and Misdemeanors is no exception. Woody Allen writes, directs, and stars as Cliff Stern, a maladjusted, middle-aged neurotic in New York. However, the lead role is played by Martin Landau (Judah Rosenthal), an ag- ing opthamologist who's gotten in a little too deep in his infidelity. This is Landau's first appearance in a Woody Allen movie, along with Alan Alda, Anjelica Huston, Claire Bloom, Jerry Orbach, and Caroline Aaron. Also starring is Mia Farrow, whose presence is by now de rigeur for Allen. Crimes reminded me of TV sitcoms and comedy-dramas. Snappy one-liners drew Angelica Huston quick laughs from the audience, and there Woody Allen and in a scene from Crimes and Misdemeanors. was even a sight gag or two - I found it Much moral discussion occurs in some significant that most of the Judah's and clumsy family scenes; it's all done within a his rabbi's discussions about God and mo- Jewish context that is intriguingly different rality took place in the dark.
