Dialogue about rape in the 1972 Woody Allen comedy, "Play It Again, Sam."

As I mentioned yesterday, I rewatched this movie, which I'd absolutely loved when it came out. The script is by Woody Allen, who plays an extremely nervous and clumsy man whose wife has left him, and he's desperately looking for love with the help of his married friend, played by Diane Keaton. As the title suggests, there are references to the love triangle in "Casablanca."

Much of this movie worked quite well for me today. I even got waves of full-body chills at one point — to my surprise. I thought, what the hell? How did they make that happen? Movie magic! But not long before that climactic moment, there was an awkward love scene that included some dialogue that I can't remember accepting at the time but must have been considered hilarious and that is totally beyond the pale today:

KEATON: Did you read that another Oakland woman was raped?

ALLEN:  I was nowhere near Oakland! Do they know who did it?

KEATON: No, they haven't a clue. He must be very clever.

ALLEN: Yeah,  you gotta have something on the ball to rape so many women and get away with it. 

He's smiling mischievously at that point.

KEATON: You know, I think if anybody ever tried to rape me, I'd just pretend to go along with it until the middle and then just grab a heavy object and let him have it... that is, unless, of course, I was enjoying it.

ALLEN: They say it's the secret desire of every woman. 

KEATON: I guess it depends on who's doing the raping.

She giggles and he laughs a bit shyly. Now, you could say, they aren't seriously talking about rape. She's really trying to say he should make an aggressive first move. But all the lines are really for us, the audience, and the intention is clearly that we will find the idea funny and intriguing: Is rape the secret desire of every woman?!

ALLEN: Well, why dwell on morbid subjects? Odds are, you'll never get raped.

KEATON: No, not with my luck. 

He looks like he's slowly processing the message, and she shifts to murmuring about how the drink is going to her head.
