Diane Keaton's films and where to watch it online
Diane Keaton began her career on stage before making her film debut in the early 1970s. Her big break came with Francis Ford Coppola’s The Godfather (1972), where she played Kay Adams, the gentle but resilient wife of Michael Corleone, portrayed by Al Pacino. The role introduced her to a global audience and became one of her most recognized performances. She went on to reprise the role in The Godfather Part II and Part III. The franchise is currently streaming on JioHotstar and Amazon Prime Video in India.
Her true stardom, however, arrived with Woody Allen’s Annie Hall (1977). The film not only won her the Academy Award for Best Actress but also cemented her image as the quirky, intelligent, and lovable woman next door. Her offbeat fashion sense, ties, vests, and hats, became iconic and inspired a generation. Keaton once said that Annie Hall was special because it allowed her to be herself on screen. The movie is available on Prime Video.
Over the years, Keaton proved her range through a mix of dramas and comedies. She received three more Oscar nominations for Reds (1981), Marvin’s Room (1996), and Something’s Gotta Give (2003). In Reds, she played journalist Louise Bryant opposite Warren Beatty, delivering one of her most powerful performances. In Marvin’s Room, she starred alongside Meryl Streep in a moving family drama, while Something’s Gotta Give showcased her impeccable comic timing opposite Jack Nicholson.
However, Reds is streaming on Prime Video and Marvin's Room is available on the same platform.
Beyond these, Keaton charmed audiences with hits like Father of the Bride (1991), The First Wives Club (1996), and Book Club (2018). Her later years were marked by roles that celebrated aging, independence, and humour.
For those who wish to revisit her work, many of Keaton’s classics are available on major OTT platforms. The Godfather trilogy, Annie Hall, and Reds can be streamed or rented on Apple TV, Amazon Prime Video, and Fandango at Home. Something’s Gotta Give and The First Wives Club are also available on Prime Video, while Book Club can be streamed on Netflix.
