Synopsis

Sleeper (1973) is Woody Allen's science-fiction comedy, free to watch online on iFILM. Miles Monroe, a clarinet-playing health food store owner, checks in for minor surgery in 1973 and wakes up two hundred years later, thawed out of cryostasis.

The future is grim. A dictator runs the country, security patrols keep everyone in line, and a band of underground scientists revives Miles for one reason: he has no number in any state record, a man the system literally cannot trace. This bumbling guy in glasses turns into the most unlikely rebel imaginable. Along the way he falls for Luna, a spoiled society poet played by Diane Keaton.

Allen directed, co-wrote and starred, packing the film with silent-era visual gags: oversized vegetables, a malfunctioning robot butler, an orgasmatron. Eighty-four minutes of pure slapstick about one small man jamming the gears of a perfect society. Stream Sleeper (1973) online on iFILM.
