Diane Keaton<\/a> was noted for playing smart Manhattanites on screen, most memorably as the title character in Woody Allen’s “Annie Hall.” But the Oscar-winning star, who died Saturday,\u00a0was equally at home on Long Island, where she made several appearances, including a couple at the former Book Revue in Huntington.<\/p>\n In 2014, Keaton came to the store and\u00a0signed copies of “Let’s Just Say It Wasn’t Pretty,” in which she wrote about beauty, aging and staying true to yourself. She came back in early 2020 to promote her memoir, “Brother and Sister,” dealing with her complicated relationship with her brother, Randy.<\/p>\n Pam Uruburu, of Bayville, a retired teacher who\u00a0also acts and writes, has\u00a0fond memories of meeting Keaton in 2020. “She was absolutely delightful,” Uruburu said.\u00a0“I told her that one of my favorite moments was in ‘Play It Again, Sam’ when Woody Allen says to her ‘You have more eyes than anyone I know.’\u00a0She just cracked up when I said that.”<\/p>\n Keaton also worked on Long Island, where scenes from two of her biggest movies were shot. Red Spring Beach in Glen Cove served as the setting for part of “Annie Hall,” where movie audiences could also get a glimpse of\u00a0the dock at North Country Colony. The beach no longer exists since the dock got washed away.\u00a0<\/p>\n One of the movie’s most memorable scenes \u2014 in which Allen and Keaton attempt to cook a lobster \u2014 was shot at a house in Amagansett.<\/p>\n Jack Nicholson and\u00a0Diane Keaton stroll the beach at Southampton in “Something’s Gotta Give.” Credit: Alamy Stock Photo\/TCD\/Prod.DB \/ Alamy Stock Photo<\/p>\n Southampton was the setting or Nancy Meyers’ 2003 romcom “Something’s Got to Give,” in which Keaton was part of a love triangle involving Jack Nicholson and Keanu Reeves. The luxurious beach house owned by Keaton’s character was located at 576 Meadow Lane, a street dubbed “Billionaire Lane.” The house was purchased by James Tisch, CEO of Loews Corp., in 2014 for $41 million.<\/p>\n The house also served as the model for a West Islip home<\/a> that was built in 2016. The couple who owned the house even had it built with the same kind of cedar shake material and a dining room identical to the one in the movie. In May 2024, it went on the market for $3.895 million and sold for $3.6 million<\/a> last October.<\/p>\n![\"Jack](\"https:\/\/www.newsday.com\/_next\/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcdn.newsday.com%2Fimage-service%2Fversion%2Fc%3AZmZjMTlmZTEtMWEwMy00%3AZDQyOGZlNDUtODEyNy00%2Fcopy-of-etkeatonli251012_photos.jpg%3Ff%3DLandscape%2B16%253A9%26w%3D768%26q%3D1&w=1920&q=80\"\/)
