Y una noticia que nos coge muy cerca, pues se ubica en Valladolid. Ayer el director estadounidense Woody Allen hizo acto de presencia en la ciudad castellana para dar un concierto con su banda de jazz, lo que no sería noticia de cine, pero si comentamos que el director recibió, antes de dar el concierto, la Espiga de Honor de la Semana Internacional de Cine de Valladolid (Seminci), ya si que

Well, yeah I'm guilty about that one as well, unless I'm caught dead wearing a lampshade over my head after a few rounds of vodka… half-naked!

Egon Schiele-Junge MutterWoody Allen nel "GIUDIZIO DIVINO" scrive:...Sulla cresta dell'onda di un'autoesaltazione senza pari, in preda alla mia hubris in trentaduesimo, telefonai a Emily e le diedi appuntamento. Tre giorni dopo, sedevamo appartati in un cantuccio, nella penombra di quel ristorante polinesiano, e lei, dopo due o tre bicchieri, sciolse la lingua e mi raccontò le sue traversie con
Si fueran poco las críticas recibidas hacia Woody Allen por su última película rodada en Barcelona, Vicky Cristina Barcelona, con la que mucha gente le ha acusado de no ser un film con su toque personal y otros muchos la tachan de aburrida y soporífera... ahora llega una denuncia por plagio por parte de nuestro escritor español Alexis De Vilar, que en 1987 escribió la novela Goodbye Barcelon

CHICAGO – While legendary writer and director Woody Allen can’t always be equated with sheer genius these days and is more accurately described as a hit-or-miss proposition, the sorely undermarketed and film-festival touring “Vicky Cristina Barcelona” serves as unquestionable retribution for his recently questionable work.

Penelope Cruz says Woody Allen "couldn't care less" about the lesbian kiss between her and Scarlett Johansson. Instead, the director was more concerned about a mark on his hand while they were filming the scene for new movie Vicky Cristina Barcelona. The 34-year-old actress is quoted by Britain's Daily Express newspaper as saying: "He could not care less about our kissing scene. When we would
When I first discovered the joys of Woody Allen, ‘Interiors’ came as something of a shock. Where was the man who could effortlessly blend solemn introspection with great belly-laughs? Where was my Woody?

Woody Allen is a world class paranoid, claustraphobe, hypochondriac and filmmaker. Very little exists on his life apart from his films, which despite being quite autobiographical don't delve too deeply into his personal life which he does his best to keep private. I've only seen two documentaries based on Woody's life, the first, Wild Man Blues chronicles Woody as he tours with his jazz band thro

El legendario cineasta Woody Allen y su New Orleans Jazz Band se presentarán por primera vez en el Festival Internacional de Jazz de Montreal en junio, según anunciaron sus organizadores hoy a la AFP. Allen, de 72 años, quien se perdió una ceremonia de los Premios Oscars en la que ganó cuatro galardones por el filme "Annie Hall" para tocar en un bar con su banda, toca el clarinete desde los 15 años. Fanático de las grandes bandas de Nueva Orleans, Allen toca regularmente en el Café Carlyle en Manhattan, y en 1996 realizó una gira por Paris, Venecia, Barcelona, Atenas, Monte Carlo y Munich. En el festival de Montreal tocará en una única función el 30 de junio.
Quem já viu alguns filmes de Woody Allen deve ter reparado que, tanto o genérico como os créditos utilizam sempre o mesmo tipo de letra, em todos os filmes.Neste artigo, ficamos a saber porquê:« (...) Allen asked him what a good typeface was. Benguiat had an affinity for Windsor and suggested it to him that morning. He’s used it in every film since. »

Most writers are very protective of their words. I know I used to be terrible. I would fight tooth and nail over every comma vehemently, passionately, as if some nasty editor was setting about my children with a pickaxe. Nowadays I'm nowhere near as difficult. Part of the reason for that is that, as one would hope after all these years, I'm getting the hang of this writing lark and not making so many glaring mistakes. But if someone were to come along and suggest a major rewrite then they'd have a fight on their hands. I spend a long time on editing and making sure that exactly the right words are used, the very best words for the job in hand.I think I'd hate for a screenwriter to get a hold of anything of mine. That said, I'm a practical man so I'd sign on the dotted line (in blood if nec

Today’s “Other People’s Words” is both short and unconventional. It’s a quote taken from Woody Allen’s Manhattan, in which his misanthropic character beings to think about what’s good in life.
Technically, it’s the character Isaac Davis who says the line, but with it written by, directed by, and spoken by Woody Allen, I think the attribution is fair. Also, I left all the hesitation and stuttering in tact to make it hard to read—well, and to show the halting way in which he comes to the realization.
An idea for a short story, about, um, people in Manhattan who, uh, are constantly creating these real unnecessary neurotic problems for themselves because it keeps them from dealing with more unsolvable terrifying problems about the… the universe.
Um, let's see. Well, it has to be optimistic. Wh—alright—Why is life worth living? It’s a very good question. Um, well, there are certain things, I guess, that make it worthwh

At dinner tonight I was trying to list Woody Allen films that feature gay characters. This LiveJournal user says the only gay character he has ever seen is in Stardust Memories, which I haven't seen yet. One of the comments on that post adds that there's a flamer in Sleeper, which I can't recall at the moment, and of course there's Meryl Streep's lesbian couple in Manhattan. Are there any more?
I would say this is another sign of the Apocalypse, but this was 1969, so shouldn't it be here already? Maybe there's hope yet!! And a dope interview BTW.....word!!

This the question I have been asking my self since the last funfood mini meetup when everyone start to talk about Woody Allen and his quotes. Fortunetly, I read his biography tonight on wikipedia.
La actriz y directora Liv Ullmann tuvo una oportunidad que no desaprovechó , y en la ciudad de Nueva York hizo que se conocieran Ingmar Bergman y Woody Allen. Fue en una cena donde ambos ni cruzaron media palabra, simplemente se miraron admirados el uno al otro. Al final de la velada, a la hora de la despedida, cada director por su lado le dijo : Muchas gracias , Liv, por habernos presentado, es un genio.
Con motivo de la visita de Woody Allen a Barcelona; donde además de localizar los escenarios para su nueva película, va a recibir el doctorado honoris causa por la UPF. Quisiera recordar con ustedes este clásico y genial fragmento de su cuarto film como director, “Todo lo que siempre quiso saber sobre el sexo y nunca se atrevió a preguntar” Aquí encontrarán todas las respuestas sobre el funcionamiento de nuestra sexualidad.Espero que lo disfruten tanto como yo.
前几天随手抄起了本放置得铺满尘的Woody Allen文集，看了起来。这犹太小老头行为怪异，喜欢与养女结婚；拍戏有一手，普通人听了他的对白还要想几分钟才能笑出来；现在想不到他写得也不错，继承了他写剧本时的怪诞幽默。 N年前看一个摄影师的图册时，曾经看到过有一副Woody Allen的人像——上半身被拍到了照片的左侧最边缘，他眼睛低下来，感觉上好像受了什么委屈，还是被人排挤一样。现在，他的这本《门萨的娼妓》文集（集合了Getting Even, Without Feathers, Side Effects三本书）里的文章也给我这种感觉。还是看看这个神经质老头写的东西好，没压力。...

And boy does Woody Allen have it right…71-year-old Woody describes Scarlett Johansson, 22, as “criminally sexy” in an e-mail sent to Vogue about his Match Point muse, reports USA Today.“She is unlike anyone who has come before her, and while she is a much stronger actress in every way, there is a tiny bit of Marilyn Monroe in her zaftig humidity.”Here are a few more highlights from Scarlett’s interview with Vogue: * On singing praises about Woody: “I’d sew the hems of his pants if he asked me to.” * On having “fun” with Justin Timberlake: “We had fun together, but it’s not like the first time I’ve ever hung out with him. I think this happens because we’re both single and in the spotlight, and obviously Justin’s a very high-profile person.” * On her and Justin being an item: “Not true.” * On her break-up with Josh Hartnett: “I’d rather not comment on my personal life in that w
Woody Allen is famous for his funny witty humorous quotations. The following quotations are my favorite Woody Allen quotes. Have a look.
1. I was nauseous and tingly all over. I was either in love or I had smallpox.
2. The last time I was inside a woman was when I went to the Statue of Liberty.
3. To love is to suffer. To avoid suffering one must not love. But then one suffers from not loving.
"Match Point" is Woody Allen's best film in years for the following reasons: effective pacing, and unwavering narrative and philosopical clarity without predictability. A full review is unnecessary, since much has been written about the movie already (see Roger Ebert or the NYTimes). The movie succeeds because it is true to it's premises. First, Allen's latest is true to Allen. It is full-blown nihilism at its narrative best without needing to employ characters and situations too dark for an audience to relate. The characters are not good, but neither do they seem to be beyond those with whom one normally interacts. The central focus of the movie is life’s contingency or how luck determines our lives. With this focus, a predictable outcome would destroy an unpredictable movie. The movie stays true to its premise and the end does not disappoint. The other pitfall it avoids is allowing the winds of fate to blow the plot so randomly that it leaves the audience either lost or
