WOODY ALLEN (1935-)

Woody Allen

I’ve always liked Woody Allen more as a New York character than as a filmmaker. He’s made plenty of enjoyable entertainments. I seem to prefer the ones no one else likes. But can everyone please own up to the fact his recent “British” films are just plain awful? Talk about a fish out of water! Nevertheless, there’s always a few good zingers in every one of Woody’s films and that, as they say, ain’t chopped liver.
