The arc of Woody Allen’s career has taken many side roads, but Sweet And Lowdown could be the most un-Woody Allen of all of Woody Allen’s films. A fictional biopic period drama about a struggling jazz guitarist, it’s far from New York, it’s far from one liners and it’s far from Woody Allen. But the […]
Allen’s latest, Blue Jasmine, didn’t make it to Cannes this year. But the actor will return to the city in a couple of months to make his 2014 film. With the wrap up of Cannes 2012, we thought we’d revisit some old interviews with Allen at Cannes. We settled on a series of interviews from […]
It’s been an unusually quiet week in Blue Jasmine news, Woody Allen’s 2013 film that is released in just 8 weeks.

Speakeasy […]
Two articles coming out of Brazil have mentioned actresses that have been approached to be part of a new Woody Allen project. The reports have little information, but are interesting nonetheless (and it doesn’t seem to be an April Fool’s). Firstly the articles (translated by Google, so the bad grammar is not the site’s fault): […]

Blue Jasmine, Woody Allen’s 2014 film, has not even got a trailer or a poster, but at least one source has reported on the buzz around Cate Blanchett‘s performance. And that buzz has spread to the film itself. It’s our first opinion about the new film. Roger Friedman from Showbiz411 has this to say: The […]
Deconstructing Harry is one of Allen’s harshest films. Prostitution, kidnapping, infidelity, betrayal. Ironically, this is his first film after his deal with the cutting edge Miramax. There’s even casual use of the word cunt. But that harsh surface obscures some pretty astute comedy. But that comedy also covers up a by the numbers story. Woody […]
We came across another interesting supercut – fan made videos featuring many films – this week. It’s a supercut of varous insults and cursing from great films – 400 films in 5 minutes!
