News Bits! Our twice monthly round up of Woody Allen bits from around the web. The film world were saddened to hear about the passing of Christopher Lee, and so were we. He appeared in dozens of films we loved – from ‘Lord Of the Rings‘, ‘Hugo‘ and, our personal fave, ‘The Wicker Man‘. Despite […]

Irrational Man is the new film written and directed by Woody Allen. The official trailer has been released, and it’s time for our usual shot by shot breakdown. If you’ve not watched the trailer yet, you can find it here. But here’s the breakdown. Rhode Island looks lovely, doesn’t it. We’re haven’t identified the music […]
News Bits! Our twice monthly round up of Woody Allen bits from around the web. Singer/pianist Diana Krall appeared in a Woody Allen film. Thing is, she doesn’t remember which one. She spoke to the Guardian. Talking of New York, you’re a Woody Allen fan. Have you seen him play the clarinet at the Carlyle? […]
Woody Allen continues his film-a-year streak, and is currently scouting locations for his 2015 film (his 46th by our count). He has been spotted again, as has Emma Stone who is set to star. Allen was spotted at The Coffee Exchange in Providence. Along with Newport, this is the second city in Rhode Island where […]
Sharon Stone can currently be seen starring alongside Woody Allen in John Turturro‘s Fading Gigolo. She also got her start in an Allen film, with a role in Stardust Memories. She has worked with Allen a few times, including voicing his love interest in Antz. Yet she has never appeared in a film Allen has […]
In a clear sign that Magic In The Moonlight has definitely not been forgotten about, an ad ran in the weekend New York Times. The ad features, typically, almost no additional details – but we do find out a little about the crew. We have a couple of pics from social media: http://instagram.com/p/niZbOCjjku/ .@sonyclassics marketing […]
Our video of the week this week is our first to have almost nothing to do with Woody Allen. But it’s one of the funniest things we saw this week. It’s Diane Keaton on ‘The Tonight Show‘ with Jimmy Fallon. Keaton is out promoting her new book ‘Let’s Just Say It Wasn’t Pretty‘. She stopped […]
News bits! Our round up of Woody Allen bits from around the web. Diane Keaton is out promoting her new book ‘Let’s Just Say It Wasn’t Pretty’, just released yesterday. It’s a memoir focussed on “beauty, aging, and the importance of staying true to yourself—no matter what anyone else thinks”. Of course, she’s being asked […]
Don’t know about you, but we are very much enjoying Jimmy Fallon as the new host of The Tonight Show. Fallon, who appeared in the Allen film Anything Else, is a comedy encyclopedia, very much acknowledging the rich comedy history of ‘The Tonight Show‘. It reminds us of this video, which we are making our […]
The gang at Official Comedy have once again set their sights on Woody Allen. This time they’ve compiled a ‘supercut’ of every time someone says ‘making love’ in a Woody Allen film. And as you can imagine, there’s a lot of them. The thing about these supercuts and Woody Allen is he’s made forty something […]
Our twice monthly round up of Woody Allen bits from around the web! Olivia Wilde was asked at the red carpet of ‘Rush‘ who she would love to take a car ride with. She chose Woody Allen. Click through to the Independent to watch the video. We would love to see her in an Allen […]
Anything Else is a film that should work. It’s modern day New York, it’s modern day love with interesting and flawed characters. There is plenty of pretty great one liners, and the performances go from pretty great to ok. But it doesn’t work – and it’s because everything in show here has been done better. […]
More images have appeared of Woody Allen and his crew scouting for locations in France this week for his 2014 film. We assume this is in Nice (French readers can you confirm?). With Allen at all times is cinematographer Darius Khondji, who worked with Woody Allen on Anything Else, Midnight In Paris and To Rome […]
The excellent Flavorwire recently made this video, and it’s a lot of fun. With Woody Allen appearing less and less on screen as the years pass, Flavorwire has compiled all the Woody Allen surrogates into one video. Some are Woody when he was young (such as Seth Green in Radio Days). Others, such as Michael […]
