12 Questions for Woody Allen

WOODY ALLEN: A DOCUMENTARY

[justinherbert]

I worked on one of his films - he was a very nice man - very much at ease and communicated well with the crew and the cast. He treated everyone respectfully. In regards to the molestation charges against him, he was never criminally charged and the Child Sexual Abuse Clinic at Yale-New Haven Hospital, found Allen innocent. Also, Allen was able to adopt two infants with Soon-Yi. Both girls. You have to go through rigorous evaluations and background checks to adopt children, especially infants. Allen and Soon-Yi now have two grown daughters who seem to be successful and well adjusted.

"I believe there is something out there watching us. Unfortunately, it's the government." - Woody Allen

[FreakieFan]

This is literally one of my favorite interviews. The questions were really original and insightful

[matviyberezovskiy]

Does anybody ever mention that interviewer did his job very well?

[maccyd]

If I made Woody laugh like that, my work here would be done.

for years you couldn't get a syllable out of Woody..it's so great to hear him talk!

[mrtriffid]

I was born in 1954 and discovered Woody Allen about 10 years later. He was a major revelation then and remains an indelible part of my life!

[mahshidbozorgnia]

A great thinker, wonderful filmmaker, brilliant comedian and amazing writer. We are simply lucky to be able to experience his works and share his vision. At the end of his autobiography he says” Rather than live on in the hearts and mind of the public, I prefer to live on in my apartment”
He is the best!

I love woody Allen. I realized when I was younger, I didn't like him bc I didn't understand him and his movies. As i grow older, I start to watch his movies and interviews. The more I watch, the more I like this guy. I think he's a incredibly talented comedy genius. There's not one interview of him which I've watched I did not burst out laughing . His sense of humor is incredible. What a incredible man.

The one talent that I admire most about Allen's writing is coincidentally the same as I admire in Neil Simon. That being their ability to write dialogue. Their dialogue is absolutely genius in that they are witty while being completely believable that someone would be saying it.

I hang on each and every word. So utterly, utterly fascinating, so brilliant. This is another level of genius and comedic genius. In the field of comedy, there are a few names that reside on another level - so that, it you don't "get it", you dismiss him as an oddball. If you "get it", you experience the ecstasy of experiencing brilliance at a breathtaking level.
And as an elder, his mind is as quick as a Ferrari - as it's always been. Just breathtaking. And Mr. interviewer: 4 stars for you.

“I’m not that dedicated.”
One of the greatest filmmakers of all time said this!
He’s hilarious!

[fieldingm]

An amazing man, and one of the world's all-time artistic greats. Any documentary about him is worth seeing, but this particular one by Robert Weide is especially good.

[Federico]

78 years old and still sharp as a razor!

[Phpier]

The world without anymore Woody Allen films will be a very sad place indeed.

[actown]

One of the best Woody Allen interviews!! My favorite director. He's funny smart witty and made beautiful stories for cinema. The interviewer asked great questions especially the question about two scenarios of torture and whether he wants to give up sports or movies.

[plbeckman]

A genius. The greatest script writer ever.

[antoniatejedabarros]

"I would take the 2 years and forget the film" He's great!

[CuriousTeacup]

Those were interesting questions. The mere fact that they're different from the standard ones doesn't make them inferior. Celebrities get bored by being asked the same questions over and over again. I'm sure that was fun for him.

[lipranditoys]

A great comedian, a great writer, a great moviemaker. A great mind altogether.
