I am indebted to that enterprising movie magazine LITTLE WHITE LIES, as they have ranked all Woody Allen's 46 films, with interesting comments on them, just as his new one CAFE SOCIETY is getting better than usual reviews here (My pal Martin "loved, loved, loved it".). The link is here: Enjoy!

I dashed to BLUE JASMINE which seemed his best in years, it was only after we realised the flaws in the script, but it was marvellously done, especially by Cate Blanchett. His London movie YOU WILL MEET A TALL DARK STRANGER worked for us too. 1972's EVERYTHING YOU ALWAYS WANTED TO KNOW ABOUT SEX amused at the time - Woody as the Fool, Gene Wilder and the sheep - but that extended sperm sequence may jar now, with that anti-gay jibe (Are there any gays in the Woody universe, apart from Meryl Streep as the lesbian ex-wife in MANHATTAN?)
Reviews of some of these at Woody label. Lets hope he, in his 80s, can keep turning out a movie a year for a while longer yet ...

Which school did you go to, dear boy? Obviously they didn't teach maths as you can't count to 10, (I found there were 13 films on that list). Otherwise, no complaints with the films included though I do think you need to seek out some of the 'lesser' ones. Have you seen SEPTEMBER and ANOTHER WOMAN, two of his greatest works imo?
ReplyDeleteANOTHER WOMAN is in my list above. Do pay attention.
DeleteIndeed it is. I am properly bitch-slapped.
