Why did Woody Allen make Ross Douthat have Benedict Option thoughts? Check it out. Honestly, how does a man get to be 72 years old, and be so provincial, so ignorant of the world? You have to laugh, I guess....

Last week, we predicted that New Yorkers would defend Woody’s honor against the latest onslaught of fall films and keep Vicky Cristina Barcelona safely ensconced in the top ten. We weren’t entirely wrong. Though Vicky ’s earnings fell more than 35 percent, Woody Allen’s latest stubbornly held on in tenth place during its seventh week in theaters.

Nothing he's done since that time has matched the psychological depth and the seriousness of intent of...

The nice thing about sex is that it doesn't involve words. For the overly analytical and verbal among us, it can be a lovely animal respite from what Woody Allen called his second favourite organ, the brain. Try to describe it and look what you get: great efflorescences of purple tumescence, great efflorescences, in fact, of purple prose. Even when good writers try it – Norman Mailer and Sebastian...

For some, it's Citizen Kane, others La Dolce Vita, but it was Woody Allen's neglected 1997 film, Deconstructing Harry, that introduced me to the joys of grown-up cinema. It was probably the first film I saw where the protagonist wasn't...
