So what happens when you go looking for evidence of sex crimes in Woody Allen movies? If you look, you find it, again, and again, and again.

Oh geez. Double face palm.
You in to reading tea leaves also?
Actually, I was a fan of Woody Allen when his movies first started coming out. They were a bit strange, but they were very well done.
But I think they got more twisted as his career progressed. And I think some of the later ones do reflect what kind of guy he was, or maybe turned into.
I haven’t gone back and watched any of them again for a long time, so I don’t remember exactly when it was that I decided—no more Woody Allen films for me.
who the hell watches woody allen movies???
I only liked the part in “Bananas”, where Howard Cosell gives the play-by-play of a military coup.
Jewish People? Film students? Critics?
What a world, what a world...
I was a Woody Allen fan also. I kind of liked the “goofy guy gets attractive girl through shared neuroses” themes. I was watching one when a friend came in and said, “this is all scewed up” or something to that effect, and I realized then he was right! Never looked at another Allen film.
Yes, people are neurotic, and yes it can be hilarious for a while. After a while, however, normalcy is preferred.
Bump
ahh yes, special interest groups... no conservatives i see
Who knows what happened or didn't happen that long ago. Not me. Is this what we talk about when the world gets a little boring and it is a slow news week?
I don’t care if there are tells in his movies or not, but I do believe he raped his adopted daughter, that’s something I care about.
It’s delicious, dude. This is not just anybody, this is the central intellect of the moonbat class, the hero of the pretentious and super hip. Without him there is no culture, is there?! What are we going to talk about now at our parties, at our discos, and our chic restaurants?
nevertheless, that was the funniest movie scene in ages!
In Annie Hall someone remarked that there had been some sort of crime On Oakland...at which woody remarked “I was nowhere near there”..or something to that effect
I didnt find that in the list...but I remember is as though I sas the film this evening
I can’t stand Woody Allen movies - they all have an immediate aversion factor for me.
That said, on a date in college I found myself watching one of his movies in a theater and saw the scene where the guy sneezes into the pile of coke...
I guess it was my... headspace... at the time (ahem)... but I laughed so hard I thought I was going to pass out.
/memory lane
i have never seen any of his movies so i tried to find the Cosell clip on youtube but couldn't, i imagine he prolly was funny though
And when all is said and done, can any of us really say we are surprised????
As a kid, I was a fan of his early movies, too, specifically “Take the Money and Run,” “Everything You Always Wanted to Know...,” and the movie in which he travels to the future. But, I was not a fan of the movies he made later when I grew up.
I don’t know if he’s guilty or not, but the fact that he was fooling around with his longtime girlfriend’s teenage daughter when he was a much older man sure does look suspicious.
