(Woody) Allen Likes Playing Father to His Wife
Internet Movie Data Base ^ | 11/2/05

Posted on 11/02/2005 11:40:00 AM PST by jalisco555

Acclaimed director Woody Allen loves the paternal feelings he has towards his young wife Soon-Yi Previn, and insists the massive age gap between them defuses any conflict in their marriage. The 69-year-old sparked an international scandal when he split up with his long-term partner Mia Farrow in 1992 after falling for her adopted daughter. Allen later married Previn, 35, and the couple have two children. Yet, the Manhattan filmmaker is unabashed when he admits that his relationship with Previn is paternal and he enjoys the power his successful life gives him in their relationship. He says, "(Our marriage) has a more paternal feeling to it... I love to do things to make her happy. She loves to do things to make me happy." Despite the controversy it caused, Allen has come to view Farrow's discovery of his nude photographs of Previn as "one of the great pieces of luck in my life". He adds, "All the women I went out with were basically my age. Now, here, it just works like magic. The very inequality of me being older and much more accomplished, much more experienced, takes away any real meaningful conflict."

Man, this just goes beyond creepy.

When his "relationship" with his stepdaughter (then 19) was revealed, his young son commented something like... you just don't date your son's SISTER...

Woody Allen..... eeeewwww

This one should have had a barf alert attached. :)

I loved Woody Allen years ago -- his movies were comedy genius. His later movies became insipid and when he committed what amounts to incest, he just turned me off.

Hard to believe that I once actually liked this guy. I thought "Love and Death" was brilliant but now I'll never be able to get this headline out of my mind whenever I think about his movies.

At his age, playing Father is about all he can do.

The worst part is she's not even particularly attractive.  I mean, if you're gonna hook up with your girl's daughter, hopefully, she'd at least be smokin' hot.

And this is coming from a guy who likes Asian women.  How many beers, how many bucks?  I'd say six and $300... maybe $400.
