    Nice to see Woody at 88 still sharp and as interesting as ever. So much maligned but a creative and comedic genius. A great stand-up comedian, writer, filmmaker, director, actor, and musician. A great contribution to the performing arts. Can't take that away from him.

      This channel is so "underrated" that you're watching it with one of the biggest game changers in cinema. It's so underrated that a legitimate icon in the business is conducting an interview with this gentleman on his channel. Boy oh boy. So underrated.

    Would love to hear more about Woodys writing process in depth next time you have him on e.g. His thoughts about dialogue, what he does when he hits a wall in the story, what he does when he's out of ideas for a story and so on. Fantastic interview thanks for posting

    Thank you so much for making this video. Woody Allen is a treasure and I really appreciate how he only said me. A Farrow was a good actress even though she’s a crazy conniving person he is so so not what the people of Hollywood have made them out to be and deserves so much more but we live in a world of people that don’t pay attention. Thank you for this video.

    Grew up in north St. Louis, though not on the same scale, you guys, and your descriptions of your old neighborhoods brought back memories of a culture that was still hanging on in St. Louis into the sixties. I ended up as a professional actor, and it was those double features, big screen
    houses that were like Greek temples, where I gestated, and in many ways learned to act.
    Beautiful memories, guys... thanks so much!!

    He was quite a neurotic character in the movie with Diane Keaton, who played Annie Hall. They worked well together. Woody is old, but his mind is sharp.

    He didn't read growing up and still never really enjoys books. Amazing! Woody more than compensated for it by infusing his comedy with literary references and talking like a neurotic, whining, nerdy bookworm in his movies.

    Julian, your sentimentality about directors and film that have aged, bearing no resemblance to the current climate, especially amongst younger viewers.
    Mayer recruited "heros" like John Wayne for pro-American propaganda newsreels, knowing he didn't serve in the US military.
    I love cinema, from the 20s I p to current projects. You're haunted by ghosts of the past that still influence your world view.

    Man, he's really starting to look and sound his age. Getting old sucks. But I love that he's still mentally sharp as a tack. Even if he wasn't canceled, I don't imagine he belongs on a movie set at this stage of his life. Maybe he can spend his final years writing plays or more short stories.
