Help me out a little bit, you folks from an earlier generation.
I don't get Woody Allen. I don't get his body of work.....at all.
Let's focus on the body of work. I spent a small time watching Woody Allen stuff and I found it:
- Not funny
- Not entertaining
- Not interesting
- Slow
- Stuttering
- Self absorbed
Okay, maybe Woody Allen should explore some new ideas like.........maybe writing about the subject matter of extramarital affairs, or maybe focus on his insecurity about being Jewish, or short, or maybe have beautiful women fawning over him and pining for him in a scripted movie sort of way, and maybe he should do that stuttering type of speech where he seems uncertain about how he's going to point out his insecurities about previouslymentionedstuff because it's SO HILARIOUS.
I've seen his body of work. And here's the number of times I've ever cracked a smile seeing anything Allen has ever done..........................
...........................
.......................(that's zero by the way) because Woody Allen: Not Funny. Or interesting. Or compelling. Or challenging. Or even human condition evoking...........
Maybe it's a generational thing.
I don't get Woody Allen. I just........I just don't.
