ON RELATIONSHIPS (from Annie Hall)
“This guy goes to a psychiatrist and says, “Doc, uh, my brother’s crazy; he thinks he’s a chicken.”
And the doctor says, “Well, why don’t you turn him in?”
The guy says, “I would, but I need the eggs.”
Well, I guess that’s pretty much now how I feel about relationships. They’re totally irrational, and crazy, and absurd, but we keep going through it because most of us need the eggs.”

Saw To Rome With Love last night.
Great cast. 4 non-interlocking, unusual stories. Woody in a small role (which is where he belongs now).
I really loved his Midnight in Paris because the literary line was one I would want to follow myself, but this was an a very enjoyable film.
The reviews are mixed, but what does that mean?
When it was over I had a definite craving for Italian food. We went out for pasta.

Woody Allen’s Play It Again, Sam (1972)

Poster for Woody Allen’s Midnight in Paris which alludes visually to van Gogh’s Starry Night.
Eisenberg, Gerwig, and Woody Allen shooting The Bop Decameron in Rome.
Is really biting satire better than physical force? Woody says, No. Go get those Jersey Nazis.

Woody Allen directs Brooke Shields
In the process of editing Annie Hall, scenes involving Alvy’s first two wives, a tour of the nine levels of Hell, and two adolescent crushes were cut.
The latter scenes featured an eleven-year-old Brooke Shields, and a seventeen-year old Stacey Nelkin. In the scene with Brooke Shields (as Judy Horowitz), Alvy has a date with her and sees her in the present day as obese with children milling around her legs.
When Alvy has the chance to use a condom in a fantasy sequence with Stacey Nelkin, it crumbles into pieces. In real life Nelkin, who regarded herself as a sophisticated young woman, had a two-year relationship with forty-one year old Woody. He never acknowledged her publicly, but she was to become a strong influence on his script for Manhattan.
