Woody Allen unsure about Hollywood’s romance charm

Woody Allen feels that “all the romance of filmmaking is gone,” so he’s not precisely sure what he wants to do in the film business going forward.

The director was questioned about his most recent film, Coup de Chance, his 50th feature, and the difficulties it had in getting released in North American theatres in an interview with AirMail that was posted online on Saturday.

“It doesn’t matter to me whether I get distributed here or not,” Allen said. 

“Once I make it, I don’t follow it anymore. Distribution is no longer what it was. Now distribution is two weeks in a cinema… And then that’s it. I mean, Annie Hall played in movie houses in New York for a little bit over a year. It’d be in one theater for six, seven months, and then somebody would pick it up and it would hang around another few months. The whole business has changed, and not in an appealing way. All the romance of filmmaking is gone.”

Before the streaming era, Allen expressed in 2022 that “a lot of the thrill is gone” for him as a filmmaker, reflecting on his future in the business. He also admitted that he was still “on the fence about it” in his most recent interview.

“I don’t want to have to go out to raise money. I find that a pain in the neck,” the Rainy Day in New York director said. 

“But if someone shows up and calls in and says we want to back the film, then I would seriously consider it. I would probably not have the willpower to say no because I have so many ideas.”

In recent years, Woody Allen’s reputation in the United States has significantly declined due to the #MeToo movement and the emergence of sexual abuse accusations from his adopted stepdaughter, Dylan Farrow.

Following an inquiry in 1993, the Connecticut state’s attorney declined to file charges against Allen, who has denied the allegations.

Sean Diddy Combs’ arrest: Megyn Kelly slams Justin Bieber, Usher, Ashton for staying silent

Megyn Kelly is waiting for high-profile stars to speak up after Sean Diddy Combs arrest

Megyn Kelly has recently slammed Justin Bieber, Usher and Ashton Kutcher for not speaking up after Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs arrest.

Speaking on her latest episode of The Megyn Kelly Show podcast, the journalist asked why Ashton, Usher and Justin reportedly failed to make a public statement over Sean’s alleged crimes.

The rapper was arrested in New York on September 16. He was later charged with three counts including racketeering conspiracy; sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion; and transportation to engage in prostitution.

“Justin Bieber… they’re not alleging his name in any of this, but Justin was very young when he came into Diddy’s circle,” recalled Megyn.

She further said, “There’s no question, he had a lot of exposure to this guy, and I think he should say something.”

Meanwhile, the journalist also looked into Justin whether he had been a “victim” of Sean.

Megyn explained, “It’s very hard to go out and say this has happened to you, but if he was a victim, God forbid, I encourage him to do it.”

“You need someone strong like that to break the dam,” she remarked.

Megyn further said, “If you actually had an Usher, a Bieber, or someone like an Ashton Kutcher — I don’t think he was an abuse victim, but he was good friends with Diddy for a long time — come out and say what they know, it would show leadership.”

“And it would give the others who are on this list permission and the security of not being the only one that has to worry about retribution,” she added.

“So, I’m excited to be able to team up with people that I look up to, people that I love dearly,” remarked the 42-year-old.

Hilarie opened up that she and Sophia Bush were shocked when the news of the reboot was being “leaked in August”.

However, the actress explained that the “nicest thing is seeing the positive fan reaction to it and all of our friends from the show commenting on posts and just getting to show enthusiasm, because obviously we want Netflix to greenlight it”.

Meanwhile, the reboot news came almost seven years after Hilarie and Sophia were among the 18 former female cast and crew members who accused One Tree Hill creator Mark Schwahn of sexual harassment.

Angelina Jolie has recently explained what some tattoos meant to her and some of her children who also have ink.

Speaking to CR Fashion Book, the Maleficent actress opened up that some of her six children also have “tattoos”.

During the interview, Angelina responded to a question by Carine Roitfeld, “I just started my tattoo journey. Can you tell me about your most recent tattoo and the significance of it?”
