Today it was announced that Woody Allen's Cafe Society will be opening the Cannes Film Festival, which I will be attending this May. The French love Woody, and by the time he shows up to the Croisette for the premiere you will be hearing a lot people screaming "voody vee loves you". I love the guy, especially his older classics such as Annie Hall, Manhattan, and Hannah and Her Sisters, but it doesn't mean new Woody is terrible. In the last 10 years he's released Match Point, Midnight In Paris, Vicki Cristina Barcelona and Blue Jasmine. Most directors dream of releasing just one of these during the span of an entire career. Of course he's doing this by releasing a movie a year, but why the hell would you complain? When h passes away we'll regret we ever took this great American auteur for granted.
