Fun Stuff

Trivia:
Woody Allen's parents, who were well into their 90s at the time of filming, appear on-screen late in the film. This marked the first time that Martin Konigsberg and Nettie Konigsberg had anything even remotely to do with their son's film career (although they were consistently satirized throughout the years). more

Woody Allen: They won't pay ten cents to see one of my movies, but passing in a gondola, they love it. more

A very good look at Woody's passion, 31 August 1999
7/10
Author: Mario Bergeron from Cap-de-la-Madeleine, Canada

I really love this movie. Woody Allen appears as a very nice man. Other comments are very right, referring to his movie Stardust Memories. I think it's a little bit sad that all these people wants to see him because he's a famous actor and director, and not because of the music he and his partners seems to love so much. That happens to be my favorite kind of jazz (Jelly Roll Morton! Yeah!) and the band are doin' it in a very attractive way. This movie should be just about music.
