So, for those of you who haven’t received your Entertainment Weekly Summer Movie Preview yet (or read the news previously at Screengrab), hold onto your freakin’ hats: Woody Allen is filming a new movie in New York City with...deep breath...Larry David!!!
So, yes, despite Scoop and Melinda and Melinda and Hollywood Ending (and, uh, The Curse of the Jade Scorpion and Small Time Crooks and Celebrity and...well, you get the idea), I’m just going to cross my fingers and hope against hope that America’s favorite bald fuck has the power to resurrect Mr. Konigsberg’s erstwhile comedy mojo.
Oh...and the hot, spicy Johannson-Cruz-Bardem threeway?
Well, they’re all co-starring in Woody Allen’s upcoming summer release, Vicky Cristina Barcelona, and because of that, according to the director, “...it got out that there was torrid sex in the picture.” But unfortunately, he cautions, “People who come and expect those exaggerations are going to be disappointed.”
There is, however, “a discretely photographed ménage à trois,” which should at the very least earn the flick a spot on my Netflix list.
Ah, who am I kidding? See you in the popcorn line on August 29th!
