The Woody Allen Retrospective Podcast

Welcome back everybody to another episode of Woody Allen Adjacent! Apologies first of all for the audio quality of our mics today. We had some uncontrollable peaking issues that i (Don) tried to fix in post - which helped alot but our mics on this episode do sound a bit tinny - maybe its just to my ears.. but i thought i would mention it off the top! Regardless of that.. on this episode, we decided (as promised) to go back to our beloved actress and famed Woody Alumni Diane Keaton who passed away just over 6 months ago from the posting of this recording. We continue to look at her few film directing efforts.. and this was actually her last movie directing gig. With a star studded cast.. and honestly good dramatic material to bring to adapt to screen. unfortunately.. this one was panned by both critics and audiences.. and this turned out to be an.. interesting experience we just have to be brutally honest about.. It is an interesting one to say very least - Diane Keaton.. you are still.. and will ALWAYS be missed. Thanks for listening as always, if you find time - please like, share and review the show on whatever platform you access this podcast from. ================================================================ For full cast details, user reviews, and more background on the film, check out: 📌 Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hanging_Up 📌 IMDb: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0162983/ 📌 Rotten Tomatoes: https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/hanging_up ================================================================= A VERY Special Thanks to The Woody Allen Pages Website & The Woody Allen Subreddit for their continued support and info - check them out for the latest from the Woody Allen Fan Community! https://www.woodyallenpages.com & https://www.reddit.com/r/woodyallen PLEASE LEAVE A COMMENT on this or any other episode using our comment section video link here >>> https://bit.ly/warpcom If you like the show, please consider buying us a coffee / giving us a tip via our Patreon campaign >>> https://www.patreon.com/woodyretro Thanks for listening as always!

Welcome back everybody, to the Woody Allen Retrospective Podcast for another episode of ADJACENT! Today’s episode came together in a really interesting way. It was sparked by an email we received from one of our listeners nearly a year ago... An email Donald has actually been holding onto for quite some time, waiting for the right film to land in his lap so we could properly unpack it... That moment has now arrived! This week, we’re diving into a movie that opens up a broader conversation - not just about the film itself, but about this particular sub-genre, that being.. the way pregnancy is handled as a devloping narrative on TV and Film and sometimes.. when researching an episode, we stumble across some wild real-life events that later became movies in their own right - Yup.. its all related and brings things full circle Thank you as always for listening - a special thank you to all of our patrons and community supporters. ================================================================ For full cast details, user reviews, and more background on the film, check out: 📌 Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Threesome 📌 IMDb: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt21187592/?ref_=ttnw_ov_i 📌 Rotten Tomatoes: https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/the_threesome ================================================================ The Pregnancy Pact News Story: Pact - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6fvcJ0cnCV8&pp=ygUXdGhlIHByZWduYW5jeSBwYWN0IG5ld3M%3D ================================================================= A VERY Special Thanks to The Woody Allen Pages Website & The Woody Allen Subreddit for their continued support and info - check them out for the latest from the Woody Allen Fan Community! https://www.woodyallenpages.com & https://www.reddit.com/r/woodyallen PLEASE LEAVE A COMMENT on this or any other episode using our comment section video link here >>> https://bit.ly/warpcom If you like the show, please consider buying us a coffee / giving us a tip via our Patreon campaign >>> https://www.patreon.com/woodyretro Thanks for listening as always!

We begin this episode by acknowledging the passing of a truly incredible actress — one who played a pivotal role in the life and legacy of Woody Allen, among many others in Hollywood and beyond. Diane Keaton (1946–2025) will be deeply missed. She passed away the very next day after we recorded this episode, and I (Don) actually found out during the editing phase. Soon after, James and I spoke about it briefly, and we’ll be dedicating a few special episodes to Diane — the next one after this, for sure. Until then, we send our warmest thoughts to the Keaton family as we remember and celebrate a wholly original, endlessly inspiring woman — an actress, mother, friend, and creative spirit unlike any other. ______________________________________________________ On this episode of Woody Adjacent, we’re taking on another Reddit request — and likely the last for a while since we’ve got a long list of adjacent films ahead! French Girl (2024), starring Zach Braff, Evelyne Brochu, and Vanessa Hudgens, directed by James A. Woods and Nicolas Wright is our focus today. It’s a film that’s divided audiences but also carved out an interesting little niche fanbase... it certainly gave us plenty to talk about! James and I dig into whether it’s a modern Meet the Parents, a Canadian Two Days in Paris, or something else entirely — and how its blend of sincerity and slapstick comedy tries to makes a case that love really is the most confusing language of all. Was this case made for the film.... well... let's discuss!

Well.. it seems Woody Allen just recently had a podcast 'interview' with Bill Maher which you should check out here if you have not already.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yaNryNkjPm0 Erm... this interview was a pretty big missed opportunity that the fans are quite frustrated with.. and for good reason.. i mean, you can just read the youtube comments.. anyhow.. here's our take on things before our next adjacent episode currently in the editing phase :)

Welcome back to another episode of Not Woody Actually — where we go somewhat off the rails and discuss things even more loosely related to Woody Allen than our Adjacent series. In this episode, Don takes a solo deep-dive into a long-overdue topic: Patrick McGilligan’s 2025 biography of Woody Allen, A Travesty of a Mockery of a Sham. This is no light read — we’re talking 848 pages or 34 hours on Audible of dense, detailed Woody Allen history. But it might just be the most comprehensive biography of Allen ever written not by the man himself. Don lightly unpacks the book’s tone, structure, strengths, and shortcomings — and shares a few surprising insights along the way. With help from our trusty AI Assistant, we introduce the author, explore the book’s critical reception, and — as a bonus — Don reveals how reading Sham led him to a rare, long-forgotten Woody Allen biography… which in turn became a side project that true fans will definitely appreciate. We also want to apologize to those of you who’ve been waiting a while for this discussion. As mentioned in the intro, James and Don have been deep in conversation about the podcast’s future — and that made this the perfect moment to release this solo recording instead of another Adjacent episode. We hope you enjoy this shorter-than-usual but long-awaited episode — and if you’ve read Sham or have thoughts of your own, we’d love to hear from you.

Welcome back to the Woody Allen Retrospective Podcast – it's Adjacent time once again! In this episode, Don and James tackle Stranger Than Fiction (2006), a film that finds Will Ferrell dialing things down and getting existential. None of the usual Ferrell cowbells, screaming or streaking here. Just wristwatches, looming death, and tasty baked goods ahead. Expect a few Woody comparisons from our witty assistant, some literary musing, and hopefully more laughs than Harold Crick gets in a week. ALSO, James stumbles across a gem of a find for all the Woody Allen defence supporters! Hope you enjoy this one – and remember, it’s all in the wristwatch. :P Please check out the links below for the full cast, user reviews, ratings and info you may find interesting Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stranger_than_Fiction_(2006_film) IMDb: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0420223/?ref_=ttnw_ov_i Rotten Tomatoes: https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/stranger_than_fiction ____________________ Other video discussed in this episode: Proving Woody Allen is INNOCENT (New Investigation) https://youtu.be/2UwB5Bh5pqE?si=kbqGfhrN_wrpcMfW ____________________ We now have a Ko-Fi Page where you can make a ONE TIME Donation / Tip, we as always, highly appreciate your consideration and support - click here: https://ko-fi.com/woodyretro _____________________ A VERY Special Thanks to The Woody Allen Pages Website & The Woody Allen Subreddit for the continued support and info – check them out for the latest from the Woody Allen Fan Community! https://www.woodyallenpages.com & https://www.reddit.com/r/woodyallen PLEASE LEAVE A COMMENT TO THIS OR ANY OTHER EPISODE USING OUR COMMENT SECTION VIDEO LINK HERE >>>>>>> https://bit.ly/warpcom IF YOU LIKE THE SHOW, PLEASE CONSIDER BUYING US A COFFEE / GIVING US A TIP VIA OUR PATREON CAMPAIGN >>> https://www.patreon.com/woodyretro Thanks for listening as always - we would also LOVE a review on iTunes or a 5 star rating via Spotify or whichever podcast platform you are listening on - please find all our connected links below. >>> https://linktr.ee/woodyretro

Welcome back to the Woody Allen Retrospective Podcast for another episode of Woody Allen Adjacent! Following up on our discussion of Miller’s Girl, we turn our attention to 2024’s Babygirl, starring Nicole Kidman, Harris Dickinson, and—somewhat unexpectedly—Antonio Banderas. On the surface, this seemed like a fittingly ‘balanced’ follow-up to Miller’s Girl, but as it turns out… both films manage to disappoint - just in very different ways :P Let’s get into it! _____________________________________________ Director Interview Mentioned / Played in Podcast: https://youtu.be/uU6s9Xz90no?si=lmoO_2Z6wHgFnMOD _______________________________________________ For full cast details, user reviews, and more background on the film, check out: 📌 Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Babygirl 📌 IMDb: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt30057084/ 📌 Rotten Tomatoes: https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/babygirl_2024 ___________________________________________ A VERY Special Thanks to The Woody Allen Pages Website & The Woody Allen Subreddit for their continued support and info - check them out for the latest from the Woody Allen Fan Community! https://www.woodyallenpages.com & https://www.reddit.com/r/woodyallen PLEASE LEAVE A COMMENT on this or any other episode using our comment section video link here >>> https://bit.ly/warpcom If you like the show, please consider buying us a coffee / giving us a tip via our Patreon campaign >>> https://www.patreon.com/woodyretro Thanks for listening as always!

Welcome back to the Woody Allen Retrospective Podcast for another episode of Woody Allen Adjacent—the first one of 2025! First of all, thank you for rocking with us for another year. We GREATLY appreciate our lovely listeners, loyal subscribers, and thoughtful supporters! For those who don’t know, in Woody Allen Adjacent, our podcast hosts work their way through films they like to compare and contrast with Woody Allen’s filmography and/or writing style. Recently, Donald has charged the AI Assistant of the show to dig even deeper and generate a wider list of interesting Adjacent movies—some of which may feel a little ‘out of the norm,’ so to speak. As we rotate our turns for Adjacent every month, we’re slowly working our way through a fascinating list of films. We’ve already covered quite a few at this point, some obvious, some not so. For the AI’s turn this month, it has chosen Claudine (1974), a touching romantic dramedy starring Diahann Carroll and James Earl Jones. Set in Harlem, Claudine offers a heartfelt yet sharp critique of the welfare system, family dynamics, and love in a time of financial struggle. While it arrived during the height of the Blaxploitation era, Claudine took a more grounded and human approach, telling a personal and deeply affecting story. Incidentally, Claudine has a loose connection to Woody Allen via James Earl Jones, who later starred in The Comedians (1974), a film featuring Richard Burton, who worked with Woody Allen in Stardust Memories (1980)—a bit of trivia for those who like to make those six degrees of separation-style links! So, join us for this deep dive into a film that may not be an obvious Woody Adjacent pick but certainly deserves its place in the discussion. - Links Mentioned in This Episode - THE MANIC EXPRESSION MOVIE TEASER TRAILER - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z1Dl4-FDzq8 Please check out the links below for the full cast, user reviews, ratings, and any additional information you may find interesting: Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Claudine_(film) IMDb: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0071334/ Rotten Tomatoes: https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/claudine A VERY Special Thanks to The Woody Allen Pages Website & The Woody Allen Subreddit for their continued support and info—check them out for the latest from the Woody Allen Fan Community! https://www.woodyallenpages.com & https://www.reddit.com/r/woodyallen PLEASE LEAVE A COMMENT on this or any other episode using our comment section video link here >>> https://bit.ly/warpcom If you like the show, please consider buying us a coffee / giving us a tip via our Patreon campaign >>> https://www.patreon.com/woodyretro Thanks for listening as always!

Welcome back to the Woody Allen Retrospective Podcast for another episode of Woody Allen Adjacent! On this adjacent episode we take a reddit recommendation for a movie that looks and sounds very much like films Woody has made in the past.. in fact, this may very well be a 'homage' to such Woody Allen movies: Manhattan and or Annie Hall! However... upon watching.. it became clear to us this might just be one of the most disappointing, perplexing and just poor adjacent type films we have ever seen, putting adjacent aside, its generally a terrible film in the genre of romantic comedies We are by no means film experts but as fans of the genre that have seen and discussed MANY films of this ilk, its quite astounding to see just how bad this one was to watch. We don't believe we have been this critical since our very first adjacent discussion on Lous CK's 'I Love You Daddy' Let us give praise where it is due thought - props to Scott Miller who was Director of Photography, the visual presentation is actually decent....

A warm welcome back to all our lovely podcast listeners We are back after we were unable to record last month, this was due to some personal stuff on Don's part. So as you can see from the title this is going to be a NOT WOODY ACTUALLY episode As always with NWA we talk a bit outside the norm, giving updates on the podcast Monetization situation, other minor updates.. and then for the main event we have a double adjacent-ish discussion on 2 movies. The first being a patreon request from a while ago.. and the second is a movie Don is somewhat fond of.. he just feels that movie may have been a half baked basis for a Woody Adjacent discussion. On the next episode James is doing something different with a horror themed movie he feels Woody Allen could have created (in a parallel universe?) You Know what... lets throw the question out to YOU are lovely listeners... what horror movies have you seen in your movie adventures you feel Woody Allen may have tackled, whether conceptually or loosely... again, see it as an alternate universe question.. we want to hear your thoughts on this specifically - leave your thoughts here > https://bit.ly/warpcom Thanks for listening as always, please check out our associated links below as always! ____________________________________________________- Cool Woody Allen interview from 1979 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HIfwVXk_CKI&t=3s Coup De Chance is currently Streaming for Free on Tubi (As of 20/09/2024) https://tubitv.com/movies/100026984/coup-de-chance Upcoming Woody Allen Book By Famous Biographer - Woody Allen: Life and Legacy: A Travesty of a Mockery of a Sham By Patrick McGilligan https://www.harpercollins.com/products/woody-allen-life-and-legacy-patrick-mcgilligan?variant=41526421979170 ____________________________________ The Brothers McMullen Links Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Brothers_McMullen IMDb: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0112585/ Living Out Loud Links Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Living_Out_Loud IMDb: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0120722/ _________________________________________ A VERY Special Thanks to The Woody Allen Pages Website & The Woody Allen Subreddit for the continued support and info – check them out for the latest from the Woody Allen Fan Community!! https://www.woodyallenpages.com & https://www.reddit.com/r/woodyallen PLEASE LEAVE A COMMENT TO THIS OR ANY OTHER EPISODE USING OUR COMMENT SECTION VIDEO LINK HERE >>>>>>> https://bit.ly/warpcom IF YOU LIKE THE SHOW, PLEASE CONSIDER BUYING US A COFFEE / GIVING US A TIP VIA OUR PATREON CAMPAIGN >>> https://www.patreon.com/woodyretro Thanks for listening as always - we would also LOVE a review on iTunes or a 5 star rating via Spotify or whichever podcast platform you are listening on - please find all our connected links below. >>> https://linktr.ee/woodyretro

Welcome back ladies and gents to another episode of Woody Adjacent! On this episode our co-host with the most James has chosen to discuss a very recent Oscar winning movie based off a somewhat popular novel from the early 2000’s. It was a great conversation to have even given the somewhat uncomfortable realities the movie satirizes and asks us as the viewer to confront It’s actually quite refreshing to see the extremely positive reception to this movie and we definitely ponder how its implications relate to Woody Allen and the Hollywood industry on a whole In American Fiction (2023) Award-winning professor Monk Ellison (Jeffrey Wright) feels stifled. His acclaimed novels lack commercial success, and publishers reject his latest work for not conforming to tired racial stereotypes. Fed up, Monk hatches a plan. He anonymously writes a scathing satire under a pseudonym, "My Pafology," exploiting every cliché about Black life the industry craves. To his surprise, "My Pafology" becomes a runaway bestseller, lauded by white critics who miss the satire entirely. While Monk wrestles with guilt and frustration over his fake identity his family life also begins to further crumbles as his siblings and mother face medical instability and a new relationship becomes more difficult to navigate in line with his pseudo success.

Welcome back ladies and gents to another episode of Woody Adjacent! This time we come back to our Ai Companion's recommendation of the very well loved movie: Get Shorty (1995) As well as talking about the original 1995 film adaptation, we also get into a discussion on the much HATED sequel 'Be Cool' (2005) and lastly the more recent fresh TV adaptation created in 2017 It's always interesting to see what the Ai comes up with after analysing Woody Allens Filmography and writing style... its even more fun hearing its reasonings for picking the film itself, which it does! Get ready for a fun ride and another great conversation :) __________________________________________ In Get Shorty (1995) Chili Palmer (John Travolta) is a Miami loan shark with a secret dream. Stuck collecting debts for a ruthless mob boss (Dennis Farina), Chili gets sent to Los Angeles to track down a down-on-his-luck producer named Harry Zimm (Gene Hackman) who owes a hefty gambling debt. Upon arriving in Hollywood, Chili quickly realizes the film industry is surprisingly similar to the criminal world he knows. He finds himself navigating a landscape of broken promises, shady characters, and desperate hustles. However, Chili's brash confidence and knowledge of the "business" side of things strangely changes his fortune and unlikely partnerships lead to unexpected opportunities for Chilli in Hollywood!

On this episode we are doing a supporter request from our ongoing patreon campign. In truth, we get quite a few requests for Woody Allen Adjacent that don't quite fit the bill, but in this case we just could not ignore the ensemble cast and woody like setting - a worthy candidate for this project from the outset..... How did we feel about it though? >_< lets see... In Queens Logic (1991) a group of childhood male friends reunite for an upcoming wedding. Beneath the celebratory facade, each friend grapples with personal challenges and hidden emotions. Al (Joe Mantegna), the life of the party, hides a strained marriage beneath his womanising facade. Dennis (Kevin Bacon), a musician returned from Hollywood, faces the ghosts of his past. Vinny (Kenneth Mitchell), a struggling actor, yearns for more than one-night stands. Eliot (John Malkovich), the lone gay member of the group, confronts his loneliness and societal pressures and the groom to be appears have wedding jitters related to his artistic dreams of being a successful painter. As the festivities unfold old wounds resurface, secrets are revealed and relationships are tested, all done through humour, introspection and a very QUEENS like state of mind.
