Woody Allen: "You choose wheter your live is going to be meaningful for you o meaningless"

Emma Stone:
“I had a wonderful experience working with Woody at both films”
Parker Posey:
“I really enjoy the experience. I learn a lot and yeah I got to work in a Woody Allen's film and play one of his women. I loved his women and caracterisation of women”
Woody Allen:
“I think in every body live there are a times where there are turning points in your life, when you realize that something momentous can possibly happen if you make a choice. And if you make the right choice, great. In this case the coice is irrational but it is not so irrational giving the comparison with the coices we all make in our lives”.
“People need something to believe in their lives. You choose wheter your live is going to be meaningful for you o meaningless. And people would choose religions in their lives, for example and they will make an irrational choice.”
“I haven’t seen cathe or spoken with cate since the picture it is over”.

Joaquin Phoenix, Emma Stone, Jamie Blackley, Ethan Phillips, Parker Posey, Julie Ann Dawson, mark Burzenski, Gary Wilmes, Geoff Schuppert, David Pittu, Steven Howitt, Kaitlyn Bouchard, Ana Marie Proulx, Kate Mcgonigle, Tamara Hickeyharting.

I saw Parker posey in “Louis” and she was awesome - makes total sense that she works with Allen.

I met Parker Posey. She came into my candy store in Provincetown MA one summer. Classy dame.

Great face indeed

[@Gaur1983]

It's weird - not necessarily to see Woody Allen old. But to see this 80 year old befuddled facing a sheer wall of digital phones and cameras. This is a man ,who grew up without television and whose lifelong models are the likes of Groucho Marx, SJ Perelman and Louis Armstrong - men from another world.

[@danielstanwyck2812]

spoke like a true 19yr old. or maybe 20

[@vancouveride]

Armstrong was pure class.

[@davereynolds7472]

Just as strong as Arnold in his own way, maybe even stronger. The great Woody Allen, learned so much studying Woody. It was a film school unto itself. In 100 years Woody'll be considered Picasso. That is If he isn't considered Picasso ALREADY. Thanks Woodman - help me learn how to write.

Emma Stone should have won an Oscar for her role in Irrational Man.

[@minasemyon7124]

Are these same actresses jumping onto the ‘me too’ bandwagon and saying they won’t ever act in his films again? Hope not ! Use your own minds and hearts.

[@justgivemethetruth]

God, I hate to see Woody get old, how is he going to live forever if he is getting old like that? Come on Woody, buck up old man, throw off those years, go get bit by a vampire or something, we need you for a few hundred more years at least!

[@lepetitchat123]

Is that a fact?

[@JonathanAllen0379]

I love Woody Allen at least as much, if not more so, than anyone else. That being said, I'm sure even he has to know on some level that so-called "free will", it not completely an illusion, is far from being so black-and-white. One experiencing significant (or even subtle) cognitive impairment of any kind doesn't have the same "choice" as someone fortunate enough not to suffer in a similar manner. From an existential standpoint, maybe subjective meaning is enough for some people, but I don't know that most people are able to "choose" their life to have meaning. Ultimately, if there's no higher power or objective purpose to existence, it's all just a hollow façade pretending like subjectivism is somehow satisfying.

[@johnandersen6752]

Armando Betancourt There is a book, "Illusion vs. Reality," that I think lays it all out. It consists of talks by Shri Ranjit Maharaj.

[@zeltzamer4010]

Disagree. If there were one set higher purpose, it may be comforting for a while but it’d get pretty boring soon enough. The fact that no one is born with any inherent purpose is terrifying but it’s the only way for human beings to have any actual freedom in finding their own meaning in life. It’s not equally easy all around, of course, but it also means that someone born less fortunate can still have just as meaningful a life as someone who wasn’t. I guess the solution would be to ‘trick’ yourself, at least at first, into believing the most fulfilling thing for you is the objective goal in life; an artist might see art as the only true way of enduring the world, whereas as a scientist could think their field is the objective point of view. Those are two different choices in life, but lots of people get by on them.

[@adamquiles2468]

I wasnt born yet when Allen was made movies in the 1970s. Anyone recommend his stuff?

[@TheEleatic]

Woody looks handsome flanked by those babes- lovely ladies.

If I was Woody. I'd wear dark glasses and a hat.

But you are not. And that's the difference.

[@arnoldwegstern5124]

Woody is a talented clarinet-player as well. He should work together with Germany s clarinet-giant Martin Schmidt-Hahn. They both could fit together in old-time-jazz. Marvellous

[@Jantonov1]

No matter where Woody goes, he has to trash heaven. lol

Woody is a charming nihilist. This makes him, alas, tedious and small-minded in the end. There’s no spirituality AT ALL. Sad, really.

patrice decourcy , why did you pick that arbitrary number? 7 has lots of meaning in the Bible in the book of Revelation. If your comment was supposed to critique the existence of of God, you kinda negated it referencing that number.

A book whose included chapters were decided upon by the votes of men. A book that says one shall put to death, gays, witches, those who work on the sabbath, those who introduce you to other Gods, etc. etc. etc.

[@davidholtz3885]

Its great that despite all his PR problems, Woody still had time to attend the small, intimate "welcome home from prison" dinner-party @ Jeffrey Epstein's house after Epstein's release from his first prison sentence. He never let Epstein's conviction for trafficking young girls bother him! What a guy!

[@teodelfuego]

You smug self-righteous ass. There are hundreds of good, honest people who came into contact with Epstein who was eager to throw his wealth at all kinds of projects, many of them laudable.

[@at8630]

Didn't seem to bother Bill Clinton, Bill Gates, and about a hundred other rich and powerful either. Imagine that, a rich guy that likes attractive young women. What a sic fukc.
