findingthemojo no 149

Good afternoon

  • Woody Allen (born Allan Stewart Konigsberg) recently interviewed in The Guardian by Oliver Burkeman, says he won't be retiring anytime soon as he likes making movies too much - he is 76 - "You work with beautiful women, and charming men, who are amusing and gifted; you travel places, and the money's good.  It's nice living."  He is especially keen on the French who he says "think I'm an intellectual because I wear these glasses, and they think I'm an artist because my films lose money."

  • he was quoted in The Independent recently, saying "I don't want to live on in the hearts of my countrymen; I want to live on in my apartment."

  • and, in The Daily Telegraph: "There are two types of people in this world, good and bad.  But the bad seem to enjoy the waking hours much more."

Love Woody!
Cheers and have a great weekend
