Maybe he's had a discussion with his accountant?

I liked Midnight in Paris, but I was glad to see Allen in this one. His neurosis is usually not duplicated by the lead actor in his movies. And aren’t they all him living vicariously though them.
One non-political one on the plane “I don’t do turbulence.”
I know what Allen comments will come here and deservedly so, but I have been addicted to his movies for a long time.

Maybe he likes money more than he likes his values?
People can see the light but I wouldn’t bet on it until I saw further proof.

I so loved Allen’s earlier movies. IMHO, they were genius. Then he got weird and serious. And marrying his stepdaughter didn’t help.
Why do so many brilliant people throw everything away?

Sounds a lot like “One Two Three”.

Utter fiction: No self righteous liberal twit has ever apologized, especially for their misguided political beliefs.

The last Woody Allen movie I watched was Crimes and Misdemeanors. Basically it was about infidelity and bad choices in marriage and murdering a mistress.
I couldn't separate the movie from the movie-maker and viewed the whole thing as a disgusting rationalization of his own messed up personal life.
The whole time he was making his movie, he was sleeping with Mia Farrow and their daughter! And in the movie, he's pontificating on his themes to Mia Farrow, who's blissfully unaware how close to home his blather and rationalizations really are.
So, if he's looking to come aboard on the right, I'd rather pull up the gang plank.
Maybe he can cast Morgan Freeman in his next movie.

Loved it. Also the Kardashian skit/theme where people are deemed by media (and “everybody”) as being famous because they are famous. Like Rush pillories President Kardashian (no substance, all hat-no cattle).
The movie also features a ton of very beautiful women and great scenery.

It's hard to believe that a person smart enough to earn so much money has to be dragged so late in life, kicking and screaming to the realization of just how ruinous the Liberal plan for America is (and has always been)!
I wonder how genuine Woody's sentiment is and I wonder if other wealthy individuals with long-standing (albeit, blind) allegiance to Liberalism will themselves see and FEEL the frightening depth and dimension of this ‘institutionalized theft’ that “O” is putting into place.

Re the comments so far I'm guessing you guys were preoccupied reliving last Friday's "Kiss In."

Maybe he likes money more than he likes his values? More than likely he knows he has the liberal followers and is now trolling for the conservative dollars.

Typical Woody Allen. His character is wise and correct and desired by super hot women 20 years (at least) his junior, even if the character is poor.
All dialog and plot devices point inexorably to the wisdom and correctness and desirability of his character.
No Woody Allen script has ever deviated the slightest from the above. There is no self reflection and no character growth - other than the ‘growth’ of the other characters into recognition of the wisdom correctness and desirability of Woody's character.
I wouldn't have time for a Woody Allen movie even if he didn't molest his stepdaughter and the sister of his children.

I stopped jumping to attention every time a life-long liberal moonbat celebrity or newsie says something positive about America, conservative ideals and causes, or freedom, the Constitution, and liberty a long time ago.
As liberals they spent their entire lives lying to themselves and others . . . now suddenly I'm supposed to believe it when they have a conservative epiphany? I don't think so.
I quit looking to liberals for approbation and justification--or even fairness.
I'm a huge Woody Allen fan, I like pretty much every film and appearance he's done. To say he's a comic genius it to under-praise his work.
In his personal life, like all Hollywood/Entertainment types, he's a slimeball. Never understood all the hullabaloo over his relationship with his step-daughter--OF COURSE it was disgusting, he's an entertainer. Virtually all of them live hedonistic, sybaritic lives with little regard for mores and what decent folk say.
