I think that's part of the problem. Let's face it Allen's entire career (such as it is) has been based on letting the entire world know that he's a pervert with severe sexual malfunction. Nobody that's seen any of his movies was surprised by the scandal, which in the end really hobbled it's ability to actually have an effect on him. There's something to be said for hiding in plain sight.
Tea Leoni Interview - Premiere Magazine -- May 2002:
Interviewer: Until then, we'll make do with you as Woody Allen's newest leading lady.
Leoni: Which was a f*cking dream, one of the most spectacular experiences of my career! (sighs) If I only ever worked with Woody Allen again, I'd go happy.
Interviewer: Do you have a grand revelation about him?
Leoni: That he is a genius--and I don't mean that with any flattery, necessarily, because having seen it, it must suck to be a genius, it must be painful and difficult and lonely. Because what's the point of conversation? You've already had (someone else's) point of view without their presence…
Interviewer: "Oh, that Woody Allen--he keeps getting older and the girls keep getting younger." Comment, please.
Leoni: (laughs) I guess it would be questionable, because he does it with just no aplomb, but let me just tell you that, well...he's one of the sexiest men I've ever worked with. It's his mind. (laughs)
God, I know that sounds, like, classic. But you look into those eyes--and they are very all-encompassing, those eyes--and, well, he's not the epitome of the Adonis presence, but--and I hate sounding like I'm from California when I say this--but he's in touch with his body. He has a very sexy presence. And he's a very soft, gentle kisser. There is such confidence in those lips.
Interviewer: My...So could you imagine actually going to bed with Woody Allen?
Leoni: Yes! I could imagine right now at this table going to bed with Woody Allen--and it's not just because I'm pregnant and a little bit more randy than normal!
