Back for another discussion for what we consider another hidden gem with an actor in the spotlight not usually going this route.. and surprisingly not falling flat on their chiseled face for taking this chance :P This time let's talk about 1991's - Oscar (no oscars were won for this feature! haha) Anyhoo.......

Well.. as you can see on this episode we are focusing on an Actor who has stolen the attention of hollywood and audiences alike with a surprising moment of arrogance and bad judgement Yes, i have shamelessly taken this oppertunity to talk about the 2022 Oscar slap hear around the world... but ironically - Will Smith has a perfect movie in his filmography that fits nicely as a Woody Adjacent choice... believe it or not.. this is true! So, with that said, lets go back in time for: 1993's - Six Degrees of Separation PLEASE CONSIDER SUPPORTING US VIA PATREON https://www.patreon.com/woodyretro AND ALL OUR OTHER MENTIONED / SOCIAL LINKS CAN BE FOUND BELOW https://linktr.ee/woodyretro
Back for another great discussion.. and thanks to James DW we are taking a turn for the more recent - focusing on another Woody alumni actor / director, deciding to do something much closer to home and his warm Irish heart Apparently the Oscar folk just looove this one.. well, we assume so due to the wealthy academy nominations So, with that said, lets go back in time for: 2021's - Belfast Anyhoo.......

We are back.. ironically 9 months after speaking about the previous 2 movies in this much beloved movie series.. and it's fair to say we purposefully separated this discussion from the other two as it feels warranted... if you feel like digging in the weeds of this movie / series Expectations for a movie can certainly lead to dissapointment dangerous if you become invested in the story and don't quite appreciate a tonal change.. this discussion is probably more for the hardcore followers of this series.. If you are one of the hardcore fans - please consider hearing us out in full before you tear us apart in the comments for our critical thoughts :P Lets get in the weeds for - 2013's - Before Midnight Anyhoo.......

Back on our first discussion for 2022 and this one is surely a doozie ;P Upon re-listening / editing this session I think we may have rambled maybe a bit too much about our thoughts on the director himself and his motivations / methods in making this movie - but alas, eventually there is a review / discussion about this somewhat controversial dark biographical "comedy" of a film.. which we do have some appreciation for Lets talk about 2005's - I Am A Sex Addict PLEASE CONSIDER SUPPORTING OUR EFFORTS VIA PATREON BELOW! https://www.patreon.com/woodyretro We now have collated all of our social links, playlists and James Books for sale in one link which you can find below to connect with us directly https://linktr.ee/woodyretro Thank you as always for listening - please consider giving us a positive review and or rating on Apple Podcasts.. trust us, it really goes a long way!

Welcome back everybody to another preposterous episode of Woody Allen Adjacent! Before we get to our movie pick for discussion James brought up an interesting blog piece regarding Wallace Shawn's defence of working with woody allen which can be read here https://www.thewrap.com/wallace-shawn-woody-allen-still-willing-to-work/ It was also brought to our attention that a new woody allen blu ray release is out which.. is kind of meh in terms of the titles chosen but we are still glad to see Woodys back catalogue get any love in these tumultuous times! https://www.amazon.com/The-Woody-Allen-Collection-Blu-ray/dp/B09BTCKGM2?tag=bluray-039-20&linkCode=ogi&th=1&psc=1&m=ATVPDKIKX0DER ANYHOOO.. lets get back to the show with another pick by James - this time we are going to talk about 2017's - The Meyerowitz Stories What a cast for this movie indeed! - i feel like this movie has honestly not been highlighted enough... and thats why it was a great pick for our playlist James certainly deserve...
