For five decades; no American filmmaker has been as prolific -- or as paradoxical -- as Woody Allen. From Play It Again; Sam (1972) to Midnight in Paris (2011) and Blue Jasmine (2013); Allen has produced an average of one film a year; yet in many of these movies Allen reveals a progressively skeptical attitude toward both the value of art and the cultural contributions of artists.In this second edition Peter J. Bailey extends his classic study to consider Allens work during the twenty-first century. He illuminates how the directors decision to leave New York to shoot in European cities such as London; Paris; Rome; and Barcelona has affected his craft. He also explores Allens shift toward younger actors and interprets the evolving critical reaction to his films -- authoritatively demonstrating why the directors lifelong project of moviemaking remains endlessly deserving of careful attention.

Great Level. but needs to be spiral boundBy Whitney L. DibbleI wish they had half stars because Id really only take off 1/2 a star because I wish the book was spiral bound. I can take it in myself to get it done (which I will). but it be nice if it was already done. My daughter LOVES the music and after reading the other reviews and doing my research. Im happy with this level and maybe a bit of a challenge (not impossible) it is for my daughter to play.
