and people will talk. The second part of the American Masters doc features Diane Keaton, Louise Lasser, Scarlett Johansson, Martin Scorsese, Dick Cavett, Larry David and so many more. And there's inspiration and process...why and how he makes what he makes...there are outtakes, shots of Allen giving direction to his actors and stories of major rewrites, the portable typewriter he has typed out every movie script, play and New Yorker piece since he began writing...key inspirations, from Bob Hope to Ingmar Bergman. And there's countless classic scenes from movies we can't forget...the bank robbery scene from Take the Money and Run. The translation scene from Bananas. The beautiful Gershwin music from Manhattan. And so many, many scenes from Annie Hall.
American Masters has outdone itself with this documentary on Woody Allen, and you owe it to yourself if you love movies to drink it in...8pm
last night's part 1 will be rebroadcast tonight at 1am)
