Scoop
I saw this movie while I took a bus yesterday. Scoop is the latest Woody Allen movie. I liked it a lot. I am aware critics didn't like it, but I enjoyed it quite a bit. The movie is fun, funny and entertaining. I really like the characters, Woody Allen's "Sid" with his constant phrase "I love you, really. With all due respect, you're a beautiful person. You're a credit to your race", made me laugh each time it appears. Scarlett does have a "funny" quality as Woody Allen mentions in interviews. I also thought Hugh Jackman as the son of a lord was a pretty good character.
Did anyone else in the Lounge enjoy this movie? |

Re: Scoop
My wife and I saw this last Summer when were on vacation in Newport R.I. There is this old restored movie house that enhances the experience so we always try to catch a flick when we are down there. We both liked it, not knee slapping funny, but funny and entertaining none the less.

I knew about the Amistad location shots, heard that they covered all the paved roads with dirt etc. And always get a chuckle out of seeing Claus Von Bulow's name on that plaque at the beginning of the cliff walk. |
