I believe there is something out there watching us. Unfortunately, it's the government.

Profile / Biography

Woody Allen is a very popular comedian, writer, director, and actor, whose cerebral styles and of-the wall humor, as well as his notorious personal relationships, have earned him a lot of fame.

Allen was born in 1935 in New York City, where he has lived all of his life and which provides the most important basis of much of his work. 

Woody Allen began writing for shows such as The Tonight Show, Your Show of Shows, and The Ed Sullivan Show at the age of nineteen, and at 22, had won his first award, an Emmy.  In 1960, he decided to try his hand at stand-up and became one of the most popular comedians in New York, specializing gin neurotic, shy characters.

Woody Allen’s first movie, What’s New Pussycat?, was written in 1965.  It was followed by several other comedies. Annie Hall received four Academy Awards in 1977, with  a new dramatic edge and a more sophisticated humor that departed from his earlier slapstick, gags, and one-liner style.

Allen’s movies dropped overt humor in the 1980s, with features such as Stardust Memories created as sharp works of satire and disdain.  Allen has shot many of his post-1990 movies in London, including the acclaimed Match Point.
