New York in a way functions as another character within the story, as it does within most of Woody Allen's stories.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
New York is a character, all on its own, and whenever you film there, it becomes part of the show. That's just the nature of being there.
Manhattan is like Beverly Hills. And the soul of New York has moved to Brooklyn, where everything new and exciting seems to be.
If I look at it, it's about being able to get lost in New York, to explore the city, to have more personal stories about New York, although some could also take place in Paris.
There's nothing New York likes more than a thing. Or a place. Or a place that's a thing. Or a thing that happens to be a place.
It's fascinating to see how versatile New York City is. It lends itself to being so many different places!
I seem to only write New York stories because it's the only thing that inspires or interests me.
I think New York has evolved in my work just the way the city has.
Woody Allen's movies are so much a part of me. I grew up watching them over and over and would read all his comic pieces for the New Yorker. In some ways, his influence is so much there that I can't even locate it any more.
New York is a brutally expensive place to live, and the kind of person who might have the dedication and esoteric taste to make the comics that I would really love is finding it more relaxing to live elsewhere.
I'm a New York story.
