    Stop hating an innocent man and encouraging others to keep punishing him. There were two thorough investigations conducted by two differents states and they both exonerated Woody and also proved Mia Farrow's tapes were all edited.

    I love Woody Allen's films and I have no problem saying that. I don't know the man personally, so I don't care what he did in his private life. If I judged artists by what they did or do, I couldn't listen to Miles Davis, read Bukowski or look at a Picasso painting. If someone tries to lecture me about such petty things and expects me to cancel the artist, he or she gets the finger pointed at me for not caring about his or her snowflake sensibilities and is kindly asked to f.o. These people only have power over you as long as you allow them that power. Again, for the slightly slower minds. You have to separate people and art, unless the artist has a special moral claim.

    meh. like miles said, " I can tell by the way a horn player holds the horn if he can play or not"
    hearing him confirms what i saw in the thumbnail. stiff phrasing,schmaltzy, sound and notes with no substance, except a lot of cheese. terrible tone. i've heard other stuff from him. no better than this.

      I guess it was lost on you he was playing it for laughs and not to win your approval. If you knew anything about him you would know he takes it very serious. But this was a comedy bit. Those of us who understand irony get the joke.

      Think about this...he was well known, productive, and a millionaire long before you were born. You will never be featured on any TV talk show. And you won't have millions of lifelong fans. Nor will you create any films that approach even a tenth of his talent.
      So, in spite of all that cheese and schmaltz, he's light years ahead of you, mark.
