...Women represent upwards of 60% of the video market, which is where Hollywood makes its real money: video brings in 2 1/2 times as much as the box office does. If there is a large female audience--plus a healthy portion of men who don't diet strictly on raw-meat action epics--then there will be women's films...

Yet in his films Allen is the Woody of old--or, rather, of young. To Lenny, the raw, vibrant Linda makes Amanda seem stale and shrewish. Bonham Carter (who's a radiant 29 and certainly doesn't look shrewish) must play that standard Woody marplot, the older woman.
