The older I get the more I understand the appeal of Mr. Allen


15. "Mighty Aphrodite"
I probably wouldn't have enjoyed this film as much if I saw it when it was released, when I was 12. There's a good chance I would have been let down that there were no breast shots in a movie with a prostitute as a main character.

I don't care that Woody Allen makes a lot of the same films. They're good films with great dialogue. I should care about the guys personal life, considering he bases his work on his personal life and his personal life includes marrying his adopted daughter. I should really care about this fact considering Woody's character has an adopted son in this film. Whatever. "Mighty Aphrodite" is a great film.
