About Woody Allen Films
A home for the films
and everything around them.
WoodyAllenFilms.org is an independent archive exploring the films through reviews, actors, music, locations, articles, news, quizzes and the details that make each film worth returning to.
Why this site exists
Going further
into the films.
Woody Allen's films contain far more to explore than a title, cast list and release date.
There are performances that recur across decades, music that becomes inseparable from particular scenes, restaurants and streets that become part of the films, and small details that can send you down an entirely new path through the work.
I wanted somewhere that could bring all of that together.
The aim of WoodyAllenFilms.org is to build a useful, enjoyable archive that lets you start with a film and keep exploring — into its actors, soundtrack, locations, awards, related articles and everything else connected to it.
Some visitors will know the films inside out. Others may have seen only one or two. The site is designed for both.
Who I am
From a social account
to a growing film archive.
I'm Guy, and I created Woody Allen Films as a place to share my interest in the films, the people who appear in them and the music, places and moments that have stayed with me.
What began on social media gradually developed into a much larger project across Instagram, Facebook, Threads and YouTube. This website gives that material a permanent home and allows me to explore subjects in far greater depth.
The reviews on the site are personal. I'm interested in why a particular scene works, why a performance stays with me, how music changes a moment or how a city looks through the camera.
My favourite film is Manhattan, but part of the enjoyment of building this archive is returning to films across the entire career and discovering new things in them.
