"He's one of those ass-holes who makes all his movies in black and
white." So is proclaimed about 1/3 the way through Woody Allen's latest
film, Celebrity, in a movie theatre scene. As in many of his films, this

Woody Allen's 29th cinematic feature celebrates the blinded attention
that people pay celebrities in contemporary society. Another jam-packed
