Woody's Family Settles in Spain

Woody's Family Settles in Spain

Woody Allen arrives in Barcelona, Spain on Monday, accompanied by wife Soon-Yi Previn and their daughters Bechet, 8, and Manzie, 7. (They carried and pulled their own luggage!)

Woody, 71, and Soon-Yi, 36, plans on staying in Spain for a few months to film his yet-to-be-titled summer film project starring Penelope Cruz, Scarlett Johansson and Javier Bardem. The ‘Woody Allen Spanish Project’ is scheduled for a 2008 release.

Some background: Bechet was named after jazz clarinetist Sidney Bechet. Manzie was named after Manzie Johnson, a drummer with Bechet‘s band.

Sadly I cannot not look at these people without thinking about Mia farrow and that whole situation. I guess something like that never fully dies down. :|

Beyond way too much. The man is disgusting. I don’t understand why people still even respect the guy and star in his HORRIBLE movies.

I agree Nadira, but they’re lasting longer than most couples in Hollywood, so they must be doing something right.

#5, I could be mistaken but Im pretty sure they are their bioligical children.

The whole situation is just… odd.

I’ve been over this whole Woody Allen thing for ages. But, you know… I have to say I’m surprised they stayed together this long. I can’t believe she’s 36 years old already.

Nadira: I could not agree with you more. If it weren’t for Mia, this chick would probably be out in the street selling herself. WAIT, she did do that — and look what she got! YUCK!!!

CREEPY. AND HIS FILMS SUCK NOW.

He’s arguably the WORST “film maker” in history.

Over rated? The fact that he’s rated at all is insane.

Prime example of a certain religion favouring their own.

F*ck that demented old r*tard.

He makes cr@p that’s lapped up by pseudo intellectual half wits.

Kelly: I don’t understand how actors like Scarlet Johanson can make a movie with this creep!! I did see ‘Match Point’, which was very good. I would NOT have if Woody’s ugly mug was in it, though. The man makes me want to use the toilet!!

Oh realy, Milli? I stand corrected then. Sorry about that. ^__^

I am surprised that he was allowed to adopt any kid considering he slept and married one of his adopted kids in the past

I never believed Farrow about all this. He all of a sudden became a child molester in his late 50s? Not likely.

She just used the dynamite charge of child abuse as payback for his leaving her for her adopted daughter. I understand the anger and pain but it doesn’t justify false charges.

They are his biological children with Soon Yi.

How long have they been together, Madgie? Its so rare for a hollywood couple to last more than 5 years or so. With the few acceptions of Rita & Tom and Danny and Rhea and a couple of others ofcourse.

Ew Milli, if he does I seriously think he should be banned from society. Who on earth would give someone who behaved the way he did a child? I know quite a few couples and even singles who would kill for an adoption to happen and would make fantastic parents, but financially they do not qualify. And yet because Allen has money he’s permitted to adopt. It just sucks.

WOW magnus:

how about adding a little “I THINK” or — in my opinion to your post..

also — religion?!? i am a muslim and i love his earlier films, many people do in my country..

you are attempting to insult those who love his work but you just end up sounding a wee bit ignorant — with all due respect ;)

How strange…one daughter looks exactly like Soon-yi and the other looks exactly like Woody Allen…so strange
