Jazz In A Woody Allen Movie: "Fading Gigolo"

The film is written,directed and stars John Turturro.Allen pretty much tells the story of the film and it is vintage Woody shtick,right out of his best films.The divine tenor saxophone of the great Gene Ammons is a recurring musical motif and much of it is culled from the sessions reissued under the name " The Gentle Jug" on Prestige Records.Anytime you hear good Jazz in a film it is a plus!

That movie was classic Woody. I find it hard to believe Allen didn't write or direct that movie. I think he did, but for some reason, he wanted Turturro to take the credit. Why? God only knows. Allen's mind works in mysterious ways.

I agree with you Chayro. Even though it says written and directed by Tuturro, it was a Woody Allen movie.
