Jazz In A Woody Allen Movie: "Fading Gigolo"

.
I watched 'Fading Gigolo' last night. I have a tendency to watch anything involving Woody Allen. The soundtrack featured Gene Ammons music. The intro of 'Canadian Sunset' was smoking. Check it out if you get a minute. It was one of the best jazz soundtracks in recent memory.

Oh, the movie was just so-so...

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

No. It was not a Woody Allen movie. No it was not shoot in
Manhattan but Brooklyn. And if you are not a Jew from NYC,
you do not have a clue between the Upper East or West Side,
and Williamsburg or Ocean Parkway. Woody is from Brooklyn and that is brought out in his movies, but in reality, he is a Manhattanite. Probably this was his first movie in Brooklyn in years. Which is ironic., Perhaps he was anointing for his past sins. ;-)))

Mitch are you a New Yorker? I mean are you a Manhattanite
or Brooklynite?

Shubertmaniac, did you see 'Fading Gigolo'? have you ever seen a Woody Allen movie?

I have seen them all.

I don't care who's credited as the director, this was a Woody Allen movie. As Jazzcourier said above, it is vintage Woody shtick, right out of his best films. If you've ever seen more than one Woody Allen film, you'd know that.
