'Manhattan'


I've often wondered how one directs a film when they're in front of the camera 99 percent of the time. Not only has Woody Allen done it, he's done it a lot and done it well.
How do you direct when you have no real clue how the lighting, wardrobe, background, setting, actors and actresses look? Either lucky or good.

Another film in which the first five minutes are worth the price of admission. Those shots are breathtaking.
