Classic Kosher Comedy Corner: Vintage Woody Allen
>> Thursday, May 14, 2009
He was a writer for Sid Ceasar at age 16, a Broadway playwright by his 30s, and an Oscar winning director at 40. Then, he became synonymous with scandal when he married his ex-adopted-stepdaughter. Yipes!
Let's visit that era in-between all that. Today we'll feature some vintage Woody for today's Classic Kosher Comedy Corner.
Here are two amazing clips. One from his absolutely classic routine, "The Moose" and the other, an excerpt from a rare Canadian documentary.
The moose may be one of Woody Allen's most famous routines, but it is still delightful, and reminds us of why we loved Woody Allen in the first place.
We Heart Jews, but we also heart Canadians. A lot. Thank you, Canada for this vintage peek into Woody Allen's disturbed and hilarious brain!
"I was raised in the Jewish tradition, taught never to marry a Gentile, women shave on Saturday and most especially never to shave a Gentile woman on Saturday."
-- Woody Allen
