Script review – “Bullets Over Broadway” by Woody Allen and Douglas McGrath

An absolutely wonderful script – bright, fast paced, logical, well structured, funny, even moving (the involvement of Cheech, the playwright’s realisation that he’s not talented) and with something to say (about the nature of art and collaboration). It doesn't have a traditional hero - it starts off as the playwright but ends up about the gangster - but that makes it more unpredictable. I loved it - why doesn't Woody collaborate more often?
