When it first appeared in 1991, Eric Lax's splendid biography, written with nineteen years of access to Woody Allen, was universally hailed as the definitive portrait of a film genius. The next year, as Allen's long relationship with Mia Farrow disintegrated amid scandal, a new phase of his life and work began. For this edition, Lax has written a chapter on the breakup and the personal and professional changes that followed. He chronicles Allen's next eight films, from Shadows and Fog to Small Time Crooks, and again offers Woody's candid opinions of his art and himself. Published to coincide with Allen's sixty-fifth birthday, this updated biography will continue to be "required reading for Woodyphiles" (Kansas City Star).

Jag läste den svenska översättningen, och måhända gör den inte originalet rättvisa. Jag tyckte den var repetitiv på sina ställen, i synnerhet som författaren hela tiden ville förklara vad som gjorde Woody Allen till Woody Allen. Men den är också mycket intressant ibland.
