What a tragic title. And so is the title of this article in Der Spiegel, "'Nothing Pleases Me More than Being Thought of as a European Filmmaker.'" It seems that Woodly Allen is joining an increasing number of American actors and filmmakers who are ashamed of being Americans but not too ashamed of the fame and fortune they've acquired and made possible by the freedom and free market capitalism that America provides.
Here is a brilliant quote from Allen. "There is nothing really redeeming about tragedy. Tragedy is tragic...."
Oh, really? How's that?
Life maybe sad and full of tragedy, but it doesn't necessarily mean it's meaningless.
