Is it just me, or is Woody Allen's UES home a little bit…WASPy? It looks like the type of place owned by Diane Keaton's family in Annie Hall, instead of the "under the Cyclone" Brooklyn feel of Woody's own childhood. But whatevs, when Architectural Digest gives you a tour of one of New York's most famous iconoclasts, you don't complain.
You just look for all the creepy pedophile stuff. See if you can spot it in this picture:
A nosy Village Voice scribe stumbled across a large bundle of Miramax head Harvey Weinstein's garbage whilst in Tribeca the other night, and then he wrote about it for his paper. Besides making it abundantly clear that few scripts pass muster with the notoriously prickly and prickish Weinstein, the refuse also revealed that the mogul is quite a difficult man to get on the phone. After the jump, Harv's "need to call" list.

WOODY MODEST ABOUT THREESOME "Woody Allen has denied rumours of racy sex scenes between Penelope Cruz and Scarlett Johansson in upcoming movie Vicky Cristina Barcelona. Johansson and Cruz appear in a steamy scene together as well as taking part in a threesome with Spanish actor Javier Bardem, according to reports. The director admits that the film does feature a lesbian clinch - but 'not in the sense that they're (the press) suggesting.' … 'There are sex scenes between all the characters in the movie: between the men and the women, and the women and the women. That is accurate, but I'd say there's probably not even 20 seconds of sex in the whole picture.'"
Since 2006's unnecessary and unfortunate Miami Vice, Colin Farrell has been relatively silent. But now he's back in Woody Allen's new film Cassandra's Dream. What are your feelings about this reappearance? Excited? Bored? Nonplussed? What?

Midnight in Barcelona, Woody Allen's currently-in-production feature starring Scarlett Johansson, continues filming without the director or cast giving any hints as to what the plot is about. Insiders believe that the film will be a comedic piece, a break in Allen's recent string of dramas including Cassandra's Dream and Match Point, but no one seems sure. At a recent press conference, even when asked directly about his intentions for Barcelona, Allen answered mysteriously, saying only that he hopes to make a "classically 'Woody' comedy with a nod to Polanski thrown in for fun." Then he nudged a reporter with his elbow and subtly pointed at Johansson.
More hand-holding from which to draw inferences after the jump.

In an effort to bolster the ever-assailed decorum of the Internet, Mollygood looks to poetry with Someone Haiku. Each day—using 17 syllables or less—you’re given the opportunity to wax poetic about some piece of flotsam or jetsam that’s washed up on the shores of Mollygood. Hopefully this Zen practice will not only bathe you in self-discovery, but also bring a touch of Eastern class to a global network of information that’s devolved into nothing more than tit websites and provocative MySpace pictures.
Today's Someone Haiku winner is fitmt:
Perez’s response:
White dots under Jason’s nose.
Oh snap! How witty.
Very well done, fitmt. I liked that one very much.
New one after the jump.
