Wa-Sin-City, D.C.http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A15795-2005Mar31.html?nav=rss_style/movies/d...

'Annie' Doesn't Live Here Anymore- April 24, 2005 Woody Allen's Manhattan has become a cultural prison-island where the collective guilt isn't criminal behavior, it's self-absorption and haute pretentiousness.http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A1131-2005Mar25.html?nav=rss_style/movies/de...
