The indefatigable Woody Allen opened a play Friday night in, of all places, Budapest, Hungary.
“Brooklyn Tale” is about a gangster and his family who somehow obtain a painting by Raphael, then must cover it up. Can art transform the gangster into being a good person? That’s the question.
Woody did not travel to Budapest, but by all accounts the play was a hit. He did send a video message you’ll see below. He says in a few weeks he’ll turn 89, so his life is “half over,” but he hopes to return to the magical Hungarian city one day.
I hope we’ll see “Brooklyn Tale” staged here in New York one day.
