Woody Allen tells Alec Baldwin he might quit directing after “one or two” films

Filmmaker Woody Allen has hinted that he may soon be ending his career as a director after making “maybe one or two” more films in a chat with Alex Baldwin. "I'll probably make at least one more movie, but a lot of the thrill is gone because it doesn't have the whole cinema effect," Allen said in an Instagram Live with Alec Baldwin. "When I started to do a film, it would go into movie houses all over the country and people would come by the hundreds to watch it in big groups on a big screen. Now you do a movie and you get a couple of weeks in a movie house — maybe six weeks, two weeks, or whatever — and then it goes right to streaming or right to Pay-Per-View." Woody Allen spoke with Alec Baldwin to promote his new collection of short stories titled “Zero Gravity” that was just released this month. The interview touched on Allen’s writing process, his love of The New Yorker and music, as well as other reflections on his film and comedy career. “I don’t ge
