Initiated by producer-director Pierre Drouot, Woody Allen for the very first time agrees to let a filmmaker, Belgium's André Delvaux, film him during one of his own productions, Stardust Memories. Woody talks about his work, always steering clear of the anecdotal or the private.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This was Delvaux's only documentary; he spent his career making fiction films about memory and obsession, so of course he was drawn to Woody's.
The 1.0 TMDB rating is almost certainly vote brigading from Allen's post-2018 cancellation, not actual 1980s viewers — making the film's subject (public image vs. private reality) ironically prophetic.
