What's Up Tiger Lily
1966, 80 minutes, Rated M
Woody Allen. Auteur. Modern Legend. Comic.
The man who gave us Manhattan, Annie Hall and Crimes and Misdemeanours. One of modern cinema's great artists and the world's funniest New Yorker.
Well, once upon a time, Woody - then known as Allen Konigsberg; stole a movie, made it his own, and whilst improving on the original created a minor comedy classic.
Set in the Japan of the mid 60s, the original is a long lost mid sixties curio of the kind later satirised by Mike Myers with Austin Powers.
The resulting film sees the cast desperate to discover the recipe for a particular egg salad, replete with sub 007 stylings. However, the new dialogue comes courtesy of Woody and friends.
