Woody Wants to Direct French First Lady Carla Bruni

19 June 2009 10:54 PM, PDT | From GetTheBigPicture.net | See recent Get The Big Picture news

Here's a story notable for two reasons: 1) It involves a current First Lady, and 2) Woody Allen gave an interview. Allen, who doesn't exactly find himself on the press circuit to support his movies, told France's Rtl radio that he might like to work with Carla Bruni-Sarkozy, former supermodel and current wife of French president Nicolas Sarkozy.

The talk turned on the Bruni when Allen was asked about shooting a film in Paris, which the director reportedly plans to do next year. "I'm sure she would be wonderful," Allen said through a translator. "She's got charisma, she's already acted so she's not unknown to an audience.

"There are a lot of ways I could use her though I don't have a story for her at the moment," Allen added. "But I'll certainly talk to her about it and I'll ask her if she's interested."
