Woody Allen: 9/11 was " not profound..."

Woody Allen, in Der Spiegel says that the events of 9/11 were not profound enough to be interested in them myself as an artist. Fair enough. This pseudo-intellectual twit would only trivialize an issue as large and terrible as 9/11.

But is this guy is an " artist " at all? Only in the sense that a Brooklyn Cyclone infielder is a pro baseball player. Poor neurotic Woody had some funny ( funny ha-ha ) movies very early in his career, followed by a number of slavishly contrived imitations of Fellini, Bergman, other European filmmakers.

Wood-man, you're not qualified to say what is profound.
