Although many of Director Woody Allen’s movies have been photographed in striking black & white, he chose to film his 1987 comedy, Radio Days, in rich color. Woody painted nostalgic picture of American family life during the Golden Age of Radio.
Allen narrates the film which features Mia Farrow, Diane Keaton, Diane Wiest, Julie Kavner and Josh Mostel.
Of course, we at Jimmy McHugh Music love the scene where Wiest’s character, alone in her bedroom, does the Samba while lip-syncing to Carmen Miranda's classic recording of South American Way (which just happens to be written by Senor Jimmy McHugh).
Allen received an Academy Award © nomination for Best Original Screenplay.
