Scoop
Woody Allen continues his love affair with London, following up thriller 'Match Point' with this comic supernatural mystery that once again stars Scarlett Johansson. This time she is American journalism student Sondra who gets tangled up with a third rate magician (Allen), and the spirit of a murdered reporter (Ian McShane) who may just have the story of the decade for her. The ghostly informant believes aristocrat Peter Lyman (Hugh Jackman) is leading a double life as a serial killer, but as Sondra investigates, she finds herself becoming dangerously attached to her subject. Allen is back on familiar comic territory here, and has produced a lightweight charmer that will delight fans.
