I saw 7 including top 4. no 10s, 9 not favorite rosemary’s baby(it’s been 45 years since I saw it , maybe time for a second chance). no hidden gems, I am not a big fan of woody allen movies or his personal life.
Hey bob cox….thanks for the feedback on Mia Farrow. 45 years since Rosemary’s Baby? I agree it is probably time to re-visit that one. Woody had his day in the sun…but those days are long over. Good stuff.
I feel like I have seen her in more than I am aware, but cannot be sure, I have seen 1 movie of hers at that was Be Kind Rewind, which was terrible. Unfortunately, not enough data for a further breakdown.
Seen: 1/42 or 2%

Only one Mia Farrow movie? I have failed you as a father. At this point in your life, your tally should be so much higher. The Purple Rose of Cairo, Rosemary’s Baby, Zelig, and Hannah and Her Sisters shoud have been seen already. Get in your car, and we will watch The Purple Rose of Cairo tonight! Good stuff.
