In a rare interview, Woody Allen did not rule out Tuesday June 28 that his next film, which will be shot in Paris, is the last, saying he has lost
“a lot of (his) enthusiasm”
for cinema.

The latter is at the heart of the turmoil after having accidentally killed during a shoot in October the director of photography of one of his films.
