Two Academy-Award Winners In Exile

________________________________________________________________________________________________

 

 

Woody Allen 

must wear a disguise

to attend 

New York Knick basketball games

 

Will Smith

—the actor, not the Dodger— 

must wear disguises

to be admitted to 5-Star Restaurants

but he looks fetching

in a red gown

 

And Woody easily passes for

a fat Jewish bald man

with a limp 

 

They met

at a Pickle Ball court

in Central Park

—undisguised—

because anyone

on the courts 

resembling a celebrity

is considered nothing more 

than an attention-getting 

cheap trick

 

********************************* 

According to the

Institute of Inane Results,

Mr. Allen and Mr. Smith

are working on a sequel to

Purple Rose of Cairo

 

The title is

The Purple Grape of Jericho Turnpike 

*********************************

 

It is the reverse 

of Purple Cairo:

an audience member

—named Cortez— 

walks into the movie screen

and all hell breaks loose

in the film

 

In reality, 

Cortez

 is 

a hard-core gangbanger

on Long Island 

who will shoot anyone

capable of criminal behavior

  

Virtually every character

in the movie

fits that description  

****************** 

The 

Woody Allen/Will Smith 

collaboration

is a "Work-In-Progress"

******************

  

Hopefully,

the Institute of Inane Research

will keep us updated 

on its progress
