EPIX honors the 8 nights of Hanukkah with 8 nights of a different kind of Jewish heritage -- guilt, neurosis and self-deprecation... 8 nights of Woody Allen! From his Academy Award® nominated drama to his “early funny ones” 8 Nights Of Woody on EPIX gives Woody Allen fans a complete 8 night retrospective featuring 13 films, including some of his most acclaimed works -- “Love & Death”, “Interiors” and “The Purple Rose Of Cairo”. And, because the movies are also available anytime on FiOS video-on-demand and online at EpixHD.com, it truly is the gift that keeps on giving.
Celebrate the OY of the season with a legendary kosher auteur!
