Biography | 経歴

[English] Allan Stewart Konigsberg, known professionally as Woody Allen, is an American film director, screenwriter, actor, and comedian who has created one of the most prolific and distinctive bodies of work in cinema history. Beginning as a comedy writer and stand-up comedian in the 1950s and 1960s, Allen transitioned to filmmaking with What’s Up, Tiger Lily? (1966). He established his signature neurotic, intellectual, New York-centric comedic style with films like Annie Hall (1977), which won four Academy Awards including Best Picture and Best Director. Over his six-decade career spanning more than 50 films, Allen has explored themes of relationships, mortality, existential anxiety, and the meaning of life, blending comedy and drama with literary and philosophical influences. His notable works include Manhattan (1979), Hannah and Her Sisters (1986), Crimes and Misdemeanors (1989), Husbands and Wives (1992), Bullets Over Broadway (1994), Midnight in Paris (2011), and Blue Jasmine (2013). Known for his rapid production pace (nearly one film per year), consistent visual style, jazz soundtracks, and ensemble casts of prestigious actors, Allen has won four Academy Awards and received 24 Oscar nominations. His personal life has been marked by controversy, particularly allegations made by his adopted daughter Dylan Farrow, which he has consistently denied.

[日本語] アラン・スチュワート・コニグスバーグ、芸名ウディ・アレンは、映画史上最も多作で独特な作品群の一つを創造したアメリカの映画監督、脚本家、俳優、コメディアンです。1950年代と1960年代にコメディ作家およびスタンダップコメディアンとして活動を開始し、『007/カジノロワイヤル』のパロディ『何かいいことないか子猫チャン』(1966)で映画製作に転身。神経質で知的なニューヨーク中心のコメディスタイルを『アニー・ホール』(1977)で確立し、同作は作品賞と監督賞を含む4つのアカデミー賞を受賞しました。50本以上の映画にわたる60年のキャリアで、アレンは人間関係、死、実存的不安、人生の意味といったテーマを探求し、文学的・哲学的影響を受けたコメディとドラマを融合させました。主な作品には『マンハッタン』(1979)、『ハンナとその姉妹』(1986)、『ウディ・アレンの重罪と軽罪』(1989)、『夫たち、妻たち』(1992)、『ブロードウェイと銃弾』(1994)、『ミッドナイト・イン・パリ』(2011)、『ブルージャスミン』(2013)があります。急速な製作ペース(ほぼ年1本)、一貫したビジュアルスタイル、ジャズサウンドトラック、名優たちのアンサンブルキャストで知られ、アレンは4つのアカデミー賞を受賞し、24回のオスカーノミネートを受けています。私生活は養女ディラン・ファローによる告発を中心に論争に見舞われており、アレンは一貫して否定しています。
