Woody Allen 'Scarlett Johansson touched by God'

Woody Allen claims Scarlett Johansson has been touched by God.

The legendary director believes the stunning actress, who is starring in his latest film, is a fantastic talent.

He said: "Scarlett is just a naturally great actress. She can do no wrong and is incapable of a bad moment. She's very sexy, very pretty. She was just touched by God."

Scarlett was given the role at the last minute after Kate Winslet pulled out. Meanwhile, Woody has revealed he begged producers not to release his award-winning movie 'Manhattan' - because he didn't think it was good enough.

The moviemaker says he was not happy with the finished version of the film and tried to buy back the rights to it.

He told Britain's Observer newspaper: "I tried to buy 'Manhattan' back, because I was disappointed with it.

I wished I could get them not to release it and I even offered to do a free film for them instead." However, the star says he is pleased it was eventually released.

He added: "I'm pleased because it was such a big success. I always think with films like that that I got away with something."
