Allen vs. Charney


Director Woody Allen is suing American Apparel and it's CEO Dov Charney for $10million for using an image of Allen dressed as a hisidic rabi on their advertisments withyout permission. In a recient interview Allen claimed that he wouldnt mind selling himself to a produuct however "it would have to be for a lot of money and a classy, whitty and intelectually cleaver advertisment". American Apparel's lawyers are claiming that issues surronding Allen and Mia Farroow and his merriage to her adopted daughter Soon-Yi has damaged his reputation and therefor he is not worth anywhere near $10million. The trial date has been set for May 18th 2009 at the Manhattan federal court.
