Bruni still in film, says Woody Allen

Woody Allen

Ace Hollywood filmmaker Woody Allen has refuted reports he cut scenes featuring French first lady Carla Bruni from his upcoming film, insisting he's delighted with her work.

The former model and singer joined Owen Wilson on the set of Midnight in Paris to film scenes as a tour guide back in July, but reports surfaced earlier this month claiming Allen was unhappy with Bruni's work and decided not to include her in the final edit, reports contactmusic.com.

But the 74-year-old filmmaker has dismissed the rumours, telling reporters everything the beauty filmed has made the movie.

"This is a hundred percent untrue. She's in the picture. Everything she shot is in the picture. I love her. She's great. It's not a big part, but it's a respectable part. Everything was totally made up," he said. He also cleared up reports Bruni was difficult to work with.

"She was no problem at all. I was delighted with her," he said. (taheena)

Scarlett Johansson, The New Image For Mango

American actress Scarlett Johansson is to be featured in our Autumn/Winter 09 campaign, thus becoming our new image.

We have chosen the beautiful actress for her extraordinary personality, which embodies the ideal of the urban, independent and cosmopolitan woman MANGO wishes to dress. A woman who is serene and elegant, yet fun-loving and youthful all at the same time.

With a fully consolidated acting career, Scarlett Johansson has proven her versatility throughout her professional career by playing a variety of roles. Her talent has been acknowledged by prestigious directors such as Christopher Nolan, Robert Redford, Brian De Palma and Sofia Coppola.

Born in New York in 1984, Johansson became famous thanks to her performance in the film The Horse Whisperer. Subsequently, her performance in Ghost World received critical acclaim. In 2004, her performance in Lost in Translation won her a BAFTA award for best starring role, a category she was also nominated for in Girl with a Pearl Earring. She also received Golden Globe nominations for both films the same year. After such a major international projection, she worked with legendary director Woody Allen in such films as Scoop and Vicky Cristina Barcelona, in which she appeared alongside Penélope Cruz. She also worked with Allen in Match Point, one of her biggest successes, once again winning her a Golden Globe nomination in 2006.
