How to use woody in a sentence?

1. Woody Allen:

   If this was years ago, I would have played this part much more narrowly Woody Allen because I'm a comedian, not Woody Allen. Kristen Stewart and Jesse Eisenberg gave it much more complexity.

2. Blake Lively:

   But it wasn’t just Woody, he made three homophobic comments in a row. A Hitler joke. And a rape joke. It was all within 30 seconds … What on Earth was happening? It was really confusing.

3. Matthew Goodman:

   As Woody Allen said, either 80 or 85 percent of life is showing up. And in the Indo-Pacific, that's definitely true, if you show up, you're given praise, whatever you actually say or do. If you don't show up, it's a real problem.

4. Tony Oppedisano:

   When she was beginning to have problems with Woody [Allen] she was looking for some comfort and it was like two old friends catching up, she was devastated and he was there to support her.

5. Ian Shoales:

   Sigmund Freud was a half baked Viennese quack. Our literature, culture, and the the films of Woody Allen would be better today if Freud had never written a word.
