Scoop

In his second film in London, after the beloved Match Point, Woody Allen once again puts Scarlett Johansson at the centre of a mystery comedy that combines the filmmaker's trademark humour with his concerns (and, more importantly, his phobias) about mortality.

Synopsis

When an American journalism student in London attends the show of a magician called Waterman, she is visited by the ghost of a famous journalist, revealing that the amiable aristocrat Peter Lyman is in fact a serial killer. Immediately she, along with Waterman, takes it upon herself to get a press scoop.
