Ep 31: 1995 - Mighty Aphrodite *Discussion*

Back on the retrospective with a fun raunchy comedy that gives a somewhat unexpected feel good aftertaste when all is said and done!   Mighty Aphrodite (1995) has Lenny Weinrib (Woody Allen), an adopted child's father, embark on a quest to find his son's biological mother, leading him to Linda Ash (Mira Sorvino), a former porn star turned prostitute.   Lenny's discovery of Linda's past challenges his preconceptions about her and the circumstances surrounding his son's adoption. As he delves deeper into Linda's life, he uncovers vulnerabilities and complexities, revealing a woman far different from his initial assumptions.   This film explores themes of parenthood, love, and the nature of family, questioning the importance of biological origins and the bonds formed through shared experiences.   Please check out the links below for the full cast, user reviews, ratings and info you may find interesting   Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mighty_Aphrodite   IMDb: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0113819/   Rotten Tomatoes: https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/mighty_aphrodite   ____________________   A VERY Special Thanks to The Woody Allen Pages Website & The Woody Allen Subreddit for the continued support and info – check them out for the latest from the Woody Allen Fan Community!!   https://www.woodyallenpages.com     &    https://www.reddit.com/r/woodyallen   PLEASE LEAVE A COMMENT TO THIS OR ANY OTHER EPISODE USING OUR COMMENT SECTION VIDEO LINK HERE   >>>>>>>  https://bit.ly/warpcom   IF YOU LIKE THE SHOW, PLEASE CONSIDER BUYING US A COFFEE / GIVING US A TIP VIA OUR PATREON CAMPAIGN  >>> https://www.patreon.com/woodyretro   Thanks for listening as always - we would also LOVE a review on iTunes or a 5 star rating via Spotify or whichever podcast platform you are listening on - please find all our connected links below.   >>>   https://linktr.ee/woodyretro
