Scoop

Scoop

2006

A young American journalist hits the jackpot when she chances upon a major scoop and falls for an upper-crust Brit in this Woody Allen comedy. While visiting friends in London, college journalism student Jade Spence (Scarlett Johansson) beats out Britain's reporters by exposing a story involving murder and magic, and just as the story heats up, so do things between Jade and a hunky aristocrat (Hugh Jackman). Allen and Ian McShane co-star.

The perfect man. The perfect story. The perfect murder.

User Reviews

  • Good mystery flick, would have been an even better one had Woody Allen decided to stay behind the camera.
