Hollywood Ending (2002) is a film by Woody Allen that stars Allen as a washed-up Hollywood director who must humble himself to secure a prestigious assignment from his ex-wife, who is now a studio executive. The film is described as more ambitious than some of Allen's other works from the early 2000s, such as Small Time Crooks (2000) and The Curse of the Jade Scorpion (2001).1
