(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Woody Allen looks for women who are attractive in a kind of cheap way.

The 74-year-old director is praised for his iconic movies such as Annie Hall, Scoop and Deconstructing Harry.

Woody is also known for his love of beautiful women, and has been married three times. The film legend is now married to Soon-Yi Previn, and they have been happily in union since 1997. Woody feels grateful his wife understands his manly desires, and he has jokingly said he likes his ladies to be a little raunchy.

Im lucky. I happen to be in a good marriage. I have a certain amount of shallow needs apart from the fact that the woman has to have a good sense of humour and be intelligent and kind, she also has to be attractive and attractive in kind of cheap way, he laughed in an interview with Total Film.

Woody isnt as attracted to chic women like classy 1950s film icon Audrey Hepburn. The director says hes always been far more interested in traditional sex symbols, like blonde bombshell Marilyn Monroe.

I am not looking for elegance. I much prefer Marilyn Monroe to Audrey Hepburn, he added. (C) Cover Media
