Right of publicity and trademark lawsuit by Woody Allen, that is! Marty Schwimmer reports and links, and has the complaint, too. Plus a picture of the offending billboard, which I can’t exactly figure out how to get a legit “fair use” copy of.
Query: Why no copyright claim? The photo was cadged from Annie Hall, after all.

Allen probably does not own the copyright.
Maybe not. Yet that would seem to be the strongest claim here, so I wonder why its owner would not have joined in.
