Scarlett Johansson's film, Scoop, collaboration with Allen, was released on July 28, 2006. At the same year, Scarlett Johansson appeared in "Brian De Palma's The Black Dahlia", a film noir shot in LA and Bulgaria. Johansson has noted that she was a De Palma fan and had wanted to work with him on the film, even though Scarlett Johansson thought that she was "physically wrong" for the part.
Scarlett's reviews were mixed: CNN.com noted that Johansson "takes to the pulpy period atmosphere as if it were oxygen," whereas the Kalamazoo Gazette referred to Johansson as "miscast."
