London: Woody Allen says his daughters arenot very impressed by his filmmaking career.

The 77-year-old filmmaker, who has two adolescentdaughters Bechet Dumaine and Manzie Tio with wife Soon-YiPrevin, said his children are not interested in watchingmovies made by him.

"My children have expressly said: 'Dad, you are such aloser.' I am quoting directly there. They are totallyunimpressed with what I do, or by me. I've made 45 movies orso, and I think one of the girls has seen two of them, andthat's it," Allen said.

"They go to the movies with their friends and see thedrivel that their peer group watches. You know they're nicekids but they have no interest in me. They see me as an idiotsavant who can make films but can't change his typewriterribbon," he added.

The Oscar-winning filmmaker is well known for his hitmovie like Annie Hall, Manhattan, Hannah and HerSisters and Midnight in Paris among others.
