question: WHO DIRECTED A FILM WRITTEN BY THE ACTRESS WHO WAS MARRIED TO WOODY ALLEN AND APPEARED IN HIS EARLY FILMS?
answer: John Erman
context: Title: Zelig
  Passage: Zelig is a 1983 American mockumentary film written and directed by Woody Allen and starring Allen and Mia Farrow.  Allen plays Leonard Zelig, a nondescript enigma who, out of his desire to fit in and be liked, takes on the characteristics of strong personalities around him.  The film, presented as a documentary, recounts his intense period of celebrity in the 1920s and includes analyses from contemporary intellectuals.
  Title: Match Point
  Passage: Match Point is a 2005 British-Luxembourgish psychological thriller film written and directed by Woody Allen and starring Jonathan Rhys Meyers, Scarlett Johansson, Emily Mortimer, Matthew Goode, Brian Cox, and Penelope Wilton.  In the film, Rhys Meyers's character marries into a wealthy family, but his social position is threatened by his affair with his brother-in-law's girlfriend, played by Johansson.  The film treats themes of morality, greed, and the roles of lust, money, and luck in life, leading many to compare it to Allen's earlier film "Crimes and Misdemeanors" (1989).  It was produced and filmed in London after Allen had difficulty finding financial support for the film in New York.  The agreement obliged him to make it there using a cast and crew mostly from the United Kingdom.  Allen quickly re-wrote the script, which was originally set in New York, for a British setting.
