In any case, it's a sad story and Woody and Dylan need our prayers.
“”Mia Farrows brother sentenced to 10 years in jail for sexually abusing two young boys””
John Villers-Farrow, 67, allegedly began abusing one of his accusers when he was 9 years old and the other at 8.
Latest narrative is that she has a “false memory”.
The goofballs here defending Allen or questioning Dylan should read all they can on what took place 20 years ago
The allegations
The comments by a half dozen folks involved
Then ask why Dylan is still claiming this
If you do all that and still think Allen innocent
Then you are either stupid or prejudiced towards always thinking perhaps falsely accused
This is a case far worse than Polanski
In the piece above, they seem only concerned with Cate Blanchett's award...
Her character was so obnoxious I couldn't get through five minutes.
To be clear, my prior comment was not defending the sleazeball...
Soon Yi was not his adopted daughter. Allen and Farrow weren't married either.
As much as I think Allen is really trash for what he did to a woman and children that he clearly never considered his ‘family’, there was always something that struck me as, how should I put this, let me say questionable about these allegations.
This was all alleged during the initial revelations of his relationship with his other “daughter” Soon Yi Previn, and it all just seemed a tad coincidental to me.
I make no judgement and do not seek to be contentious.
It was pretty clear to me reading an article about Ronan Farrow that Woody Allen did a lot of damage to that family. Does Mia Farrow bear some responsibility for that? (I’ve listened to too much Dr Laura not to ask that question!) Yes, probably. But, nevertheless, Allen is an adult, clearly not a stupid person, and he chose to really hurt a lot of people who loved him, without hesitation or remorse.
Latest narrative is that she has a false memory.
At the time, the psychiatrist who interviewed her nine times said her story constantly changed, and that she had been coached.
“Fact....he seduced & married his adopted daughter
What more do you need”
I need a real fact for starters. For example, the girl he seduced and married, soon yi, was never his adopted daughter. She is the adopted daughter of his former girlfriend, mia.
If she had been coached, her story would not have changed nine times.
Yep - I thought I had an opinion - until reading the article on the DailyBeast.
I’m with you you, the whole thing is just sad...
First i’ve heard that. Yuck.
I don’t believe Allen’s movies are funded by Hollywood. I think most of his money comes from Europe these days. After he had a major fight with Jean Doumanian years ago, the Safra funding from her boyfriend dried up. That was a dumb move too, Woody! But at least your sister got a job out of it.
Wow, just wow. Dylan has my sympathy. And Woody Allen can rot in hell.
These accusations have no basis in what authorities have found regarding this case. Mia Farrow is money hungry.
If she had been coached, her story would not have changed nine times.
You’re right. The doctor, an expert in child abuse pediatrics, who worked for the state, said she either made up the story or she was coached.
Sorry but he lost any possibility of credibility when he married his daughter.
They deny that.
