What’s your favorite Woody Allen movie? Before you answer, you should know: when I was seven years old, Woody Allen took me by the hand and led me into a dim, closet-like attic on the second floor of our house.
(Excerpt) Read more at kristof.blogs.nytimes.com ...
“That he got away with what he did to me haunted me as I grew up.”
I’m not all that quick to believe stuff I read on the internet but if Allen did do what this accuser claims he did he won’t get away with it forever. A terrible threat awaits him in the Face of God.
Somebody should ask Mia Farrow why she is still friends with and a supporter of Roman Polanski
There are several instances of people in the entertainment industry abusing young children. They are almost always covered up by the Media.
While you always have to be careful with these charges, this has the ring of truth, and I think Allen is a deviant who should be stripped of all awards.
Mia Farrow is NUTS. Follow her on Facebook for two weeks and you will know just what a nut she is.
One of the Coreys was passed around. Maybe Corey Feldman The girl from LIttle House on the Prairie said a lot of people knew about it.
Hollywood is filled with sexual deviants
When both parents dismiss the traditional family and morality chaos happens and the children are hurt the most.
Oh I know she’s nuts. And so is Allen. What happened is horrible and a familial mess, but she’s not an entirely innocent person or the saint people make her out to be.
I’ve always thought that guy was haywire. Neither my wife nor I ever watch his movies.
She shows a lot of courage especially when she calls out Woody’s Hollywood pals by name.
“What if it had been your child, Cate Blanchett? Louis CK? Alec Baldwin? What if it had been you, Emma Stone? Or you, Scarlett Johansson? You knew me when I was a little girl, Diane Keaton. Have you forgotten me?”
I don't know that I agree that he gets a pass because he a libtard/socialist. I think it's more that Hollywood believes 'artists' are above the standards that apply to us untalented nobodies. I think that's why Polanski gets a pass as well. I will say that if he were a conservative, they'd throw him under the bus as they did Mel Gibson; so there is something to being a leftist that adds invulnerability to some sickos.
Frank’s apparent son is MSNBC snot Ronan Farrow
I agree.
Seeing Diane Keaton sing for Woody Allen was beyond sickening..I wonder if she would have sang a song for him had he molested her child..whats weird is that Mia Farrow supports Polanski, he’s a rapist too
Ronan, not Dylan (daughter), is the Frank Sinatra look alike son. Dylan wrote this letter about Woody Allen.
Do Woody and Sun Yee, is that her name?, have any children together? I pray not.
I would recommend people read the following articles:

Some relevant bits:
“Did this event actually occur? If we’re inclined to give it a second thought, we can each believe what we want, but none of us know. Why does the adult Malone say it happened? Because she obviously believes it did, so good for her for speaking out about it in Vanity Fair. Her brother Ronan believes it happened, so good for him for sticking up for his sister in 140 characters or less. They’ve both grown up in a household where this scenario has been accepted as indisputable fact, so why shouldn’t they believe it?
I know I’m treading a delicate path here, and opening myself up to accusations of “blaming the victim.” However, I’m merely floating scenarios to consider, and you can think what you will. But if Mia’s account is true, it means that in the middle of custody and support negotiations, during which Woody needed to be on his best behavior, in a house belonging to his furious ex-girlfriend, and filled with people seething mad at him, Woody, who is a well-known claustrophobic, decided this would be the ideal time and place to take his daughter into an attic and molest her, quickly, before a house full of children and nannies noticed they were both missing.
Even people who give Woody the benefit of the doubt and defend him on the internet are often confused on a few points. Some mistakenly say that the court found him “not guilty” of the molestation charges. The fact is there was never such a ruling because he was never charged with a crime, since investigative authorities never found credible evidence to support Mia’s (and Dylan’s) claim.”
And the other bit:
“A heavy piece of fact seems to have broken off of a much larger and buried truth. However, on April 20, 1993, a sworn statement was entered into evidence by family doctor, Dr. John M. Leventhal.
“[Dr. Leventhal] swears Dylan’s statements at the hospital contradicted each other as well as the story she told on the videotape,” claims Allen friend Robert B. Weide, in a report for The Daily Beast.
Citing Leventhal, Weide recants that the doctor said, “Those were not minor inconsistencies. She told us initially that she hadn’t been touched in the vaginal area, and she then told us that she had, then she told us that she hadn’t.”
Leventhal, later in his sworn statement, also recounted: “Even before the claim of abuse was made last August, the view of Mr. Allen as an evil and awful and terrible man permeated the household. The view that he had molested Soon-Yi and was a potential molester of Dylan permeated the household...it’s quite possible—as a matter of fact, we think it’s medically probable—that [Dylan] stuck to that story over time because of the intense relationship she had with her mother.”
In conclusion is Woody Allen’s relationship with Soon-Yi pretty odd... yup, kind of creepy too. But the “facts” about the alleged molestation of Dylan are just not credible.
Mia Farrow is nuts... and I would be too if my adoptive daughter later ran off with my ex-lover. But ultimately she has poisoned the well and there’s simply no way to know the truth and there’s certainly no evidence whatsoever to back up Mia Farrow’s claims.

So sad.
