Dylan Farrow’s brother: She wasn’t abused [Woody Allen]
New York Post ^ | February 5, 2014 | Emily Smith

Posted on 02/05/2014 10:11:36 AM PST by grundle

Following Dylan Farrow’s harrowing letter describing sexual molestation she says she suffered from father Woody Allen – her brother Moses is speaking out to defend Allen, accusing their mother Mia of poisoning them against their father.

Responding to accusation first made 20 years ago that has bitterly divided the family, Moses accused Mia Farrow of turning him and Dylan against Allen as revenge for his affair with Soon-Yi.

“Of course Woody did not molest my sister,” says Moses, who is estranged from Mia Farrow and remains close to Allen and Soon-Yi.

“My mother drummed it into me to hate my father for tearing apart the family and sexually molesting my sister,” Moses, 36, tells People Magazine’s new issue. “And I hated him for her for years. I see now that this was a vengeful way to pay him back for falling in love with Soon-Yi.”

Allen, 78, has denied abusing Dylan, arguing that Farrow, 69, coached Dylan, an accusation that Farrow refutes. Allen was investigated when the allegation was first made but not charged with molestation.

Speaking of Dylan’s childhood relationship with the Hollywood director, Moses continued, “She loved him and looked forward to seeing him when he would visit. She never hid from him until our mother succeeded in creating the atmosphere of fear and hate towards him.

“The day in question, there were six or seven of us in the house. We were all in public rooms and no one, not my father or sister, was off in any private spaces. My mother was conveniently out shopping.

“I don’t know if my sister really believes she was molested or is trying to please her mother. Pleasing my mother was very powerful motivation because to be on her wrong side was horrible.”

The media NEVER, EVER tells all the story, even if/when they have “all” the facts. There is ALWAYS something left out, thanks to some numb-nut editor who wants a Pulitzer.

Who knows who is telling the truth, the language of liberals is lying so the daughter could be lying but so could this kid, so could Mia, so could Woody. That’s why they’re all insane.

Hmmmm...who to believe? Facts: Woody Allen married the adopted daughter, Soon-Yi Previn, of Mia Farrow, and Farrow discovered nude photographs that Allen had taken of Soon-Yi, who was around 20 years old then. The facts paint the picture of a very unusual man.

And seeking the love of a father is a strong motivator as well.Sad to see a family torn apart like this.I tend to believe the letter written by Dylan.Who would want to expose themselves in this way unnless it were true.Her feeling of betrayal by those who revere her “father”rings true.

“...didn’t Woody Allen marry his adopted daughter?”

Soon-Yi never was Allen’s adopted daughter. She was the adopted daughter of Mia Farrow and Andre Previn. Still, very abnormal behavior on his part.

Marrying your adopted half retarded daughter is strange indeed. But it’s a huge leap from there to he was molesting his kids. Is Woody Allen weird? Absolutely. However, these charges are tenous at best so we have to give the leftist the benefit of the doubt.

I don’t suppose any of them would agree to a lie detector test.

adopted half retarded daughter

Been pointed out that she wasn't his adopted daughter and even (news to me) that Allen never lived in the home with Mia while Soon Yi was there.

Also someone on FR noted yesterday that Soon Yi graduated from Columbia, I think, and speaks a half dozen languages, something like that.

Screwed-up man, disastrous family. From the little I've read about them I think Soon Yi may be the one closest to normal.

Mia Farrow is a friend and defender of Roman Polanski. Go figure.

There’s enough craziness in that family to fuel a nuclear power plant.
