    I was watched this very disturbing behavior

    It’s a good documentary. There’s lots of home footage where you can see how intense he is with Dylan and how infatuated he was with her when she was a child. He is an absolute creep

    Haven't seen this. All sorts of allegations flying around in the Farrow / Allen saga. At the very least, Allen's relationship with the adopted daughter crossed serious boundaries - and calling it weird would be kind.

    With that being said, it's worth reading is Moses Farrow's blog who takes a very different view, and he accuses Mia of being physically and emotionally abusive towards some of the kids. Two of them died of suicide (according to Moses) and one of them from Aids.

    A toxic family unit whichever way you cut it.

    It's a very poor, one-sided, lazy, propaganda 'documentary' posing as investigative journalism.

    For starters, it doesn't involve Woody, Soon Yi or Moses, the latter who is adamant that his mother Mia is a raging nut.

    Secondly, the documentary uses National Enquirer-esque gutter reporting, rehashing old interviews, and ignoring that two separate state investigations found that Woody Allen was innocent of all accusations.

    The documentary also manipulated interviews to suit their case, as Samantha Jane Geimer revealed on Twitter and she is now suing the makers for doing so.

    No mention either of the fact that the Farrows are a supremely damaged family, full of incest, sex crimes and suicides. A quick google search will show you how dark they are.


    Shockingly made documentary that highlights the power of narrative in an age where people will swallow pretty much anything if they see or hear it.

    In addition, Si Yoo was never WA's daughter in law. It's another narrative pushed that's fake. She never lived with him, barely spoke until she was of age and a very important detail is this, the fact that they are still together to this day speaks volumes.

    The question shouldn't be is he the one that got away.

    Ask yourself how many people have been prosecuted against how many have been accused or suspected.

    Harvey Weinstein is the highest profile case but who else? I don't know and I wouldn;t like to hazard any guesses.

    He was receiving therapy for an inappropriately intense fixation of Dylan. She is also on camera as a child detailing where he touched her. Pretty bizarre how you can dismiss those things.

    Ever heard of coaching?

    Feel free to dispute the other points that clearly show the documentary is a nonsense while you're at it.

    Bit weird you'd take the word of a deranged woman and a shockingly one-sided documentary full of holes over 2 separate state investigations by the way.

    I’m taking the word of a child who confessed on camera that she was sexually abused by Woody, the man who had to enter therapy for an intense fixation on her when she was little more than a baby, the man who cheated on Mia with the daughter she raised since a child, who had a string of movies where he played a man who openly groomed young women.
    Dylan has never strayed from her allegations and the fact you think she was “coached” over the very obvious fact that he is a creepy old paedo says more about you.

    I haven't seen the documentary, but I hear it's very one sided. And isn't it from the makers of that college campus documentary a few years back that had credibility problems as well? I think people involved were editing wikipedia to support their claims. And I hear with this they basically make no effort to show why the claims against him may not be true. So if the TV is the court of public opinion, it's only the prosecution side we're being show. Whereas if they'd shown why the claims may not be true people would be in a better position to condemn him in their own minds or not.

    However, I have never been able to watch Woody Allen films without thinking of his relationship with his ex partners adopted daughter. It's not necessarily technically illegal, but it just screams all kinds of wrong. His films are fantastic. But it's always in my mind that he married his ex partner's adopted daughter.

    is it not the case that some of the details that dylan remembers could never have happened? Something about a train set in the attic that never existed. Mia always struck me as very bitter.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,317 ✭✭✭✭One eyed Jack


    Is Woody Allen the one that got away, the slippery Eel who wiggled free from the MEtoo net.??


    He is, among a few others who are considered too valuable to the industry.

    Did anyone watch Allen v Farrow on sky documentaries ?
    Pretty damming stuff.


    I started watching it, got about 20 minutes in before I decided it was rehashing the same old shìte that had been played out in the media as Allen v. Farrow 20 years ago. Celebrities occupy a different stratosphere to ordinary people in society, they’re akin to Royalty, which is one of the reasons why Prince Andrew has never had to break a sweat either.

    i finished it the other night, and to honest with you i don't know what to make of it...i just don't know who to believe? at the end of the day it one person's word against another - a child and a adult man

    there's definitely something off about the whole family, it wasn't your conventional family household, looking at the camcorder footage it seemed a very much a bohemian/hippy upbringing

    it all boils down to what happened that day in the attic room? was Allen just resting his head on Dylan's lap showing affection or was there something more sinister in it?

    btw - One thing i'd like to know did Allen start his relationship with Soon Yi before or after the assault allegations surfaced??

    Before. It's when she found out that a scorned Mia fabricated the story to try and ruin his life, per the result of two state investigations that lasted months.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,714 ✭✭✭✭Earthhorse


    I remember when the allegations around Allen resurfaced a few years back. At the time I took to reading every article about it as they appeared and any time I read one that said he was guilty I would come away believing he was. The reverse was also true. I basically came to the conclusion that it's impossible to know what happened. It strikes me as worrying how certain people can be that it did or didn't happen and how they have to ignore a lot of countervailing evidence to be so sure.

    To balance the OP here is an article from The Guardian criticising the documentary.

    https://www.theguardian.com/film/2021/mar/03/allen-v-farrow-woody-allen-mia-farrow-documentary-is-pure-pr-why-else-would-it-omit-so-much

    It's fine to believe one way or the other but don't just conveniently ignore facts that suit that belief.

    c'mon now we don't know that, the investigations were inconclusive...mainly because the chief prosecutor didn't want to traumatise Dylan anymore by putting her on the stand

    Both investigations concluded that Dylan was not abused by Allen and the charges were dismissed. This is public record.

    I appreciate you're on the fence, but this is a very big misconception Allen haters love to pound home.

    The New York/Yale investigation reported that they found nothing. This leads to the prosecutor, Frank Maco, issuing a statement saying that he feels there is “probable cause” to charge Woody, but won't do it for the sake of Dylan's mental health.

    For a prosecutor to say they have probably cause and not prosecute when it comes to molestation is pretty much unheard of, it's a face saving measure.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,067 ✭✭✭✭fryup


    but not when it comes to a child's mental well being, which is perfectly understandable...what age was she then seven?

    It's especially unheard of when it comes to child abuse. Peers have said that on child molestation that if there is 'probable cause' it's an obligation to go through with it for prosecutors.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,113 ✭✭✭the whole year inn


    The relationship with Mia daughter is strange, he was a father figure to allot of the kids , even if he said he wasn't. He was on holiday with then , over at the house , eats breakfast with them.
    And then he goes off with one of Mia daughters.
    He's 85 now , nothing will happen , lets just hope the daughter comes out with the true story after he dies, weither it be good or bad.
    I don't have kids but if I did I wouldn't let him near any of them.


  • Registered Users Posts: 92 ✭✭Hamlet.


    Alos worth noting that the statute of limitations to prosecute this crime in criminal court was 10 years. So to say there is probable cause and not follow up when Dylan was 17 is damning.

    I don't know if it is. Would a prosecutor really choose not to prosecute a man they believe to be guilty of this when he is the guardian of other kids? Maybe they'll just get him next time if that child isn't too traumatised?

    I don't know what if anything happened. But I do think that sounds a bit unrealistic. Whereas the kid not being a reliable witness as has been alleged sounds a bit more plausible.

    So the prosecutor said there was probable cause, but you took that to mean he was innocent?

    If Dylan truly believes she was molested she could also still take Woody Allen to a civil court and take him for everything he has. Wonder why she hasn't done that?

    That is Allens PR talk. In court he was called the weirdo, she was was called the doting mother who only cared for all her kids, she won custody.


    Allen as a defense used the '' She's alienating the child against me'' this was his defense. It took off as a defense in abuse cases after his trial according to documentary, and resulted in a lot of abusers getting custody of kids they were abusing. Who 85% of them afterward the fact, reported more ongoing abuse.
    In a way his PR machine, which at the time inundated everything news outlet with 1000's of emails with the line '' Scorned Woman using Child to get revenge'' and it worked at the time, as that was what everyone ran with.

    You don't not prosecute when you have probable cause for child molestation. The two state investigations said they had nothing.

    If Dylan believes she has a case then she can still take Woody to a civil court. The fact that she won't suggests she knows she has nothing.

    Well, if you know the law and the case, you'll know the person stating 'probable cause' was a State Attorney for Connecticut, not a judge at an evidentiary hearing. Prosecutors are legal maximalists, and particularly so in the US. Their word is not law, this didn't go before a probable cause hearing in front of a judge.

    A State Attorney would say they had probable cause for you kidnapping Shergar and turning him into pet food if they could.

    I'm not even defending Allen, just be accurate.

    I also have went from he is guilty as hell to thinking that he is been framed by a vengeful nut.

    One thing that struck me in the first episode was the scene when she got them all to line up and question them if they had eaten their dinner before they could gey some treat.To me the children seemed very scared of Mia.
    Its just an opinion that i got so early in the first of four long parts but it stuck with me and then reading about how abusive and controlling Mia was to them as alleged by one of the children makes me doubtful about things.

    Mias childhood was glossed over,no mention of her brother doing ten years for sexually abusing children,another brother committing suicide not long after been to her house,and the truth of her marraige to Andre Previn and this is just the stuff we know.

    On the other hand she would have to go down in history as a supreme arch manipulator to get so many people on board and tell lies about something they said they saw.

    Funny enough Allens biggest saviour in this has been Mia Farrow and lt looks like he can ride this out because no one believes Mia,

    In addition, Si Yoo was never WA's daughter in law. It's another narrative pushed that's fake. She never lived with him, barely spoke until she was of age and a very important detail is this, the fact that they are still together to this day speaks volumes.

    Jesus Christ the absolute state of this post (and the subsequent ones). The only reasonable explanation is that you didn’t watch the documentary I’d be worried if you did and still had this view. You’re ignoring details in the documentary.

    Firstly, they clearly stated in the doc that Allen, Soon-Yi and Moses all declined invitations to be a part of the documentary? How can you criticise the makers for not including them when they clearly tried to. What were they supposed to do? Not make it? Also re Moses do you not remember when Ronan said he was offered incentives like his college fees being covered by Allen to come out in support of him? This is clearly what happened to Moses. They showed a letter he had written in his late-20’s to Mia where he said how much he loved her, etc. What changed? Also ALL of the other children have since said his claims of abuse by Mia are BS.

    Re the investigations, the New York one seemed like a cover up. The case worker that was dealing with the investigation and had raised concerns was subsequently fired without any reason. In Connecticut it was shown they had probable cause. So it’s not true to say that they “concluded that Dylan was not abused by Allen”. You make it sound as if it’s a matter of fact. Do you not understand what probable cause means? They decide not to prosecute to protect Dylan due to her age. This was going to be a celebrity trial. Think OJ, etc. Imagine subjecting a child to that? You also go on to reference the Yale report. They destroyed all their notes which was said to be unheard of. Also it was shown that one of the case workers actually believe Dylan which contradicted their findings but of course the notes were conveniently destroyed.

    I’m not sure if it was you or another poster but I saw someone mention the train set that Moses said wasn’t there. The documentary referred to police notes which noted the presence of a train set when they inspected their room as part of their investigation.

    I see plenty of rubbish posted on here and don’t usually bother replying but this was so bad I couldn’t help myself. You’re making points that the documentary refuted with FACTS (claims from Moses, train set, etc) and are just ignoring the fact the documentary refuted them. It’s bizarre.
