By the Way, Woody Allen Is Innocent
share
A daughter staunchly maintainling accusations of her own father molesting her is very compelling. Not to mention Allen's own creepy, step daughter marrying behavior which make it all the more plausible
shareSure Dylan "staunchly" maintains her allegations. However, TWO count 'em TWO state agencies cleared Woody. Two of them. They did find significant evidence of coaching on Mia's behalf. As for his relationship with Soon-Yi, she was never his stepdaughter nor any kind of daughter. He and Farrow never lived together, and when the affair began Soon-Yi was 21 and old enough to consent. Why not actually watch the documentary and see where you are grossly wrong about your assumptions. Afraid you might have to change your view?
shareThreadkiller is of the cult that knows not what 'change your mind to fit the facts' means.
shareMoses staunchly maintaining brainwashing is pretty compelling, too.
shareThanks for posting that. It never ceases to amaze me the number of not very bright individuals who have done no research on this case suddenly become experts when regurgitating the untruths and lies that have sprung up about it over the years. I STAND WITH WOODY.
shareI stand with Woody as well. Always did and am proud of it. And your welcome for the posting. The gentleman who put it together needs to be given some kind of an award for that comprehensive amount of work he put into it.Hell I'd shake his hand if I could.
shareWoody's biggest mistake was to get involved with a flake.
Mia Farrow married Frank Sinatra when she was barely out of her teens. She then got her claws in a married man, Andre Previn. She is hardly one to play the saint card.
Woody is probably no saint either, but he didn't deserve to have his reputation dragged through the mud by this bitter woman. Mia was willing to carry on an affair with Woody for years probably because he kept hiring her to star in his movies. If she really wanted a "father" for her stable of adopted kids, she would've married one.
I will always love Woody Allen's films!!
Listen, I personally strongly doubt that Woody Allen is guilty of all the allegations (sorry but simply can't dismiss all the accusations completely). I feel like even if there is some truth to all this, it was probably blown out of proportion. There seems to be some financial reasons involved.
Anyway, "not very bright individuals who have done no research"? This is just the other extreme and is just as bad as claiming he is guilty without doubt. Just because someone believes the allegations doesn't automatically mean that they are "not bright".
Finally, no matter which research someone could conduct, there are still unknown grey zones to all this (and the authorities more than likely have extra information that is kept secret). So we can't know for sure, so people totally dismissing each others because they don't share the same opinion doesn't anything except stopping open-minded discussion in which people take and leave information.
All? What all? Mia accused him of molesting Dylan. That's one.
shareIt's common for family members having split loyalties in cases of child sexual abuse and incest when brought to light. Just look at the Phillips family. That doesn't make the idea of life long false implanted memories in multiple children (Now well adjusted adults) by a scorned mother any more plausible.
shareMemory manipulation is plausible in circumstances like these, and in this case I would say likely.
shareRonan Farrow also reported witnessing inappropriate behavior by Woody Allen towards Dylan when he was a child. A scorned mother successfully implanting life long lasting false memories to the degree which you would have to believe took place in the Woody Allen daughter molestation case is basically unheard of, never mind rare.
shareI just watched this. It's a pretty thorough documentation of the timeline, familial relationships, history, and "plot lines" of this tangled case.
Unfortunately, I think it might be preaching to the choir, though, especially when the video makes a few quips or sarcastic jokes. I don't think it will win any new converts to Woody's case. Maybe a few, one can only hope.
Police detectives and child psychologists thoroughly investigated the case and came to the conclusion that the kid was lying and Farrow had coached her to do so. Woody is innocent.
PS: Soon-Yi was not his daughter, or his adopted daughter, or his step-daughter, or a minor.
It sucks that people don't do any fact-checking before arriving at a conclusion they will then defend to the death. Most Woody-haters don't even know the evidence. If somebody reviewed it and concluded he was guilty, that's one thing, but these jokers don't even know it.
shareDylan ought to get an Oscar for that crying performance and, oh, I can't look at a train without being traumatized. In Woody's autobiography he covers quite of bit of these accusations, and the flat out lies such as how Mia said Soon-Yi was retarded and her mother was a prostitute. When you take a close look at what has come from Mia there's more lies and distortions than fact.
