Well it’s finished

I dunno if I enjoyed it or not tbh

According to Justice Wilk, Farrow became “concerned with Mr. Allen’s behavior towards Dylan” around 1987-1988. “During a trip to Paris, when Dylan was between two and three years old, Ms. Farrow told Mr. Allen that ‘[y]ou look at her [Dylan] in a sexual way,’” according to the decision. “You fondled her. It’s not natural. You’re all over her. You don’t give her any breathing room. You look at her when she’s naked.” She was suspicious of Allen because he’d read to Dylan in bed while in his underwear and permitted “[Dylan] to suck on his thumb.” Mia Farrow, her longtime friend Casey Pascal, Sophie Raven (Dylan’s French tutor), and Dr. Susan Coates, a clinical psychologist who treated Satchel, all testified that Allen “focused on Dylan to the exclusion of her siblings.” In the fall of 1990, when Farrow asked Dr. Coates to evaluate Dylan to see if she needed therapy, Farrow “expressed her concern” that “Allen’s behavior with Dylan was not appropriate.” Dr. Coates observed, “I did not see it as sexual, but I saw it as inappropriately intense because it excluded everybody else.”

I'll take that over saying Woody Allen is innocent of the allegations made against him.

The notion of a man acting as a father to the child of his spouse who later marries said child is anything but perverse is laughable. Coupling that with the allegations repeatedly made by his adult daughter is even more disturbing.

I'm not saying he is innocent, which you'd know if you'd have bothered reading any of my posts 🙂

I mean I addressed all of the points in the second part of your post so well done for making it clear that you didn't actually read any of my posts

I mean tbh all you need to do is watch Annie Hall to see how Allen views women, or at least definitely viewed them before his marriage to Soon-Yi in 1997: he basically just found beautiful young women to play parts in his own films where they fall in love with him, despite him being arrogant and unattractive.

I CLEARLY addressed your accusation of my "Oversimplifying" your posts with the one I made.

It was better than "Well done" by the way!

I ANNIHILATED YOU!!!

i haven't seen anything to lend real doubt to dylan's accusation.

Hmm, this is interesting:

Ronan has turned back to Dylan's side now, after previously discussing how Mia Farrow was an abusive and manipulative mother.

That's definitely modern evidence against Allen imo.

Yeah, all of that thumb sucking stuff is ****ing weird, can't really get around that.

Still a ****ing quagmire tho.

even if you believe the "brainwashing" part of woody's lawyer's defense, dylan is a 32 year old woman now with the same accusation. you can't invalidate her accusation on the grounds that her brother thinks their mother is a crazy abusive b*tch

There is a very interesting point someone made whom I wish I could give credit to.

Why isn't the abuse of boys/young men being promoted as a part of the #MeToo Movement?

not to kick the strawman, but why else would mia's parenting be brought up as relevant

I hate saying the same shit over and over, so I'll just say this again: if you read my previous posts, I specifically covered the fact that I am unwilling to directly contradict or deny a survivor's abuse account.
