Woody Allen's daughter...details how he sexually abused her in open letter [Hollywood Perversion]
NY DAILY NEWS ^ | 2/2/14 | Rich Schapiro

Woody Allen’s adopted daughter, in a wrenching letter, describes in stomach-churning detail how the iconic film director sexually abused her.

“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,” wrote Dylan Farrow, who is now 28.

“He told me to lay on my stomach and play with my brother’s electric train set. Then he sexually assaulted me.”

“He talked to me while he did it, whispering that I was a good girl, that this was our secret, promising that we’d go to Paris and I’d be a star in his movies,” Farrow wrote.

“I remember staring at that toy train, focusing on it as it traveled in its circle around the attic. To this day, I find it difficult to look at toy trains.”

Woody will get a pass. He is Hollywood.

Dylan will be called a liar. She will not be believed.

Woody had sex with his adopted daughter, and later married her, didn't he?

The elites applaud.

Dylan Farrow called out several Hollywood stars who have appeared in Allen’s films.

“What if it had been your child, Cate Blanchett? Louis CK? Alec Baldwin?” she wrote.

“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?

“Woody Allen is a living testament to the way our society fails the survivors of sexual assault and abuse. So imagine your seven-year-old daughter being led into an attic by Woody Allen. Imagine she spends a lifetime stricken with nausea at the mention of his name. Imagine a world that celebrates her tormenter.

Are you imagining that? Now, what’s your favorite Woody Allen movie?”

This is such a sad heart-breaking and compelling thing to read. And yet, there's another side to the story, also compelling - a compilation that raises serious questions about the allegations against Woody Allen and the typical internet shark-feeding frenzy on him.

http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2014/01/27/the-woody-allen-allegations-not-so-fast.html

I have no idea what happened, but I pray for both Woody and Dylan.

The guy is a scumbag. I never understood why anyone liked his films (besides his being a child molester which many suspected if not knew for years).

I’m not judging this one way or the other as I do not have the facts.

Is it possible Woody did this? Yes

Is is possible a bad therapist created a false memory by utilizing bad techniques to recall the past memory? Yes

There are so many bad therapists out there who are programming false recovered memories that I don’t trust stories like this until all the facts are available.

Just like Roman Polanski Woody will get a pass. In their hearts they prolly know he’s a perv but the stars will still want to be in his movies.

A kid who just began working at my local grocery store is the spitting image of a 20-year old Woody Allen.

I have not felt so sorry for anyone in a very, very long time.

Wow. The officials investigating the case couldn’t determine that. You must’ve been there, huh? Or maybe something is true after reaching a certain amount of internet allegation.

I too think they are all nuts. Mia Farrow said not too long ago that she kept seeing Sinatra even after marrying Allen, and that one of the kids might be Sinatra’s. I guess on the Hollywood continuum of sexual behavior this is considered pretty normal but most other folks would have kept quiet about something like this.

I have not read Dylan’s open letter, but the though occurs to me that she is taking self-mutilation to the next step.

Mostly young people in recent years, who have wanted to ‘stand out’, used a variety of piercings and tattooing to ‘be different’.

Eventually that became so commonplace that changing gender surgically was inviting for some.

Now this revelation.

Who will top this? And how?

Don’t forget Morgan Freeman is married to his step granddaughter who he raised. He tells a heartwarming story how it started when he was drunk one night and gee it happened just after she became legal. But hey, he’s got a great voice.

Isn’t it just a little weird that Mia Farrow is still friends with Roman Polanski?

No one ever mentions that long before all this became public Woody made the movie Manhattan in which a middle age Woody has an affair with barely legal Margaux Hemingway. Good movie widely acclaimed but Woody has issues.

I don’t know if what Dylan is saying is true, but I consider him a scumbag for having sex with his adopted daughter. That is sick, sick, sick and disgusting.

None of his movies have ever captured my attention. They really suck.

His step daughter will never feel safe again in world who can celebrate the accomplishments of a pedophile and neither should anyone else.
