@@luismarioguerrerosanchez4747 seriously? (My fave Allen movie is Midnight in Paris, where he doesn't appear, but Owen kinda plays him) I really like him as a character, he's so anxious and awkward, its amazing
I know it's not supposed to be funny but when, having been asked about Soon-Yi and age issues, he replies "She's away at school" that is a punchline worthy of any of his standup routines.
@@amazingabby25 actually in the context of a highly acrimonious break up I’m not sure if that remark is especially telling. It’s a threat, sure but of course he himself had just been threatened.
It's funny that he could be so blind to the humor in that interaction. It seems spot-on for his type of writing to have dialogue that would point out how problematic the situation is. It's like he is so in denial about how creepy his whole situation is.
Marrying your ex-wife's adoptive daughter doesn't make him a child molester, but it surely makes it very hard to believe a man who was having a sexual relationship with his wife's adoptive daughter "which later became a serious relationship" in his words.
lol. the people who ask what is wrong with that? So you have the same issues if you can't see how it's not right. He knew this child since she was 10 years old. He knew it wasn't legal to flirt her then but as soon as she turned 21? Its clear he has a creepy vibe and emotional immaturity there. typical predatory behavior
@@lalluna9460 U clearly didn't do any research on this at all. Him and Soon-yi didn't talk or interact at all till she was twenty. And can you believe who suggested the two to meet? That's right, Mia Farrow, the woman accusing him right now with her daughter. And if u ask me how I know this, it's from Moses farrow's blog, who is the son of, again, Mia farrow. And I'm again going to believe him since he has no reason to lie and nothing to gain from this at all, but Mia and dylan farrow do. You probably think the attic Dylan farrow was talking about was real, didn't you?
1 fact is undeniable. He raised a 13 year old child and then married her once she was legal. That should tell you everything you need to know. This guy is sick.
@@CoolAce1She was of legal age when she went public with the incest. Hardly an adult as you've stated. The man married his daughter when she became of legal age. Gross is an understatement.
If you know the type, how come you're not out in the streets helping the Police to arrest future child molestors? You should be using your molestation-given superpowers; you know, with great power comes great responsibility
At this point, there would be so MANY allegations if he was a serial predator. He’s been married to Soon Yi for 20+ years. Why can’t we respect a grown woman enough to believe her and trust her to make her own decisions? She’s 49 now.
@jfktruthseeker420 Except she's not his daughter in any meaning of the word and if she was, they wouldn't be allowed to marry because incestuous marriage is illegal in all fifty states. But I understand. Your racism and antisemitism blind you from simple facts.

@__ he actually refused to submit to a polygraph test. Not only that but he also denied ever being in the room where the assault took place. Yet when analysts screened the room his hair was found. And then he switched his story. On top of that the child psychologist who pronounced that Dylan had not been through trauma never even spoke to her before they declared that statement. There are eye witnesses and scientific proof that he did this unspeakable thing. Yet people will fight to prove his innocence so they can watch a movie.
@@mishasharp7757 I see your point. I think he is guilty of some sort of abuse its just that Dylan was so young they didn't want her to take the stands and without that prosecution would not be strong enough according to the Vanity article I read plus something about forensic evidence in the attic.... Stuff doesn't add up
I think in a movie you could envision a circumstance where a rich, famous husband and an adopted daughter fell in love. However, in real life if they were introduced and had a father daughter relationship before she was 18 there’s no excuse for the husband to pursue that as a romantic relationship. It’s just a bridge too far even for a liberal, open minded person. So if Woody’s fatherly role existed while she was 13 etc then this is wrong. Granted Mia fabricating child molestation if that is the case is also wrong. He just seems almost amoral in his countenance regarding this. Surely there should be some guilt at causing this pain.
Thank you. He’s so busy denying Dylan’s abuse allegations, rightfully so and who knows what to believe in that mess. But him for 30 years now he’s been parading Soon Yi around in our faces like “as long as Im not guilty of assaulting my younger daughter then this is aight.” Idk if I was being falsely accused of pedophilia, I would prolly align myself to an image that would make pedophilia the last thing you thought about when you saw, heard or thought of me. That’s all the info I need. I’m not saying he did the other action or that Mia Farrow isn’t crazy or that he deserves to be called a pedophile who should be in prison forever or that he doesn’t have the right to defense himself. Just sayin a lot of people enabled him to make an insane amount of money while accumulating a lot of power that is still prevalent today whenever he’s praised for being some kind of genius when the content of his character doesn’t reflect how highly people speak of him.
@@peterclifford8305 I know right ... I mean Woody's not capable of lying to save his reputation and career ! He has no sociopathic tendencies whatsoever ! ...smh
Simply put, he was investigated twice and totally exonerated. It's the millennials who are trying to re-litigate this thru social media, without looking logically at the facts and using emotion, not reason to reach their conclusions.
No. Its just that during these times such behavior was considered hish-hush, women were seen as “crazy” AND Hollywood was able to get away with so much back then. Thats why its taken so long to finally have Cosby and Weinstein in jail-cause at one time the culture was about protecting or always believing those in power. There were children molested by family members for years and shamed and silenced or THEY had to be “sent away” and never heard of again instead of acting being taken on the one doing the attacking. You should be applauding the younger generation trying to change and call out these destructive behaviors

It seems to be a part of a trend where you dig up old videos,footages or articles to vilify someone in the present. Kevin Hart was barred from hosting the Oscars in 2019,coz of a 2011 video ffs.
Except this controversy didnt break out in this decade, its been Woodys scandal for years. He put this on himself by marrying his almost stepchild. Not only that but homophobic slurs dont compare to harming a child. So far no one has been able to show evidence that hes innocent however fking a young girl u knew when she was younger and began to really talk to when she was 15 strongly suggests he enjoys minors
Saba No grooming: Allen never was apart of Mia’s house : He wasn’t around: He was alaways making movies. That is Woody’s real sin: not much time w any of the children
Exactly what is the standard behaviour when you find out a man you have been having a relationship with takes naked photos of your child? Did he really expect calm acceptance? He's fortunate she didn't cut his heart out with a spoon. I think that is standard behaviour. A rapist never thinks he raped anyone. A pedofile never thinks he did anything wrong to a child. To them, its normal. All these years later, it's still wrong. You are wrong Mr. Allen.
He never acts like a normal human would by saying, "I love my daughter and would never harm her. I didn't touch her inappropriately." Instead he says "Isn't it illogical that I'd do that" and tells a rambling story
@@diane5140 I'm one of those who thinks it's complicated, it's legal and, basically, it's none of anyone's business. Hence, I try to avoid being a judgemental, gossiping, sad case.
He never should have started up with Soon Yi, it was pervy, creepy, inappropriate and obviously very hurtful and upsetting to Mia. It's what started all the severe dysfunction and bad blood between the two which has effected all of the children.
Mia did the same thing to Andre Previn’s wife, Dory Previn. She was having an affair, at 23, with the married Andre Previn who was almost twice her age and she got pregnant. The pregnancy destroyed the marriage and ended in divorce. She’s merely getting a taste of her own medicine.
@@bhoney1988 - 23 and 21 are not that far apart. Furthermore, who do you think you are to deny a grown woman her own agency? Sun-Yi has a mind of her own. I love how all the Litter-Box-Lunatics come pouring out of the Filthy-Cat-Colonies to tell a grown woman she has no right to choose her own mate then, tell parents they no right to stop their 15 year old daughter from murdering her own child.
Also, per the custody hearing court documents: Until 1990, although he had had little contact with any of the Previn children, Mr. Allen had the least to do with Soon-Yi. “She was someone who didn’t like me. I had no interest in her, none whatsoever. She was a quiet person who did her work. I never spoke to her.”
@@ucheoji Per the findings of fact from the custody hearing: In 1990, Mr. Allen, who had four season tickets to the New York Knicks basketball games, was asked by Soon-Yi if she could go to a game. Mr. Allen agreed. So the earliest they started spending time together was 1990. Soon-Yi was born in 1970 - so she was 20.
Charges were never brought against him because there was no evidence to support the accusations against him. That's all you need to know, end of story.
Hey, why should I believe all the judges, lawyers, investigators, psychologists and eye witness accounts like Moses and the nannies...I saw everything I need to know on twitter.
'If I wanted to be a child molester.....?' Who the F says that like its nothing. I'd be furious and probably throw up if I had to defend myself in something so heinous...if I didn't do it? He seems like he's reading a movie script
He made a couple of excellent points; of course, being logical, rational, relevant, and compelling observations they will go right over many idiot's heads as we see here.
He did not say NO when asked if he’d molested his daughter. And, not moments before saying they’re all “hostile toward me”, said he did his usual thing where he played with the kids and read them stories and had a wonderful time! Also this creep assigns himself young - ridiculously young costars and has for years! I wish Kroft had asked about that!! No one ever asks about that! And has the bleccckkk to hook up with his partner’s young daughter but he’s no child molester!? Notice his discomfort when Kroft mentions the nude pictures of he daughter which is how he was caught. He’s sick.
@@Psyclonus7 The fan fiction is the continued denial even though Dylan is grown now and has NOT changed her story. I believe Dylan and not the groomer who married his life partner's daughter.
I used to think Mia Farrow was this Angel, I was fooled for so long, like so many people were. That is until I learned of how she devastated Dory Previn, Andre Previn’s longtime wife. Farrow went after Previn with cold calculation, pretended to be Dory Previn’s best friend, brought Dory and Andre Previn gifts, came to their home for dinner, commented on how pretty their BED was, & eventually cheated with Previn, a married man. In short order, Farrow got Previn to leave his wife for her. Dory Previn was devastated and was absolutely dumped by both Previn and Farrow. She wound up having a nervous breakdown from the heartache and ended up in a mental hospital. When years later, Allen was then accused of being a pervert, Dory Previn called Allen to warn him about Farrow. She told him to be careful, that Farrow was cruel, vindictive and callous. Farrow was the typical woman scorned. She wasn’t used to being cheated on. She was used to being the cheater, and being dumped for her much younger adopted daughter put her in a rage. Of course it was not the best choice to have an affair with Farrow’s much younger adopted daughter, but that brings up another issue, and that was how Farrow treated her Asian adopted children like servants, and even physically abused them, but treated her son Ronan, who many believe is Frank Sinatra’s son, like he was a precious prince. I have no sympathy for Farrow. She played the Other Woman role and devastated Dory Previn’s life, and then she got a taste of her own medicine many years later. Sounds fair to me.
Look at the 2 children he and his step daughter adopted and google some pictures of them out together. A little Asian girl he always literally clutches on to and a blonde girl, or Dylan replacement who often looks very sullen and unhappy ... connect the dots people. It’s grossly obvious he is a sick man.

@@kawishabbasi9459 What kind of utterly stupid reply is that!? It can't happen to me because I would NEVER make engage in a sexual relationship with my wife's child, period.

Perhaps in your culture or personal life this kind of union is possible, I can state emphatically that it wouldn't happen in mine.
@@timages Except he wasn't his stepchild. He never married Mia Farrow, so he was never her stepdad. Plus, he lived in a different apartment, so he didn't even see her that often until she was an adult.
When my young cousin was 5-7 years old, we used to have someone make noise outside on Christmas Eve, and then run out with the cousin for a glimpse of seeing Santa flying away from the rooftop. Nobody was actually there, but we all acted like we'd seen it; my cousin eventually started "remembering" that he had seen Santa too. My cousin is now in his thirties, and to this day he still has his implanted memories of having seen Santa on the roof.
I have a similar experience where as children we started to have imaginary memories of things that could not possibly have happened, and then we couldn't even tell whether it really happened or not.
Lol, yes, same here. I also went to a brownie guide camp and came home and told my mother I'd seen bulls being milked. When she told me they must have been cows I cried and cried because she wouldn't believe me.
Memories of constant sexual abuse in childhood are traumatic. Memories of Santa are remembered fondly, because children want to believe he is real. No child wants to believe their father is sexually aroused by them, let alone abusing them. You’re blaming what was a CHILD at the time. There’s scientific research that points to why survivors of abuse come out later in their life. Please dedicate the time to educating yourself
I hope people who watch the HBO “story” watch this. As someone said, all you have to do to know everything about this case is read Moses Farrow’s letter. He was an eye-witness to everything and 14 years old when it all happened. The history of Mia’s own family (father and brother) and life with Sinatra and Previn sets her up for all sorts of twisted psychosis when it comes to personal relationships and raising children.
If you watched the HBO "story" you would know that Moses was not there and even admitted he did not know her whereabouts for that frame of time. It wasnt until years later where he switched up his story. All other siblings discredited his made up stories of abuse from Mia. But blame it on the woman right? Her family history and relationships..? What about the reoccurring trend of Allen's films glamorizing underage affairs with old men? The world wants to disregard that though and point the finger at the "psychotic woman" because its easier to play that game.
@@julietj192 The HBO story was full of made of nonsense and lacked any real credibility, but people don't care about the truth. They prefer the sordid, fictional story. No molestation ever occurred.
While claiming the sex abuse allegations are a story, you spin another story. You claim Mia is a psycho because of her family relations. Enjoy your re-runs of Blue Jasmine and Manhattan.
its just a card. yes, she was hurt, who could blame her, but i still think it was wrong of her to drag 3 small children into what should have been a matter for adults. she dragged them into the fracus in an ugly way and took a father from them and there is zero justification for that, unless he is a child molester, and he was not so does all the evidence suggest. clearly he is not a child molester unless you are stupid.
Of course Allen is speaking the truth. His son Moses, 14 at the time of Mia's allegations, and in the house at the time, confirms every word. I suspect that although Mia can look quite angelic, she is what one calls "a piece of work". A pity that Ronan and Dylan have bought her allegations lock stock and barrel. By the way: Ronan was four years old at the time. So how is he so convinced his sis knows what really happened?
Ronan says he witnessed him putting his thumb in her mouth to suck & would get in bed with dylans in the middle of the night in just underwear. People remember things when they were 4. Esp something strange.
You should be ashamed. He married his adopted daughter who raised from the age of six. Explain that! He’s been accused of physically abusing the kids, so it’s also likely his son is scared to speak out against his father. Pretty much every director and producer in Hollywood is a child predator. Wake up.
@@nikkibdoingthings You should wake up. Your last line shows how you think. 'Just because some other directors are bad, he is bad too because he is a director." Have you yet read the blog by Moses Farrow? Read it first in internet.
@@natalieps2387 I remember things when I was two and three. The house we lived in. Our German Shepard dog named Topper. My mother making popcorn in the fireplace. The toy I lost and the last place I put it before it was gone. (Next to the fence in the front yard) Sneaking into the back seat of our car so I could go to work with my dad and him having to drive me back home. The feeling of fear and being uncomfortable hearing my parents argue. Yes we can remember LOTS of things as a very young child.
To his distractors I would not use the word "hysteric", I would say psychotic. He was totally cleared by the courts. This was the only allegation ever made against him. It makes no sense that he was accused and never anything else but this came up. He took a polygraph test at the time and Mia Farrow refused. The reason I use that word psychotic is because you can use the logic of Socrates with them and it still makes no difference. The fact of the matter is, they're is castigating a man who is totally innocent.
@@burndykong52 Then where are the other victims and why haven't they spoken out? In the last three years, the only accusations have come from Dylan Farrow, who got a book deal out of it.
Its really hard to know, because Allen is high IQ and very convincing. He's also been a gifted writer for 40+ years - making up stories, taking bits of reality and blending them with fiction to create convincing, captivating stories. At 2:10 he's asked about the allegations, and doesn't say no, but sets a scene and asks hypothetically why he would do it then and there?
I looked up everything I could find about the accusations ( I would suggest people who want to accuse of him of having done it do the same ) and I've come to the conclusion he did not do it.
Dylan maintains he did. I don't know what happened. It does seem odd that he would pick that one single moment during a visitation and that no one noticed until that penultimate moment only after she found out about Soon Yi and started to go crazy. But she maintains that he did. I'd like to believe him but that means nothing. I'm forced to withhold judgement until better evidence comes along.
Kevin Healey Yes he did...I believed it then and I believe it now!!! U sound like a blind fool....this man is OBVIOUSLY lying thru his teeth! When he asked him outright if he did it, he didn’t say no..instead he started with “Why would I” if u know anything about Psychology or people, then you know that’s the language of person that’s about to tell a lie
@@PaulTheSkeptic Dylan maintains he did because Mia implanted this memory in her head. Naturally, it was a convenient age for her to have this allegedly done because she was so young that her memory could've easily been swayed. If you watch the tapes of her talking about it when it allegedly first occurred, she's smiling and completely detached from it.
It's interesting how when asked a simple question on whether or not he did this, that Allen launches into a whole defensive statement. A simple yes or no would surely be enough? He's made some classic movies, but this guy has always given me the creeps.
All liars do that, they make a big statement to a question that needs only a simple yes or no answer. To me, he abused his kids, and maybe others. To me, he is a pervert, the same ways his filmes are. Many of his films are what he is inside.
So if Allen had just responded by saying "No", everyone who didn't believe him up to that point, would have suddenly become convinced of his innocence? He knew (like most sane people would) even some of the stupidest individuals out there would not have chosen that exact moment to become a child molester, and yet weirdly his answer only serves to incriminate him further in the eyes of some. "But but... he didn't say no!" Bizarre.
It is unbelievable that you think you know someone through media. If you truly understand his films especially the great ones they have deeply moral and objective deep ethical schemes.
Allen never looks his interviewer in the eye as he lies. He is convincing until he “doth protest” too much. The manner in which he paints Mia as an unstable shrew and himself the victim is classic narcissists. Doesn’t acknowledge having done anything creepy with his other daughter because she was an “adult.” That he normalized. Very disturbing individual
Maybe you should read up on the facts. He did not 'marry his stepdaughter'. He married the adopted daughter of Mia Farrow and André Stevin. They started to date when she was 21. It was a relation between two consenting adults from the start. They are still married today, and have raised to adopted daughters, now adult. Nothing 'inappropriate' about that. On the contrary.
I'm getting attacked and that's fine. Read the daily article on the net. Moses said his mom tried to get him to say he was abused too. Look at all the facts. All of them. The nanny said he didn't do it and the cop said that the tape was rehearsed over the course of a few days. Mia was pissed and attacked
You are getting attacked because you're an idiot. All of Mia farrow's children except Moses support Dylan. Also the two babysitters say Dylan's behaviour changed around the time she was abused too. That and the fact we have Dylan saying she was abused!
@@marishanameyer6132 Soon-Yi also questions that the abuse happened. She and Moses admit that Mia was an abbusive mother. They are two of the oldests sons. I obviously believe the older sons more than the younger. Younger kids are easier to manipulate.
I mean, I really don't know what to think: Allen is always obsessed with falling in love with much younger women (Manhattan,...), but I don't think he refers to children. On the other hand, Mia is also a deranged character with a terrible relationship with her children... so I just don't know
Angel - Thorough police investigation yielded zero evidence. Predators have a pattern of behavior. One time molester doesn't ever happen. Yes, strange to marry Soon Yee - 25 years later they are still married . Allen is not as neurotic as you think. If he was - he would not be as productive as a writer and director as he has been.
I'd suggest that someone who's after pre-teen children wouldn't say 'ok, if not that I could have at least young women'. These are two different things. Many older men prefer young women. Some people may not like that but it doesn't make being a child molester more likely.
Depends, as the adoptee, bonding isn't guaranteed and you get to decide who your real family is, especially when there's 11 to 15 other children involved.
He submitted to a polygraph test is a lie, Connecticut police investigators asked him to sit a lie detector test, and he refused. Please get your details correct 60 minutes
@Loulou Bos he could’ve had millions of girls but he chose his ex’s adopted daughter ... if that’s not wrong to you you’re sick in the head buddy just like the rest of Hollywood
Woody Allen is beating around the bush so HARD! If he didn't do it....when asked....he should say...something like "no". Instead it's anything but no. "ohh umm thats crazy umm her mom is crazy umm my career umm"
Edna Red god is taking care of business? wow thats great. Hey god can I bang my ex wife's adopted daughter? "Yeah sure son tap that ass". Woody is happy if he doesn't have to pay for what he did and Dylan won't be happy until he does.
***** I can kind of see where you're coming from. For anyone to believe it is completely normal for a man to suddenly begin an affair, with a girl that he has known since she was a child (and should have viewed as a stepdaughter) is crazy. That shows you right there, that it's very likely that he did commit child molestation.
***** thanks for the heads up, if it comes to that I just won't respond anymore because I hate to talk to people who refuse to try to understand another person's logic and just stick to their own even it might not be 100% correct.
@WarmPotato His hair wasn't there. Police said they found a hair...never showed anyone the hair, never had said hair tested. Oh no! A hair in a crawlspace which could have been anybody's...burn him!!!
the offer for Mia to appear back in 92 to defend her side of the story went silent, until her son the rebellious 'Elmer Fudd hunting for rabbits' decided to further the salacious accusations once again in defense of his mommie is unf*cking believable. Mia is bitter and vengeful, Dylan has issues, but I doubt its her father.
I think it was actually a good way of defending the case, I mean he's right, molesting her at that point would be dumb (I'm not saying he didnt do it tho, idc, maybe he's a monster, but he's right)
Not saying he didn't do it, not defending him. But if Mia actually coached Dylan to lie and make this up, that's a pretty heavy burden to put on a 7 year old.
None of us are qualified to state confidently what the truth is, but what we do know is that he has never been found guilty in a court of law, and that it is important in a free society for the accused to be presumed innocent until proven guilty.
Note that when Steve Kroft asks him if there's any truth to the allegation-- Allen never answers the question! He never says "no". He answers the question with another question.
How would you react to a completely irrational question, that you molested your own kid, when you know its completely made up. A simple "no" is to take the question seriously. Obviously he does not.
Bob Birnbaum I hate this line of t hinking .... so what’s your point? That because he didn’t say no, that he is guilty? Look at the conversation as a whole and what he says. What a stupid thing to say
Allen reveals himself in the interview to be emotionally unintelligent and self-absorbed ("Reservations about what?"), but I don't think he molested a small child, and I don't think he's vindictive or cruel. I do believe Mia Farrow can be both of those things.
@Kevin Since He's making the point that he was accused only once, and in a moment where doing something like that made no sense. Anyone that thinks a pedophile molests someone once--only once---and never again, is ill-informed
he was asked a direct question whether he took his daughter to the attic and molested her, and he DID NOT deny it. this was his opportunity to vehemently deny it, but instead he gave some convoluted roundabout answer. Because it's in true.
I’m 58yo. Read a lot of books. Obsessed with psychology and the human condition. Call it gut instinct, call it a vibe. He didn’t do it. He’s selfish, self absorbed etc. The soon yi thing was wrong on many levels but not incest or molesting. Mia has an ego and she was furious, enraged...she had certainly paid him back.
Dylan Farrow, I deeply want to thank you for having cleared your father. I looked up everything I could find about the accusation and anyone can clearly see (if they look at the facts instead of the accusation) that the it was all fabricated from A to Z.
It's really strange to hear this sort of rational argument that appeals to the interviewer empaty in this sort of situation. It's does not seem normal to me to usa a hypotatical situation in with you would plan to "become a child rapist" in a sensitive and oersonal moment like this. And people may call this just bad phrasin or bad choice of words, but in a very much anticipated interview, wich somebody who os a writer and filmmaker, used to writing dialogs and such, it just seems like a flaw of character. A classical apathic perspective from a sociopath or something like that. It really sounds concerning
Did you all even listen to this? I've changed my mind after all these years. It seems Mia felt understandably humiliated, but hysterical. Soon yi was 21 so no, that's not child molestation. Look up Soon yi's side of the story. And look up the Nannys opinion of the two of them. Allen and Farrow did not even live together. They actually were not together. Not even physically, for years. I wish Allen had those phone calls on tape.
This case is very hard, you don’t want to dismiss someone’s allegations of SA specially after years have pass but in the other hand how to blame someone without enough proof of such an atrocious act 😢
My own grandfather attempted to downplay his actions - he was my life mentor, my present father & the voice in my head. As a survival, I now have to rethink my whole world. Amazing how someone who taught you right from wrong denies & continues to downplay their actions. It’s always who you kno. Predators find the quiet, vulnerable ones. It creates havoc on the innocent.

I think in a movie you could envision a circumstance where a rich, famous husband and an adopted daughter fell in love. However, in real life if they were introduced and had a father daughter relationship before she was 18 there’s no excuse for the husband to pursue that as a romantic relationship. It’s just a bridge too far even for a liberal, open minded person. So if Woody’s fatherly role existed while she was 13 etc then this is wrong. Granted Mia fabricating child molestation if that is the case is also wrong. He just seems almost amoral in his countenance regarding this. Surely there should be some guilt at causing this pain.

I used to think Mia Farrow was this Angel, I was fooled for so long, like so many people were. That is until I learned of how she devastated Dory Previn, Andre Previn’s longtime wife.
Farrow went after Previn with cold calculation, pretended to be Dory Previn’s best friend, brought Dory and Andre Previn gifts, came to their home for dinner, commented on how pretty their BED was, & eventually cheated with Previn, a married man. In short order, Farrow got Previn to leave his wife for her. Dory Previn was devastated and was absolutely dumped by both Previn and Farrow. She wound up having a nervous breakdown from the heartache and ended up in a mental hospital.
When years later, Allen was then accused of being a pervert, Dory Previn called Allen to warn him about Farrow. She told him to be careful, that Farrow was cruel, vindictive and callous.
Farrow was the typical woman scorned. She wasn’t used to being cheated on. She was used to being the cheater, and being dumped for her much younger adopted daughter put her in a rage.
Of course it was not the best choice to have an affair with Farrow’s much younger adopted daughter, but that brings up another issue, and that was how Farrow treated her Asian adopted children like servants, and even physically abused them, but treated her son Ronan, who many believe is Frank Sinatra’s son, like he was a precious prince.

I hope people who watch the HBO “story” watch this. As someone said, all you have to do to know everything about this case is read Moses Farrow’s letter. He was an eye-witness to everything and 14 years old when it all happened. The history of Mia’s own family (father and brother) and life with Sinatra and Previn sets her up for all sorts of twisted psychosis when it comes to personal relationships and raising children.
If you watched the HBO "story" you would know that Moses was not there and even admitted he did not know her whereabouts for that frame of time. It wasnt until years later where he switched up his story. All other siblings discredited his made up stories of abuse from Mia. But blame it on the woman right? Her family history and relationships..? What about the reoccurring trend of Allen's films glamorizing underage affairs with old men?

When he asked him outright if he did it, he didn’t say no..instead he started with “Why would I” if u know anything about Psychology or people, then you know that’s the language of person that’s about to tell a lie
@@PaulTheSkeptic Dylan maintains he did because Mia implanted this memory in her head. Naturally, it was a convenient age for her to have this allegedly done because she was so young that her memory could've easily been swayed. If you watch the tapes of her talking about it when it allegedly first occurred, she's smiling and completely detached from it.
This case is so crazy that making death threads is apparently no big deal.
You should always make death threats to a pedophile
@@Zac-oz9lj AMEN!
Well, they are still together. And have two kids together. That’s 32 years.
Still extremely strange. But good for them.
It's interesting how when asked a simple question on whether or not he did this, that Allen launches into a whole defensive statement. A simple yes or no would surely be enough? He's made some classic movies, but this guy has always given me the creeps.
All liars do that, they make a big statement to a question that needs only a simple yes or no answer. To me, he abused his kids, and maybe others. To me, he is a pervert, the same ways his filmes are. Many of his films are what he is inside.
So if Allen had just responded by saying "No", everyone who didn't believe him up to that point, would have suddenly become convinced of his innocence? He knew (like most sane people would) even some of the stupidest individuals out there would not have chosen that exact moment to become a child molester, and yet weirdly his answer only serves to incriminate him further in the eyes of some. "But but... he didn't say no!" Bizarre.
It is unbelievable that you think you know someone through media. If you truly understand his films especially the great ones they have deeply moral and objective deep ethical schemes.
he was never prosecuted. and farrow never came on 60 minutes
She wanted money in exchange to drop charges. Well, if abuse happened than she would ask for justice instead. What a witch.
I hope the Me Too Movement gets this guy.
I dont understand how people dont see mia farrow is a raving lunatic
it’s a known fact that children can be coached to witness the “right” things by asking the “right” questions
Such a strange story.
It’s obvious that Farrow was trying to get back at Allen if you listen to this interview.
I am convinced he is a pedophile!
He abused Dylan.
God what a mess :/ Either way, one of these parents is a complete failure.
Euro-African Both.
K Hungus YOURS IS THE MOST LOGICAL THOUGHT,ME BELIEVING WOODY DID NOT MOLEST HIS DAUGHTER!
That would be Mia, he’ll hath no fury!
Both are.
From the testimony at trial, he doesn't come across as a great parent & neither does she. But in my opinion, she is the worst parent.
Allen never looks his interviewer in the eye as he lies. He is convincing until he “doth protest” too much. The manner in which he paints Mia as an unstable shrew and himself the victim is classic narcissists. Doesn’t acknowledge having done anything creepy with his other daughter because she was an “adult.” That he normalized. Very disturbing individual
There have been a handful of people commenting on narcissistic abuse. It’s the hidden epidemic.
some people are just made like that, not everyone is self assured
He's still disgusting. Marrying your foster kid ? Vomiting !
She was never a foster kid. An adopted child is NOT a foster child.
Woody's behavior is so off the charts inappropriate:( what a creepy thing--marrying your stepdaughter.
Maybe you should read up on the facts. He did not 'marry his stepdaughter'. He married the adopted daughter of Mia Farrow and André Stevin. They started to date when she was 21. It was a relation between two consenting adults from the start. They are still married today, and have raised to adopted daughters, now adult.
Nothing 'inappropriate' about that. On the contrary.
@@mickthenick1 It's creepy and weird.
It’s creepy, but it’s not illegal.
@A S Oh yes she was! Pedophilic excuses are super creepy. They adopted her when she was a young child.
He did NOT marry his step daughter and he has NO step children.
I'm getting attacked and that's fine. Read the daily article on the net. Moses said his mom tried to get him to say he was abused too. Look at all the facts. All of them. The nanny said he didn't do it and the cop said that the tape was rehearsed over the course of a few days. Mia was pissed and attacked
You are getting attacked because you're an idiot. All of Mia farrow's children except Moses support Dylan. Also the two babysitters say Dylan's behaviour changed around the time she was abused too. That and the fact we have Dylan saying she was abused!
What a load of shit with all due respect. If even one child questions that abuse happened then it is all debatable
So what you are saying is you are giving more weight to one person that you are 8 others!
And the Judge said Allen's behaviour was "grossly inappropriate" toward Dylan.
@@marishanameyer6132 Soon-Yi also questions that the abuse happened. She and Moses admit that Mia was an abbusive mother. They are two of the oldests sons. I obviously believe the older sons more than the younger. Younger kids are easier to manipulate.
He never gets any older- What facecream does he use??!! 😂
I mean, I really don't know what to think: Allen is always obsessed with falling in love with much younger women (Manhattan,...), but I don't think he refers to children. On the other hand, Mia is also a deranged character with a terrible relationship with her children... so I just don't know
HBO documentary Allen vs. Farrow has the goods on him. Yeah. It's bad.
Allen probably targeted Mia precisely because she was deranged, thus easy to manipulate.
Angel - Thorough police investigation yielded zero evidence. Predators have a pattern of behavior. One time molester doesn't ever happen. Yes, strange to marry Soon Yee - 25 years later they are still married . Allen is not as neurotic as you think. If he was - he would not be as productive as a writer and director as he has been.
I'd suggest that someone who's after pre-teen children wouldn't say 'ok, if not that I could have at least young women'. These are two different things. Many older men prefer young women. Some people may not like that but it doesn't make being a child molester more likely.
Actually, Manhattan is about a man who leaves a younger woman for an older woman.
He has been married to Soon Yi since forever . They have children. She says she’s happy with him. All the rest is hearsay.
so disgusting. He actually had a relationship with his stepdaughter and nobody calls him for that 😪😪🤷🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
Wrong. She was NOT his step daughter, and he has NO step children.
It's not the accused's responsibility to prove a crime wasn't committed, the accuser has the burden of proof. at least that's how it should be.
metoo
Which is more than what can be said for any of COSBY’s accusers.
He married his stepdaughter. What more proof do you need?
An adopted child is still a sibling just saying. Depending on how you feel on either side. I feel bad for all.
Depends, as the adoptee, bonding isn't guaranteed and you get to decide who your real family is, especially when there's 11 to 15 other children involved.
He submitted to a polygraph test is a lie, Connecticut police investigators asked him to sit a lie detector test, and he refused. Please get your details correct 60 minutes
@@KPK75772 WHy are you defending him so much? Would you also have sex with your partner's young daughter?
@@diane5140There are a few on here weirdly on every comment defending him. I say yes they would.

@Loulou Bos His stepdaughter?
@Loulou Bos yes. Yes he did
@Loulou Bos you’re right, she had nothing to do with him besides the fact that she was the adopted daughter of an ex, but please calm down
@Loulou Bos he could’ve had millions of girls but he chose his ex’s adopted daughter ... if that’s not wrong to you you’re sick in the head buddy just like the rest of Hollywood
@Loulou Bos you’re knit picking the situation explain exactly what happened. Basically he’s sick and damn near is dating his own daughter now
3:43 - "Several weeks before it happened..." Oh Woody, I almost believed you.
Several weeks before he was accused. Duh.
@@LSSYLondon Nah... being accused isn't an "it". I don't believe that.
can you understand a text? before the case happened
From wife to mother in law 😂
Woody Allen is beating around the bush so HARD! If he didn't do it....when asked....he should say...something like "no". Instead it's anything but no. "ohh umm thats crazy umm her mom is crazy umm my career umm"
Edna Red god is taking care of business? wow thats great. Hey god can I bang my ex wife's adopted daughter? "Yeah sure son tap that ass". Woody is happy if he doesn't have to pay for what he did and Dylan won't be happy until he does.
"Beating around the bush" may not be the best choice of words for Woody lol
You're a fucking moron.
***** I can kind of see where you're coming from. For anyone to believe it is completely normal for a man to suddenly begin an affair, with a girl that he has known since she was a child (and should have viewed as a stepdaughter) is crazy. That shows you right there, that it's very likely that he did commit child molestation.
***** thanks for the heads up, if it comes to that I just won't respond anymore because I hate to talk to people who refuse to try to understand another person's logic and just stick to their own even it might not be 100% correct.
Read Moses Allen's account. He was 14 at the time. It's very illuminating.
@WarmPotato His hair wasn't there. Police said they found a hair...never showed anyone the hair, never had said hair tested. Oh no! A hair in a crawlspace which could have been anybody's...burn him!!!
@WarmPotato There was no DNA test done. You're just factually wrong.
@WarmPotato I don't remember this but it seems other people do. But so what if his hair was there?
So Moses spent 24 hours with his sister, he seems to know everything about her.
the offer for Mia to appear back in 92 to defend her side of the story went silent, until her son the rebellious 'Elmer Fudd hunting for rabbits' decided to further the salacious accusations once again in defense of his mommie is unf*cking believable. Mia is bitter and vengeful, Dylan has issues, but I doubt its her father.
I firmly believe that this man *IS INNOCENT!*
A man who literally married his adopted daughter???🫤
@@liampatrick3110 He did not marry his adopted daughter. Literally.
Woo that was weird 3:00. That was interesting way to defend case.
IKR
Yeah, agreed
I think it was actually a good way of defending the case, I mean he's right, molesting her at that point would be dumb (I'm not saying he didnt do it tho, idc, maybe he's a monster, but he's right)
@@oyemate8647 A provocative statement nonetheless
@@heathercampbell1722 well sure
I believe him. Farrow woman wanted to destroy him but she destroyed herself and some of her children instead.
do you know how common it is for men to assault women? and how is that anywhere comparable to self destruction on the scale of evil
Not saying he didn't do it, not defending him. But if Mia actually coached Dylan to lie and make this up, that's a pretty heavy burden to put on a 7 year old.
Pierre Renoir Yes: 2 Kids committed sucide under Mia care and 2 claim the y were abusive.
@@lynnewebley7270 3 of her children have now committed suicide...
shes nuts
None of us are qualified to state confidently what the truth is, but what we do know is that he has never been found guilty in a court of law, and that it is important in a free society for the accused to be presumed innocent until proven guilty.
12 Angry Men moment
He passed a lie detector, according to this interview. I didnt know that before
the best part is the guy on roller blades at 3:15. He steals the show. I'm most curious about his sexual escapades.
Watch his movies featuring minor girls. That will tell you about his escapades.
😂😂😂😂
@@dukeanddauphindonald8849 Name those movies?
What is delusional about this is to think he feel in love with soo ye after she turn 21
After how many years of grooming while he was her step daddy.
@@politicalpartyagnostic268 Exactly. So disgusting.
@@politicalpartyagnostic268He was never her step father.
Note that when Steve Kroft asks him if there's any truth to the allegation-- Allen never answers the question! He never says "no". He answers the question with another question.
How would you react to a completely irrational question, that you molested your own kid, when you know its completely made up. A simple "no" is to take the question seriously. Obviously he does not.
Note....learn how to watch the whole video all the way through Bob, at around the 10.00 minute mark he completely denies that anything happened.
At 9:58 he strongly denies all the claims.
JohnG perfectly said.
Bob Birnbaum I hate this line of t hinking .... so what’s your point? That because he didn’t say no, that he is guilty? Look at the conversation as a whole and what he says. What a stupid thing to say
Allen reveals himself in the interview to be emotionally unintelligent and self-absorbed ("Reservations about what?"), but I don't think he molested a small child, and I don't think he's vindictive or cruel. I do believe Mia Farrow can be both of those things.
why
who says, ‘I had many opportunities in the past’ while simultaneously denying they sexually abused a child?
@Kevin Since He's making the point that he was accused only once, and in a moment where doing something like that made no sense. Anyone that thinks a pedophile molests someone once--only once---and never again, is ill-informed
Someone with an intellect. The fact you clearly lack one is the reason you have to question it...
he was asked a direct question whether he took his daughter to the attic and molested her, and he DID NOT deny it. this was his opportunity to vehemently deny it, but instead he gave some convoluted roundabout answer. Because it's in true.
joolenka um looks like you didn’t watch the whole interview because he clearly stated he didn’t do it
He deserves respect. He was falsely accused.
You must have a skeleton in your closet! :/
Mia definitely manipulated Dylan. Mia is lying crazy woman.
I’m 58yo. Read a lot of books. Obsessed with psychology and the human condition. Call it gut instinct, call it a vibe. He didn’t do it. He’s selfish, self absorbed etc. The soon yi thing was wrong on many levels but not incest or molesting. Mia has an ego and she was furious, enraged...she had certainly paid him back.
Best explanation yet !
You obviously would defend him because you would do the same.
@@tipsandtricks6071 ...said someone who obviously hasn't read any books.
how do you say "thanks for the card" and then "go downstairs and open it" but not notice the steak knife sticking out?
Maybe because we didn't see the card when it was closed?
I thought that myself. Like was the card in a box? lol
Dylan Farrow, I deeply want to thank you for having cleared your father. I looked up everything I could find about the accusation and anyone can clearly see (if they look at the facts instead of the accusation) that the it was all fabricated from A to Z.
I’m not finding anything about her clearing him, where are you getting your information?
Why did he zdopt two kuds .with his wife ? Was she not able to have children with her aged step fathef / husband ?
@@HaCubbee lol
Yes!
@@whoswhooHe was NOT her step father, he has NO step children.
You can clearly see in his demeanor and openness, that he is innocent. Mia Farrow is nuts and vengeful.
Agreed
2:59 what he says here just sounds concerning
sid k It was bad bitter breakup: Mia wanted full custody so she made up lies.
sid k He is innocent
It's really strange to hear this sort of rational argument that appeals to the interviewer empaty in this sort of situation.
It's does not seem normal to me to usa a hypotatical situation in with you would plan to "become a child rapist" in a sensitive and oersonal moment like this. And people may call this just bad phrasin or bad choice of words, but in a very much anticipated interview, wich somebody who os a writer and filmmaker, used to writing dialogs and such, it just seems like a flaw of character. A classical apathic perspective from a sociopath or something like that. It really sounds concerning
"If I wanted to be a child molester, I had many opportunities ..."
Like all men in patriarchy.
@@rsu8689 yasssssss!
Did you all even listen to this? I've changed my mind after all these years. It seems Mia felt understandably humiliated, but hysterical. Soon yi was 21 so no, that's not child molestation. Look up Soon yi's side of the story. And look up the Nannys opinion of the two of them. Allen and Farrow did not even live together. They actually were not together. Not even physically, for years. I wish Allen had those phone calls on tape.
The allegations against him were complete deranged fantasy.
I think he did it. He molested Dylan.
That was an AWESOME Valentine's Day card.

Entitled. Those blokes always call their ex-partners crazy.
This case is very hard, you don’t want to dismiss someone’s allegations of SA specially after years have pass but in the other hand how to blame someone without enough proof of such an atrocious act 😢
The fact here is he had a sexual relationship with one of Mia's adopted child.
I wonder if 60 minutes interviewed Mia? I'd love to see that
@kyereCat why would a mother who wouldn't allow a man to be alone with their child stay with that man? 🧠
My own grandfather attempted to downplay his actions - he was my life mentor, my present father & the voice in my head. As a survival, I now have to rethink my whole world. Amazing how someone who taught you right from wrong denies & continues to downplay their actions. It’s always who you kno. Predators find the quiet, vulnerable ones. It creates havoc on the innocent.
What actions? It's always what? What predators? Your're a judge? Or: have you an inside version of Allen-Farrow story?
These snowflakes can't even take a lil bean fiddling.
