Honestly this interview turned my stomach.
Its interesting that he's finally describing how the relationship was 'paternal' in nature but yet doesn't seem to think anything is wrong with that?

Sorry didn't want to upset others but just thought the turnaround in whats he's publicly putting out there is interesting as he has always been adamant that he wasn't a stepfather or father figure in any way (even when there was masses of evidence to the contrary) but now this.

Yes I've always believed Dylan too. Allen's defence that its all retaliation doesn't stand up as he was in therapy about Dylan's accusations when Mia found out what was happening with Soon-Yi. He is disgusting, vile, how he's still working and respected in the industry is baffling.

How he can get people to work with him is baffling. Most normal people don't want personal or professional association with people who do what he did. Turns my stomach, the weaselly pervert.

She deferred to me, and I was happy to give her an enormous amount of decision making just as a gift and let her take charge of so many things.

Well that is really nice of him. What an amazing guy.
