I believe Dylan. Its rubbish though because Ive really enjoyed his films especially the very early slapstick ones. I do wish the documentry showed both sides.

I'm going to start it tonight but I think it would be considered in bad taste to show a video of a very young child describing her abuse and to then show "the other side".
I can't believe he's still able to live his life like nothing happened and people still defend him, it's baffling. I wonder if the popularity of this doc will have any effect on him?

I've just read that back and realised it sounded like I was saying you were defending him OP but I just meant in general!

I’m only on to the second part, it’s very mixed up, I think there was some fallout but it’s only been recently.

I watched it all and found it very compelling. The Farrow family seem very sincere. I then read the essay Moses wrote in support of his father and it was also very compelling. I think Woody Allen is a strange man and I absolutely believe he had an inappropriate relationship with Dillon. After more online reading it is clear that Mia Farrow's massive family of children suffered many difficulties in later life and perhaps the sunny videos of the lifestyle portrayed at their idyllic Connecticut house by the lake cannot be taken on face value.

Definitely not, there was something not right. The children never thrived as adults. Perhaps the first three with Andre Previn. I do hope the Jolie Pitts dont end up with such massive issues.

Of course Ronan (Satchel) who is the biological son of Mia and Woody is a very successful man and broke the Weinstein scandal. He has no contact with his Father.
