Diane Keaton defends Woody Allen on Twitter

doesn't work, OP

Link that works:

I always send the DL "Looking for Mr. Goodbar" threads to her hoping for comments or even a like. No response yet.

I was waiting for Diane to say something. Glad she did.

where Mia got Dylan's truth:

Question, wasn’t that attic tiny? I thought it was so small that a grownup could not fit in there.

R6 Yes. Moses has said it was even too small to accommodate a toy train set which Dylan claims was in the attic.

Dylan is probably having a nervous breakdown because she realizes her Twitter bullying campaign is dead now. Now that an a-list actress has come out in support of Woody, more actresses won't be afraid to do the same. The Mia clan was betting that no actress would come out in favor of Woody in the #metoo/#timesup era.

[quote]Dylan is probably having a nervous breakdown because she realizes her Twitter bullying campaign is dead now.

It's not though. Not at all. LA actors are such lemmings and it has become trendy to vow that they will never work with WA again! To you Dylan, I humbly ask your forgiveness for not considering your feelings before I made a career decision, says Hollywood. What a bunch of fucking phonies. Dylan, too.

What DK tweeted is levelly worded: she says what she believes, presents an interview, invites people to come to their own conclusions. The disagreers use charged and incendiary language in reply, as if they have proof of the abuse and DK does not. This controversy takes up several topic threads here and rages on social media. Are the only people who know for sure whether sexual abuse has happened are DF, WA and SYFPA, or do the social media accounts have absolute evidence that they've shared somewhere among the thousands of messages? Are the social media accounts paid PR "reputation massagers" or are they strictly posters scarred from the sexual abuse they were subjected to as minors?

I wonder how the sexual abuse victims, whose mothers chose to ignore or call liars feel when they value the sexual relationship with the abuser over their parental relationship with their child(ren, feel reading MF, RF and DF's accounts, and the differing accounts of MF's adopted children including SY. Is it only when the mother wants revenge that she'll make this a public spectacle for a quarter-century or longer, if she's wealthy enough? Does Mrs. Allen ever think of the age difference between MF and her first husband and wonder if hurt pride accompanies the betrayal and disgust MF felt at the discovery of the photos?

Are DK and SYA friends who see each other outside of WA's presence?

R10, wtf would Soon-Yi know anything about what happened between Dylan and Woody?

R5 I doubt Mia spent much time listening to Dory's album. Even less likely that she'd play it for her kids.

So Woody wasn't prosecuted because it might fuck Dylan up to put her on the stand? Ummmmmmm...so she would be more fucked up than she is now?

There was a BI about Keaton about her publicly defending WA but not leaving her daughter alone with him. That was YEARS ago though when her daughter was still a young child.

That 1992 interview isn't proof of anything. It's Woody telling his version of events. I always find it odd that WA partisans like to use his words as proof. I've seen people bring up characters from his movies as proof that Mia is crazy. His isn't the voice of God. He isn't an objective observer in his own life.

hush up keaton or no one will work wid ya

dey dont want dylan on there ass....

R16 Oh dear. It's 'their' not 'there.' Now you've lost all credibility on DL.

Can’t get it either

with a phd in engl lit, there aint nuthin i caint write da way i wants...

Good for her. She was involved with him for years. Romantically involved with him, worked with him, many times, and is still friends with him. Dylan claims to be lucky, to be happily married. She says she has the support of amazing brothers and sisters. Yet she said of Moses Farrow, "he's dead to me", since he contradicts her. She talks about a well of fortitude that saved her family from the chaos a predator brought into their home. But Mia was the person who brought that alleged predator into their home. I think Woody's a creep, and Mia's a vengeful asshole. That's my opinion. There are too many he said/she said allegations for me (someone who wasn't there in New York or Connecticut), to pretend to know what actually happened. But, think of this. Dylan says she's happily married, and has a lot of support. But was about Moses, and his story? What about Soon-Yi, and the two children she and Woody now have?

[quote]Today, I consider myself lucky. I am happily married. I have the support of my amazing brothers and sisters. I have a mother who found within herself a well of fortitude that saved us from the chaos a predator brought into our home. But others are still scared, vulnerable, and struggling for the courage to tell the truth. The message that Hollywood sends matters for them. What if it had been your child, Cate Blanchett? Louis CK? Alec Baldwin? 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?

I quoted from Dylan's piece in the NYTimes.

Good for Diane Keaton. Somebody besides Alex Baldwin should be calling out those who think they know what happened or didn't happen. Almost nobody does know, but when the herd starts to stampede, look out.

I don’t think Dylan should be bullied. I think after 20+ years she really believes this. Her mother drilled this into her head and ruined her daughters life essentially because Woody Allen married her daughter.

I think that Allen is a sleeze for getting with his girlfriends teenage daughter and if you’ve seen several of his movies you will see that 17 year old girls play a big part. This does not make him guilty of child molestation. There is zero evidence that he did this.

He married Soon-Yi. They have kids. He is a great artist who makes very hit or miss movies and keeps to himself.

I say let it lie. It is just killing some that Allen isn’t going down with the rest of them. They should be outraged by Bill Cosby and angry that one of those women didn’t blow the kid off his antics years ago. With him there is real evidence of abuse and many women that would testify. With Allen it’s not like that.

There’s Mia (her book is a great read. Very juicy and it’s interesting to see her reinvent history if you know anything about her past and how she broke up and even inspired a novel with Andre Previns marriage) story and Dylan and not much else. The judge said Allen was in appropriate and he had just started dating Mia’s daughter but he was not and never will convicted or charged formally for child abuse.

R8 wait till WA's next movie to judge whether Dylan's campaign has been successful or not. Will he still get his movies funded if he can't rely on getting well-known actors to appear in them?

Yeah I don't really get why people are shitting on Dylan?

Because either she was molested by Woody or her mother lied to her into believing she was, which by the way is just as traumatizing because false memories can be powerful (whole point of false memories).

Either way she's the abuse victim here.

Fuck Diane Keaton and all the sock-puppet Woody apologists on this thread.

It’s toxic misogyny once again, R24.

Woody Allen also said that if he was caught in a "love nest with 15 12-year-old girls" tomorrow, people wouldn't be surprised and would say "yeah, I always knew that about him." So what does Diane have to say about that?

R22 and r24, I agree. Whatever happened (or didn’t happen) to Dylan, she’s still a victim of something bad by one of her parents. I won’t attack her, even if I think she’s handling this whole thing poorly.

Here come all the fraus

"Now that an a-list actress has come out in support of Woody, more actresses won't be afraid to do the same."

Diane Keaton is "A-list?" HAHAHAHAH! Her "A-List" stardom has been long, long gone. And who cares what she says anyway? She's nuts. Always has been, a real weirdo.

"Here come all the fraus,"

Stick your "frau" shit up your ass. Woody lover. You're an idiot.

"What of the hundreds outside Elaine's who saw him with his hands up the little girl's [Dylan's] dress through the open door of the limousine?"

"Woody WAS obsessed with Dylan, and at least weekly took her, alone, to ELAINE'S, for pete's sake. Elaine's was NOT a kid-friendly restaurant; it was a grown-up place. Bystanders have recounted seeing the 6-7 year old child on Woody's knee, instead of in her own chair where she belonged."

So I'm some kind of apologist (and misogynist, to boot), for making the point that a WOMAN with talent is willing to defend a friend she's known for years? R21 makes a very good point: watch out when they stampede. Because then, out goes any rational discussion or consideration. There's a real danger, especially here in the US, with the lynch-mob mentality. I'm someone who believes in facts. Proven facts (which is why I respect science, not religion). There's little in the way of proven facts to deal with. The ones that really are facts are pretty shady, which is why I think Woody and Mia already had a creepy relationship. It was pretty shady of Mia to imply that Ronan was Frank Sinatra's child, since he was born while she was still involved with Woody, and she gave the interview while Sinatra's widow was still alive. I think Mia and Dylan can't see anything beyond their own self-interest. I'm not attacking Dylan, but I don't think we all have to collectively swallow "her truth" without considering what her brother, Moses, has written. I don't like Woody or Mia, and I think Dylan is a victim, but she's old enough at this point to stop victimizing other people (like Soon-Yi and he daughters). BTW, I'm R20, and I stand by what I wrote.

R20. I feel stupid that I can’t spell this properly but at the end of the speech, the nice wind up, did he call her a “fellactis”?

Did he call her a cocksucker is what I’m asking haha ??

R24. I agree no matter what happened this open exposure of such a topic is beyond toxic for a young person.

I hate to say this but I bet she sees a therapist twice a week and takes anti-depressants and benzos everyday.

I personally think Mia sunk this child. Convinced her she was abused and that her father got away with it completely free and stole her sister. Otherwise I think she would be a normal young woman with a screwed up family but who doesn’t have one of those?

I just don’t see the evidence for him going for a little girl. If you watch Woody Allen‘s movies his whole thing is 16 or 17 or 18-year-olds. You can call that gross but it’s not child moleststation.

Baldwin didn't do Woody Allen any favors by attacking Dylan personally, but this one seems like a reasonable response.

R29. Keaton is eternally A List.

Jodie Foster, Sean Commery, Sidney Poitier, Kurt Douglass. With the exception of foster they haven’t made movies in years but they are all Still A list.

Hollywood still recognizes and respects dues and people that have hung in their. It’s hard to be an actor because most people that even have the talent I have a hard time getting the right shot at the right part.

keaton is beloved in the biz

so shut ur dam mouths....

I'm just over everybody online thinking they know what happened to the point where you cant even SAY that - if you imply that anybody that wasn't there doesn't know what happened then you're suddenly a rape apologist, do not pass go - there are real troubles in this world and Woody fucking Allen and this ancient saga is not one of them

Hey, R34, I don't think you're out of line. I assumed he meant she was a gifted stamp collector, but I honestly don't know what word he was using. Don't feel stupid.

R39, That's exactly the point. The collective 'We' don't know what happened. At this point, it's pretty much conjecture.

I'm sorry but don't child molesters do their molesting in private and not smack in the center of Elaine's?

R41 Yes. And abusers don't always abuse the entire family. Many abusers pick one, hide from the rest of the family, and make the victim fear for their life so they won't tell.

[quote]Jodie Foster, Sean Commery, Sidney Poitier, Kurt Douglass. With the exception of foster they haven’t made movies in years but they are all Still A list.

I hear Kurt Douglass raped Natalie Wood.

I'd be afraid of him but at 101 he is nearly 67 years older than me, so I think I could get away quickly. I am a dancer after all.

"keaton is beloved in the biz

so shut ur dam mouths...."

I seriously doubt that she's " beloved in the biz." So shut YOUR fucking idiot mouth.

By the way, Keaton is a mental case. In her memoir she talks about what a great body Woody has. Yes, I'm sure he's built like a brick shithouse. She's a crazy woman.

Honestly I think its somewhat laughable to believe that Dylan made it up and is lying about it DECADES later just because her mother was made about the divorce. People get divorced everyday without that happening.

Yes, there are child molesters who focus on one of their children and leave the others alone. Brad Davis, poor, screwed up, alcoholic, druggie, wildly promiscuous Brad Davis was one of those unfortunates. His mother was in love with him; she insisted he sleep in the same bed with her and she molested her beloved, favorite son. When he told her he didn't want to sleep with her anymore, she started crying; apparently she wanted to continue that intimacy. Of course, Brad Davis became a textbook case of a sexual abuse victim, his shame and self-loathing manifesting itself in mutilation (he would cut himself), drug and alcohol addiction and promiscuity with both sexes. He eventually got clean and sober, but was too late; he had contacted AIDS and tired of the suffering, euthanized himself. Poor Brad. Poor Dylan.

Whenever I see Dylan, I see Vanessa Bayer.

Yes R47. Did you know she was a make a wish kid?

Keaton IS beloved in the industry, which is why other A-listers -- Steve Martin, Martin Short, Meryl Streep, all of whom are well-liked -- are seated at her table in R20's clip from the AFI Lifetime Achievement Award event.

Why the hell would Keaton be "beloved?" She's not different from a lot of other actors from her era.

Actually at her AFI tribute last year virtually ever co-star she ever had (even her exes like Allen, Warren Beatty and Pacino) spoke very highly ever. I know they always do that but this ceremony seemed particularly genuine. Beatty even said that the only reason "Reds" worked was because of her. (He gave her a very hard time on the film.)

So fucking WHAT if she is "beloved" in Hollywood (and I don't think she really is)? She's a ditz, a bird brain. Her defense of Woody Allen is reprehensible.

R52 here, who KNOWS all demented women crying Daddy Abuse after being brainwashed by Crazy Mommy are telling the truth.

Oh, and here's the frau misandrist, R30.

Speaking for ALL the frau men-haters here.

Your pussies are not our concern. No one here wants them. Leave your cunt troubles at the door, please.

Real issues about women we care about. Not celebrity phonies. Go eat a pound cake, you cunts.

r14, her daughter is 22 now, what would she have to do with Woody Allen . The idea of what him baby sitting her is so random and bizzare, I can't even.

R56: reading comprehension is not your forte, is it?

Keaton defended him before so this isn't anything new.

WA asks people to defend him every time the heat gets turned up on him because of the allegations. Keaton is one of his most reliable defenders.

Poor kid. she was used by the mother in the bitter divorce.

R14 that blind wasn’t from that long ago. And the Farrows are the source of it no doubt. CDAN is a big mouthpiece for them and totally in their camp.

Judd Apatow Hits Out At Diane Keaton Over Woody Allen Support

love diane.

u tell em honey !

Allen was already in therapy for inappropriate behavior with both Dylan and Ronan, R59. And Mia wasn't even the one who turned him in, it was the pediatrician who first examined Dylan. A therapist involved in the case says that the biggest wrong thing Mia did was not take what Allen was doing as seriously as she should have until the authorities got involved.

I mean, I can't fathom why anyone would defend a guy who per court documents put his hands around Ronan's throat and twisted his leg when he was a kid, in front of psychologists, who said that Allen shouldn't be unsupervised with Ronan anymore. A witness saw him with his head up Dylan's skirt while she had no underwear on. He was in therapy for his behavior with them when he started screwing Soon-Yi.

Even if he didn't molest Dylan, what he is proven to have done is enough to shun the guy. But no, people who don't give a shit about anything except what movies they are cast in just HAVE to defend the guy.

The only thing that matters R63 is Woody isn’t a pedophile. He was investigated by New York and Connecticut who both concluded no molestation occurred. Three physical examinations of Dylon showed no physical evidence of molestation. The pediatrician you cite was required by law to report any statement of abuse regardless of any or no evidence. Who cares about the Soon Yi incident. It’s adults engaged in legal behavior that is not our business to judge.

Diane has been in Woody's corner from the beginning. When he shot Manhattan Murder Mystery right after the story broke she took over the role that was supposed to be played by Farrow. As far as his relationship with Soon Yi goes, haven't they been together for 25+ years at this point? It's a shame this shit has to be dragged up again. Didn't Apatow produce that trash GIRLS on HBO? You know the series that showed young women nude, having their asses eaten out and sucking cock?

Someone said in another thread that Dylan can still press charges against Allen. Is that true?

[quote]I'm someone who believes in facts. Proven facts (which is why I respect science, not religion). There's little in the way of proven facts to deal with. The ones that really are facts are pretty shady

Somehow missed this, but it's hilarious. "I believe in facts, but the facts are super shady so I don't believe in them."

Woody Allen's Ex-Girlfriend Assesses Allegations

The one who was 16 when she started dating him? Okay.

Alec Baldwin Says Dylan Farrow Is Using Tears to “Shame” People Into Believing Her

Haha holy shit. He also says Dylan is just like a white woman who lied about a black man raping her, leading to the man being lynched.

I mean, even if you think that, why would you say it publicly? He sounds like a racist, sexist asshole.

Which he is, but you'd think at his advanced age he would know to keep a fucking lid on it. Idiot.

Diane Keaton is a one-trick pony, who can't act her way out of a bag and she's defending a jewish pedophile? Fabulous!

Woody Allen defends himself on 60 Minutes in '92

She's certifiably nuts. No one cares what she thinks.

R74 If Diane Keaton is certifable, has anyone certified her ? R72 Nice gratuitous anti-semitism there. Now I'm convinced!

R72 fuck off Nazi scum. I don't even like Allen and think he's guilty as hell, but you can fuck off with that storm front bullshit.

R63 You have so many rumors, unnamed sources and unproven details in your post, it would need 10 pages of footnotes. Woody Allen has famously been in therapy his whole life, his first stand-ups involved his analysts, so don't ascribe the Dylan thing to his therapy, it doesn't wash at all. Nice try.

Mia was specifically advised to bring her daughter to a doctor - IIRC by her lawyer - with the accusations because a doctor was required by law to report her accusations. The doctor wasn't Mia's first stop on her scorned woman tour.

Mia's plan to get back at Woody included criminal behavior on her part such as attempted subornation of perjury. There was plenty of probable cause to prosecute her for this.

the therapist was appointed by the divorce judge to make sure nothing was going on and NOTHING was going on, that was the conclusion!

[quote]Diane Keaton is a one-trick pony

If this is taken as true, then Mia is about a .3 trick pony.

"Mia's plan to get back at Woody included criminal behavior on her part such as attempted subornation of perjury. There was plenty of probable cause to prosecute her for this."

You're a liar, as are all Woody lovers. And Diana Keaton is a stupid twat who takes up for her beloved Woody because without him she would never have had a career.

"The only thing that matters [R63] is Woody isn’t a pedophile."

No, he's just a creepy, ugly guy who always had a fetish for teenage girls. And he developed a fixation on his adopted girl child and did things to her that would make any sane person want to vomit. And he took split beaver shots of the mentally disabled adopted teenage daughter of the woman who'd been his significant other for years, who he eventually started fucking. And there are fuckheads who are DEFENDING this piece of shit? There are indeed some strange people in this world.

R81 "Diana" Keaton may be a stupid twat, and everyone who disbelieves the 25-year old disproven charges may be a liar, and you may be a genius. But just as a piece of advice -- when you have a 4-line post, where you misspell the name of the subject person, and start with a quote which you then don't even try to address with facts, you look like, well, a stupid twat.

Isn't Keaton permanently A-list merely by virtue of having been in "The Godfather" and "Annie Hall"?

R82, the mentally disabled Soon Yi has a graduate degree from a prestigious university -- what do you got?

Oh, settle down, [R82], the subject matter is his alleged abuse of a 7 year old child, not his general sleaze factor or character flaws. Go start a "Woody Allen Isn't A Nice Person" thread.

"The mentally disabled Soon Yi has a graduate degree from a prestigious university -- what do you got?"

What do I "got?" Two college degrees. And I didn't have to suck the cock of a rich, old, ugly, creepy perv to get them, either.

R84, I think that's right. I can't say I care either way, and I've never seen a Woody Allen movie in my life as he physically repulses me, but the least he can do now is repay Diane by casting her in a good role.

He practically roasted her at her lifetime achievement award, saying she looked old and wore outfits to hide her sexuality, but then called her a "fellatrix" as though blowjobs were why she was getting the award.

Who wants to defend a guy like that?

he is a creepy motherfucker, but it doesn't make him a criminal.

fellatrix lol

As r89 proves having a sense of humor is now dead

Great Fellatrixes of Hollywood -

Paulette Goddard

Marilyn Monroe

Diane Keaton

NANCY DAVIS REAGAN

R87 Of course you do. And the reason you didn't suck cock is because nobody wanted your mouth. Which actually is also the case here.

"Of course you do. And the reason you didn't suck cock is because nobody wanted your mouth. Which actually is also the case here."

Go suck Woody's wrinkled,shriveled, cheesy dangle, Woody lover. You KNOW you want to. You want to SO bad.

My new fave word. At least one good thing has emerged from the dozen threads about this mess

I don't see how anyone can defend Woody Allen

My favorite Harry Potter character is Fellatrix LeStrange

There is more than one witness who has stated Mia tried to get them to testify against Woody by lying. Even bullied them. That's enough for probable cause. THAT is attempted subornation of perjury. THAT is a crime.

What Mia did to Dylan is shameful. She better have made her nine First Fridays.

Mia takes after her cunty mom.

"There is more than one witness who has stated Mia tried to get them to testify against Woody by lying. Even bullied them. That's enough for probable cause. THAT is attempted subornation of perjury. THAT is a crime."

Who are they? Let's have some names. You DO have their names, don't you? And are they credible (that is, if they exist at all)? Or are they just lying through their teeth? It's obvious you're a Woody lover. Why should anybody give a shit about anything you say, anyway? Woody loves are notorious liars.

The Woody worshipper always tries to come back to these threads and sneak in a last word. Pitiful.

R101 They're witnesses. That means they're publicly known. Don't be so f-ing lazy. Here, I'll start you off with a recent one -- Moses, her own adopted son.

and at least one of the babysitters/nannies.

R102 Sneaking in a last word on a public internet forum, that's the lowest of the low, isn't it? How dare the Woody Worshipper do that? I can tell that you are not a Woody Worshipper, bless you.

Didn't his ex-girlfriend Stacey Nelkin testify that Mia approached her to get her to lie about how old she was when she started dating Woody? She was 17 but Mia wanted her to say she was 15.

"They're witnesses. That means they're publicly known. Here, I'll start you off with a recent one - Moses her own adopted son."

I've never heard of them. Since you know who they are, let's have their names. I'm lazy, and since you know so much about this, I'm sure you want to enlighten us all with the names of the witnesses. And one of them is Moses? Yeah, HE is certainly very credible (snort).

Why are we letting this straight drama tear Datalounge apart?

R107 Yes you are lazy, and dumb. We already gave you three people who have publicly come out and accused Mia of lying and suborning perjury. You've never heard of them because you don't read anything that disturbs your uninformed opinion. And go blow your nose, please

Moses was not a witness at the trial and he was not a witness to most of the incidents that are documented, i.e. the strangling of Ronan, the twisting of Ronan's leg, Allen's face up Dylan's skirt, Allen rubbing lotion on Dylan's inner thighs.

He's the only person claiming to have been approached by Mia to lie, but part of the reason his claim is odd is that there was no opportunity for him to do so. He was 12 or 13 at the time, wasn't involved in the trial in any capacity, and has not since been called to testify, nor has he been subpoenaed.

I don't know why you keep coming back to these threads with lies. What's the point? You can't be a paid shill; no one would pay you for being so dumb. Have you just taken it upon yourself to try to defend Woody Allen? Because the guy wouldn't piss on you if you were on fire.

I don't think anyone is talking narrowly of people who testified at trial. These are people who have spoken for the record and they include Moses, at least one of the babysitters, and Stacey Nelkin. I believe the women explicitly stated that Mia tried to influence either their public statements or their statements to investigators. Moses originally spoke against Woody and subsequently renounced those statements, supported Woody and trashed Mia as a parent.

[quote]He's the only person claiming to have been approached by Mia to lie,

That in itself isn't true. Stacey Neklin has already been brought up.

The nannies

Stacey Nelkin was 16 when dating Allen. They met on the set of Annie Hall; you can check dates for yourself. She wasn't asked to lie about her age but to confirm she was 16.

Then in 2014 she changed the story to say that Mia wanted her to lie about being 15.

R80, I got to your signature line and that's where I lost it. Nice.

Hopefully this link will work, but if it doesn't, it's easy to find in Google Books mentions that Nelkin was 16 when she met Allen.

Physical evidence is rarely found on child abuse victims.

Even if Nelkin met him at 16 it doesn’t they didn’t start dating till she was 17. Allen waited till after the filming of Manhattan and Mariel Hemingway turning 18 to persue her, by her own account. Why don’t you believe them?

And for all the people who bring up the housekeeper and babysitter who testified against Allen, the housekeeper was caught in a big lie by Allen's attorneys, according to the WAPO "Dueling Nannies" article, which shows how conniving, abusive and coercive Mia was.

"And for all the people who bring up the housekeeper and babysitter who testified against Allen, the housekeeper was caught in a big lie by Allen's attorneys, according to the WAPO "Dueling Nannies" article, which shows how conniving, abusive and coercive Mia was."

Go fuck yourself, Woody lover. Knock yourself out trying to portray the revolting Woody Allen as a wrongly maligned innocent and Mia Farrow as an insane, vindictive harridan. Everyone with a brain knows that Allen has a fetish for young girls and that Dylan Farrow is far more credible than any Woody lover. You're quite a piece of shit yourself, defending a nasty creep, a CHILD MOLESTER. Fuck off, shithead.

R120 = Ronan.

R120 is nutsy cuckoo.

Jerry Seinfeld dated a 17-year-old high school student when he was 40.

R120 young girls is different from children.

R101, are you on something? You don't seem right.

[quote]R101"There is more than one witness who has stated Mia tried to get them to testify against Woody by lying. Even bullied them. That's enough for probable cause. THAT is attempted subornation of perjury. THAT is a crime." Who are they? Let's have some names. You DO have their names, don't you? And are they credible (that is, if they exist at all)? Or are they just lying through their teeth? It's obvious you're a Woody lover. Why should anybody give a shit about anything you say, anyway? Woody loves are notorious liars.

Last week a woman named Stacey Nelkin, whom I had dated many years ago, came forward to the press to tell them that when Mia and I first had our custody battle 21 years ago, Mia had wanted her to testify that she had been underage when I was dating her, despite the fact this was untrue. Stacey refused.

Diane Keaton is defending a pedophile that she calls "friend", and yet Allen hasn't give her a role in what? 30 years? Amazing firendship! It was already embarrassing when she accepted his honorary Golden Globe a few years ago. He couldn't care less about her. She's delusional.

If she thinks he's innocent based on dating and being intimate with him for years and then considering him a dear friend for years afterward, why would she only defend him if there was something in it for her? That, by definition, isn't a friend, R127.

R128 Allen ROASTED her while she was receiving a tribute, see R89. Diane has nothing but nice words to say about him (even blindly defend him against the Dylan abuse accusation although she wasn't even there) just because they fucked centuries ago. And it's obvious that she still hopes to get a role in one of his movies again, especially because her career is dead, but she's too old for him now. Would she defend Woody if he was a nobody? I don't think so.

It's amazing how people still believe in "true friendships" in Hollywood when money, fame and power are involved.

R126 is the perfect example of how all the defenses of Allen used today come from Allen's own mouth back during the trial.

Anyway, filming for Annie Hall began on 10 May 1976, and Stacey Nelkin didn't turn 17 years old until 10 September 1976.

This old gossip column from January 1977 reports Woody carrying her books for her. She's 17 by this time, but the column makes it clear the film was shot the prior summer, and she would have been 16 then.

Even in 1977, people were clearly unimpressed with Allen dating schoolgirls.

Everything that has been unearthed in theae threads makes it obvious that Allen, even if he didn't molest Dylan, is a terrible person who has committed crimes.

He was seen physically abusing Ronan at least twice, and seen behaving inappropriately with Dylan twice, with four different witnesses, one for each incident.

He has twice slept with underaged girls, tried to a third time, and perhaps a fourth with Soon-Yi; her date of birth isn't known.

Why waste weeks trying to prove on DL that Allen didn't molest Dylan? The absolute best you can do is, "Sure, he physically assaulted his son, inappropriately touched his daughter, and slept with underaged schoolgirls, but he did NOT penetrate Dylan!"

Jesus, why bother?

dear never say die dylan: feelings don't die easily because we keep feeding them memories.

let it go. living in the past is useless. attacking peopled who work(ed) with woody is uncalled for. crazy.

why should they base their career decisions on something that may or may not have happened 122 years ago? that is NOT YOUR BUSINESS.

please shut up. we are sick of you being a victim. bad life choice.

thanks, everyone

[R131] has just demonstrated perfectly what's wrong with the logic behind these anti-Woody posts: "Woody, even if he didn't molest Dylan, is a terrible person...." Fine; he's a terrible person. But Dylan's accusation and all the focused outrage is specifically about his alleged molestation of a 7 year old and these posters are happy to completely ignore that and condemn him for being a putz.

If we're going to ruin the careers of sleazeballs everywhere, there won't be anyone left standing.

R33: 200 supporters. Hahahaha!

In the link at R116, Nelkin says she was 17.

F&F this whole thread full of crazy people

crazy, maybe. some of you should learn the difference between pedophilia and dating inappropriately young (but not children) women. i don't think a pedophile would have been at all interested in soon-yi.

Apparently the internet age of consent is 20? Even dating a 19 year old will get one labeled a pedophile because it has “teen” in it?

R131 is a fruitcake. There is absolutely no logic in its post. Just judgment of things to which it has limited knowledge and events which it chooses to mischaracterize.

Damn why do people try so hard to push their agenda? Is this just classic transference?

R122 wants to suck Woody's cock.

"Last week a woman named Stacey Nelkin, whom I had dated many years ago, came forward to the press to tell them that when Mia and I first had our custody battle 21 years ago, Mia had wanted her to testify that she had been underage when I was dating her, despite the fact this was untrue. Stacey refused."

You believe Woody Allen's shit? If somebody he "dated" claimed that Mia wanted to perjure herself she was probably paid off by pervy Woody. You're a fucking idiot.

R131 "Allen, even he didn't molest Dylan, is a terrible person." Um, the whole point is whether he molested Dylan, dear. Your old-maid worries about him shtupping teenage girls is not the point. It's called their choice. Take all the "terrible" people out of Hollywood and you've got a huge screen full of commercials and requests to turn off y our cellphones. Period.

The Farrow clan had to break the glass on their emergency "Somebody said something nice about Woody Allen" kit. First up were spoons for them to place in their mouths to prevent biting their own tongues off (as if the world would be so lucky), next were comfort blankets for swaddling, then a one at a time screaming and crying fest. Once they were all nice and hoarse, they popped tranquilizers so they could attack Keaton via any electronic means possible, then get some rest and do it all again a few hours later.

French film distributor defends Woody Allen following sexual abuse allegations

Writing in the French weekly Le Point, Mars Films head Stephane Celerier dismissed the furor over renewed allegations by Allen’s adopted daughter, Dylan Farrow, that Allen molested her in an attic in 1992 when she was 7. Celerier describes the accusation as a family drama caught in the crosshairs of the #MeToo movement amid fallout from the allegations of rape and sexual harassment against Hollywood film producer Harvey Weinstein.

It is “shameless opportunism,” Celerier said of the fresh attacks against the director in the media that he said “taint the dignity of real victims.”
