he is a child sex offender. stop making excuses for yourselves. if well known actors stop working with him, he will die. his movies might still get made, because he has the money, but they wont nearly be talked about as much if he doesnt have the people. and i doubt he would continue his work if he wasn’t getting any recognition for it. these people are hiding behind the idea that “nothing could possibly bring him down because of his legacy and talent, so me working/not working with him won’t change that.” This selfishness & convenient ignorance is why he is still around. he is still alive because you’re still making movies with him. he needs you. you have the power to kill his career, and you wont. it’s disgusting and i wont turn a blind eye to it or pretend that his ‘talent’ is the only reason he is still in the business. i hold all of these people plus plenty others accountable as to why he hasn’t suffered any consequences career wise for what he is and has done.

…These are not possible constructions, but they reflect exactly the false and desperate knowingness of the smartest kid in the class. “When it comes to relationships with women I’m the winner of the August Strindberg Award,” the Woody Allen character tells us in Manhattan; later, in a frequently quoted and admired line, he says, to Diane Keaton, “I’ve never had a relationship with a woman that lasted longer than the one between Hitler and Eva Braun.” These lines are meaningless, and not funny: they are simply “references,” the way Harvey and Jack and Anjelica and A Sentimental Education are references, smart talk meant to convey the message that the speaker knows his way around Lit and History, not to mention Show Biz.”

Ronan Farrow, the estranged son of Woody Allen, has penned an op-ed slamming both his filmmaker father as well as the media for not devoting as much press to the director’s alleged sexual abuse as they do to his new films.
