On Saturday February 1st,
New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristof published on his blog an open letter written by Dylan Farrow,
the adopted daughter of actress Mia Farrow and legendary Hollywood film director Woody Allen.
The 28 year old who is now married described in
vivid and horrifying detail how Allen sexually molested her from age 7. Dylan recalled
how her abuse started and how it went on for a while. She then talks about
her difficulties growing up with almost no one believing her, a victim,
and everyone loving and praising Allen, a molester.
Farrow split from Allen in 1992 when she found out he was having an
affair with another daughter, Soon-Yi who she adopted from Korea in
1978. She reported the sexual relationship between Allen and Soon-Yi and
also filed charges that Allen had molested their daughter Dylan, then 7
years old. Allen denied the charges and was never prosecuted. Allen
went on to marry Soon Yi in 1997.
