Woody Allen’s adopted daughter, Dylan Farrow, has given a very specific account of sexual abuse by the director in 1992. Allen has refused to comment when promoted by The New York Times- which originally broke the story.
The story is not a new one. The allegations first arose in 1992 when Dylan was only 7 years old. However, at the time, Allen claimed the allegations were made up by his ex-girlfriend Mia Farrow. Charges were not pressed at that time.
Allen is most known for his writing and directing skills. His most famous work includes Annie Hall, Midnight in Paris, and Manhattan.
