[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do people watch Woody Allen and Roman Polanski films? They do.[/quote]

I find the Woody Allen thing conflicting. Most of the negativity around him comes from Mia. Mia had plenty of her own problems. Several of her adopted kids are dead, several have accused her of abuse, and not all the kids support Dylan and her accusations against Allen. What is the truth? Nobody knows.[/quote]

Doesn’t change Woody Allen’s grooming behavior. (Come on! He made it official with Soon Yi the minute she turned 18!)
And the “nobody knows” comment isn’t accurate. Dylan Farrow “knows” what he did to her and has been telling her story publicly for years.
Years.
People just dont want to “know” this about him so they pretend that she must have been coached by a disgruntled Mia AnD if Soon Yi is fine now as an adult, then it’s perfectly okay that he groomed her as a child and then married her as soon as she was an adult. it’s fine.

Same with Polanski. The accuser says she’s gotten past it and is fine now. Doesn’t change the fact that he, as a grown adult in a position of power over her potential career, drugged and had sex with her when she was 14.

People don’t like to admit when their idols are such flawed humans. Cognitive dissonance

Woody Allen not being “cancelled” bothers me more than MJ (who is deceased) or Polanski (who is irrelevant, to my knowledge). Woody Allen still makes blockbuster movies and still commands top actors in them - why do actors agree to be in his movies and why does anyone go to see them given what he’s done. I have lost a lot of respect for actors who continue to work with him (and there are so many!). [/quote]

Because he was cleared of the charges and it was determined the child had likely been coached? Why should he be canceled based on innuendo? Also pedophiles never stop and in 25 year or so not a single other accusation or allegation against him. [/quote]
 Won’t cleared of charges means they found you not guilty. It’s not the same as innocent. See OJ Simpson. [/quote]

Right. See the Kevin Spacey thread. Everyone on that thread and in real life has rejected him / finds him skeevy. But Woody Allen still has a thriving career. [/quote]

Because there’s nothing there but a jilted Mia egging her daughter on.[/quote]
