Woody Allen Persecuted

Apropos of Nothing by Woody Allen. 

I just read his book.
I had thought that Woody and Mia Farrow were married. They were not. They never lived together. They both had many different lovers. Soon-Yi was a Korean orphan adopted by Mia Farrow. Soon-Yi was a college student when she and Woody first had sex.  She was not a minor.  They have been married for 25 years now. He is 35 years older than she. It was never proved that Alan molested his daughter Dylan. He has denied it. Two separate investigation by Yale and the NY Police say he did not.

I take the position that Allen is harassed by allegations against him. He is innocent until proven guilty no matter what public opinion says.

The book is fun to read. We learn about how he makes films, the people he knows, failures and successes, and his quirky sense of humor.

Incidentally, I like his movies. He was born in Brooklyn and attended NYU, as I did. We are about the same age.
