1. Mia Farrow was 11 the first time she met Frank Sinatra who was 42. And 16 when she began dating him.
Mia Farrow has always tried to link the alleged sexual abuse of Dylan Farrow, a prepubescent 7 years old little girl, to the relationship between Woody Allen and Soon-Yi Previn who was 21 years old when they began their romantic relationship.
She has multiplied lies to convince people that Soon-Yi wasn’t 21 but much younger and her representatives asked to Stacey Nelkin to lie and says she was only 15 when she was dating Woody Allen.
The official version claims that Mia Farrow met Frank Sinatra when she was 19, and he was nearing 50. Mia Farrow was on the 20th Century Fox lot filming Peyton Place when she ran into the crooner, who was shooting WWII film Von Ryan’s Express.
But first, in her autobiography, What Falls Away, Mia Farrow wrote she met Frank Sinatra when she was 11 years old: “Pretty girl” he had joked and my father returned, “You stay away from her”.
Mia Farrow met Frank Sinatra when she was 11 years old
And second, during a shoot with photographer Tom Palumbo, Mia Farrow, 16 years old, said she was dating Frank Sinatra, “but don’t tell my mother”
During a shoot with photographer Tom Palumbo, Mia Farrow, 16 years old, said she was dating Frank Sinatra “but don’t tell my mother”
So, since he met her when she was 11 years old, how long Frank Sinatra stayed away from Mia Farrow?
On July 19, 1966, Mia Farrow married Frank Sinatra: she was 21 years old and Frank Sinatra 50. In November 1967, while she was filming Rosemary’s Baby directed by Roman Polanski, her first leading film role, Sinatra’s lawyer served her with divorce papers. They remained friends until Sinatra’s death.
2. Mia Farrow became pregnant by Andre Previn when he was still married with her friend Dory Previn.
In 1968 Mia Farrow began an affair with conductor André Previn who was married with her friend, the singer-songwritter Dory Previn.
In 1969 Dory Previn discovered that Mia Farrow had become pregnant by her husband, which led to their separation. Dory Previn, who had a history of emotional fragility and mental illness, fell apart. Fearful of traveling in general and of flying in particular, she had a breakdown on an airplane that was waiting to take off, shouted unintelligibly and tore at her clothes, and spent several months in a psychiatric hospital.
In 1970, Dory Previn wrote the song Beware of young girls, about Mia Farrow:
……………………………………………
She was my friend, my friend My friend, she was invited to my house Oh yes, she was and though she knew
My love was true and no ordinary thing She admired my wedding ring She admired my wedding ring
Andre Previn filed for divorce. Farrow gave birth to twin sons in February 1970 and on September 10, 1970, Mia Farrow married him in London; she was 25 and he was 41.
3. Mia Farrow lied in court that Dory Previn was estranged from her husband Andre Previn when she became pregnant by him.
“Did you become pregnant by Mr. Previn while he was still married?” Mr. Abramowitz asked.
He asked about the song, “Beware of Young Girls,” released in 1970 by Mr. Previn’s previous wife, the songwriter Dory Previn. “I know that it referred to me,” Ms. Farrow said.
4. Mia Farrow and Woody Allen never married and never lived together.
Mia and her kids lived on Central Park West. Woody lived in his apartment on Fifth Ave. In fact, Woody never once stayed over night at Mia’s apartment in 12 years.
5. During her twelve years relationship with the director, Mia Farrow appeared in thirteen Woody Allen’s films:
1982 – A Midsummer Night’s Sex Comedy
1983 – Zelig
1984 – Broadway Danny Rose
1985 – The Purple Rose of Cairo
1986 – Hannah and Her Sisters
1987 – Radio Days
1987 – September
1988 – Another Woman
1989 – New York Stories (Oedipus Wrecks)
1989 – Crimes and Misdemeanors
1990 – Alice
1991 – Shadows and Fog
1992 – Husbands and Wives
6. In December 1987, Mia Farrow gave birth to Satchel (Ronan), Woody Allen’s son… or is it Frank Sinatra’s son?
Ronan Farrow should be Woody Allen only biological child. But in a October 23, 2013 Vanity Fair article, Maureen Orth who has obediently reported Mia Farrow words and lies since her 1992 biased article, Mia Story, has written:
“I asked Mia point-blank if Ronan was the son of Frank Sinatra. “Possibly,” she answered. (No DNA tests have been done.)”
According James Kaplan, author of the second volume of “Sinatra: The Chairman,” there is no way the “My Way” singer could have gotten together with ex-wife Mia Farrow.

7. Mia Farrow cheated on Woody Allen with Frank Sinatra.
In February 7, 2014, following Dylan Farrow’s open letter published in The New York Times – thanks to columnist Nicholas Kristof, Mia Farrow’s close friend – Woody Allen wrote an answer. About Ronan Farrow, he said:
“I pause here for a quick word on the Ronan situation. Is he my son or, as Mia suggests, Frank Sinatra’s? Granted, he looks a lot like Frank with the blue eyes and facial features, but if so what does this say? That all during the custody hearing Mia lied under oath and falsely represented Ronan as our son? Even if he is not Frank’s, the possibility she raises that he could be, indicates she was secretly intimate with him during our years. Not to mention all the money I paid for child support. Was I supporting Frank’s son? Again, I want to call attention to the integrity and honesty of a person who conducts her life like that.”
8. Mia Farrow hit Soon-Yi on the face and the shoulders and cut up her clothing.
On January 13, 1992, Mia Farrow finds naked pictures of her adoptive daughter, Soon-Yi Previn, age 20, in Woody Allen’s apartment. She returned home, showed the photographs to Soon-Yi and said, “What have you done?” She left the room before Soon-Yi answered.
During the following weekend, Mia Farrow hugged Soon-Yi and said that she loved her and did not blame her. Shortly thereafter, she asked Soon-Yi how long she had been seeing Woody Allen and when Soon-Yi referred to her sexual relationship with him, Mia Farrow hit her on the side of the face and on the shoulders. Mia Farrow also told her older children what she had learned.
In an interview, Soon-Yi said, “When I first got friendly with Woody Allen, he and Mia were finished with their romance and were just friends. (…) Mia was always very hot-tempered and given to rages which terrified all the kids. They can’t speak freely because they’re still dependent on her. But they could really tell stories and I’m sure one day will. It’s true Mia was violent with me and I have conclusive proof…”
9. Mia Farrow gave a creepy Valentine Card to Woody Allen.
On February 1992, Mia Farrow gives Woody Allen a Valentine card, a family photograph with the children pierced by trussing skewers, and herself pierced by a steak knife wrapped in a photo of Soon-Yi:
The Valentine card given by Mia Farrow to Woody Allen in February 1992
Woody Allen has mentioned it in his 1992 interview (the video directly begins with Woody Allen speaking about Mia Farrow’s Valentine card):
10. Mia farrow wrote a note to Woody Allen accusing him of abusing Soon-Yi and wanting to abuse Dylan.
On July 11, 1992, while attending Dylan’s birthday party, Allen finds the following note (confirmed in her book by nanny Kristi Groteke to have been written by Mia Farrow) attached to the door of a bathroom near the guest room where he slept (more accurately, the door of a bathroom near the guest room where he slept):
Child molestor at today Party! Molded then abused one sister Now focused on youngest sister Family disgusted
The note is also mentioned in the interview given by Woody Allen to Steve Kroft in 1992 (the video below begins directly by talking about the note):
11. Mia Farrow has always used Woody Allen relationship with Soon-Yi Previn as a weapon.
Mia Farrow has always used Woody Allen relationship with Soon-Yi Previn to a potential sexual abuse of Dylan.
On January 13, 1992, Mia Farrow discovers nude photographs of her 19/21 years old adoptive daughter, Soon-Yi Previn in Woody Allen’s apartment.
On her memoir, Mia Farrow writes:
“After January 13, I didn’t leave him alone with any of my kids.”
Mia Farrow. A Memoir. What Falls Away – Page 283
Now I viewed his [Woody Allen] behavior with Dylan in a complete different light. I no longer believed he could control himself. I no longer believed he was dealing with his problems responsibly. I was no longer sure that his “inappropriate” and “intense” behavior with Dylan was not sexual. At exactly what point does it become child abuse?
Mia Farrow. A Memoir. What Falls Away – Page 281
This is confirmed by the Dr. Leventhal who headed the hospital team that was asked by the Connecticut State Police to investigate the claim that Mr. Allen molested Dylan.
Even before the claim of abuse was made last August, he said, “The view of Mr. Allen as an evil and awful and terrible man permeated the household. The view that he had molested Soon-Yi and was a potential molester of Dylan permeated the household.”
12. Mia Farrow stole Soon-Yi’s nude pictures, tried to show them in court and committed revenge porn against her daughter
Farrow’s attorney, Eleanor Alter, attempted to get a judge to look at nude photographs that Woody Allen took of Mia Farrow’s 21-year-old adopted daughter, Soon-Yi Previn. “These are not modeling photographs,” she said. “They are pornographic. They indicate the mental instability of the man (Allen) in question.”
But state Supreme Court Justice Phyllis Gangel-Jacob, refused to look at the photographs.
In a 2013 Vanity Fair article it appears that Mia Farrow distributed sexual photos of Soon-Yi as retaliation of her affair with Woody. In Mia’s own words, these photos were pornographic and yet she shared them with her children and with the press. It’s clear these photos were distributed with intend to humiliate Soon-Yi and they were distributed without Soon-Yi consent: that’s called revenge porn. It’s sexual abuse and many experts consider revenge porn sexual assault.
Also, keep in mind that Soon-Yi was surrounded by Mia’s older biological sons for her entire childhood: Fletcher, Sasha and Matthew. They would have gone through puberty around the same time she was it’s possible they sexualized her growing up, especially if they saw their mother didn’t respect her as a girl and a young woman.
When Mia distributed Soon-Yi’s photos to these sons, none of them stood up for Soon-Yi and even appear complicit in their mother’s crime. One of the sons, Matthiew, even gave photos to his girlfriend, Priscilla Gilman, who commented about the photos in the press, and made fun of Soon-YI, painting her as a dumb girl and a feral animal who would spit and scratch at people.
13. Dershowitz says Mia Farrow told him that Soon-Yi could be anywhere between 17 and 19 when she was between 19 and 21.
According to Alan Dershowitz‘s book, My Life in the Law, Mia Farrow told him that Soon Yi was between 17 and 19 years old when she was between 19 and 21 years old.
We drove in Mia’s house in Connecticut and she greeted us. She was fixing a leaky roof while trying to take care of her numerous children, including a blind girl and a crack baby, both of whom she has adopted. She told me that Woody has started an affair with her Korean adopted daughter, Soon-Yi. When I asked her how old Soon-Yi was, she told me nobody knew for sure because she was adopted when she was a baby; she could be anywhere from seventeen to nineteen.
14. Mia Farrow representatives asked to Stacey Nelkin to say she was 15 years old when she was dating Woody Allen.
“I said: Absolutely not! I was not fifteen.”
15. Three days before the sexual abuse allegation, Mia Farrow described Woody Allen as satanic and evil and pleaded to find a way to stop his relationship with Soon-Yi.
On Aug. 1 of 1992, Mia Farrow called her after having learned that the affair with Ms. Previn was continuing and described Woody Allen as “satanic and evil,” (The 1980s and early 1990s, have seen the day-care sex-abuse hysteria, a moral panic over alleged Satanic ritual abuse.) and pleaded with her to “find a way to stop him.”
Four days after that conversation, the psychologist testified, that Mia Farrow phoned again, saying that Dylan had begun complaining that Mr. Allen had abused her. Dr. Coates characterized Mia Farrow as having been extremely calm during the call, in contrast to her agitated state in other calls.
16. Mia Farrow videotaped Dylan’s sexual abuse allegations in many segments and many days.
Mia Farrow videotaped Dylan’s sexual abuse allegation by Woody Allen and turned the tape over to Connecticut authorities who were investigating charges of child abuse against Allen.
Nanny Thompson said in a deposition that it took the actress two or three days to videotape Dylan making the accusations. At times the youngster appeared not to be interested in the process, the nanny said in sworn affidavits taken by Allen’s attorneys.
“I know that the tape was made over the course of at least two and perhaps three days,” Thompson said. “I was present when Ms. Farrow made a portion of that tape outdoors. I recall Ms. Farrow saying to Dylan at that time, ‘Dylan, what did daddy do . . . and what did he do next?’
“Dylan appeared not to be interested, and Ms. Farrow would stop taping for a while and then continue.”
Linda Fairstein was director of the first sex crimes unit in the US. Until 2002 she oversaw the investigation of thousand of allegations of child and sexual abuse:
“When the story came out that Mia had videotaped Dylan”—in eleven segments shot at different times in different places, one nude in a bathtub, others outside showing her topless—“it sounded to me like one of the craziest things I’d ever heard. On every level, it’s the last thing you would do. First of all, videotaping her naked while asking again and again about what happened. Why are you exposing your child to these videos that someday will possibly be in the hands of the public or in the courtroom? That fact alone set off every alarm.” (Moses Farrow Speaks Out by Eric Lax)
17. When she videotaped Dylan allegations in many segments and many days, Mia Farrow made a splice in the videotape.
Kristine Groteke, was in college when she was hired by Mia Farrow as a nanny. She was at Mia Farrow’s house in Connecticut on August 4, day of the sexual abuse allegation.
In 1994, she wrote Mia & Woody: Love and Betrayal. Groteke admits that she praises Farrow as a devoted parent while disparaging Allen as rude and antisocial.
In Mia & Woody, Love and Betrayal, Groteke says, about the videotape:
“There was a splice, Mia explained, that cut out some tape inadvertently capturing Dylan’s private parts, and which, Mia felt, was “inappropriate” to show. The tape had undeniably, however, been stopped and restarted several times.”
Kristine Groteke, Mia & Woody: Love and Betrayal – Page 127
18. When a copy of the videotape landed at a television station, Mia Farrow and the police were the only ones who had copies
“I was not surprised that Mia made a videotape of Dylan saying these terrible things as I think the motive is obvious, but I was stunned that the tape would somehow find its way to the TV news.” – Soon-Yi Previn, Let’s Not Get Hysterical
A copy of the videotape with Dylan landed in the hands of producers at a local television station, who considered airing it but were stopped by lawyers representing both feuding parents, said John Springer, a spokesman for Farrow.
Springer said he didn’t know how the local Fox affiliate got the video of Dylan. But Leslee Dart, Allen’s spokeswoman, said the tape must have come from either Farrow’s attorneys or Connecticut police, the only ones who had copies. Police would not comment.
According to Justin Levine article, “the timeline of events, witness testimonies and actions of the participants all point to Farrow as the one who engineered the leak.”
19. Mia Farrow refused to take a polygraph, Woody Allen took one and passed.
Soon after Mia made her accusation, Allen voluntarily submitted to a polygraph test by an independent and highly respected man in the field: according to The Washington Post, Paul Minor (1940-2015) was the former Chief Polygraph Examiner for the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).
Woody Allen passed the test and asked to Mia Farrow to take one: she refused.
This fact has always been a big problem for the Farrow’s clan, forcing them to lie and to say that Woody Allen refused to take a polygraph administered by the Connecticut state police. Dylan Farrow herself, writes in the Los Angeles Time: Allen refused to take a polygraph administered by the Connecticut state police.
This lie seems to have been invented with many others by Maureen Orth for her 2014 listicle in Vanity Fair 10 Undeniable Facts About The Woody Allen Sexual-Abuse Allegation. Contacted by Cathy Young to ask for the source of the information, she (Maureen Orth) replied in an email that it “came from multiple sources and was fact checked (sic) by Vanity Fair.”
Except for people who believe that the glossy paper of Vanity Fair is a proof of truth, Maureen Orth is a discredited journalist, know for slandering Woody Allen and Michael Jackson.
So, there was so many sources that Maureen Orth couldn’t even give one. And to consolidate her lie and hide that Mia Farrow was asked to pass a polygraph test by Woody Allen’s lawyers and refused, Maureen Orth declares that Mia Farrow was never asked by the Connecticut Police to pass one.
Allen’s lead attorney at the time, Elkan Abramowitz, has confirmed to Cathy Young (Woody Allen’s Innocence Should Be A Feminist Cause) that Allen was neither asked, nor did he refuse, to take a polygraph test administered by the Connecticut State Police.
20. Mia Farrow knew Dory Previn’s song Daddy In The Attic.
In her open letter in The New York Times, Dylan has written: “Woody Allen took me by the hand and led me into a dim, closet-like attic on the second floor of our house.”
Undoubtedly the attic idea came to her from the Dory Previn song, “With My Daddy in the Attic.” It was on the same record as the song Dory Previn had written about Mia’s betraying their friendship by insidiously stealing her husband, André, “Beware of Young Girls.”
With my Daddy in the attic With my Daddy in the attic That is where my being wants to bed
……………………………………….
Where we’ll live on peanut butter Spread across assorted crackers And he’ll plays his clarinet When I despair
21. Mia Farrow filled an affidavit praising Woody Allen parenting skills.
It’s really strange that Mia Farrow was agreed to let Woody Allen being officially Dylan’s adoptive father, if, as she has never stopped to claim later, she suspected him to have a sexual attraction to his adopted daughter.
When Woody Allen officially adopted Moses Farrow and Dylan Farrow in December 1991, Mia Farrow filled an affidavit praising his parenting skills, saying he was a good father, better than most natural fathers, calling him a “loving, caring and nurturing father.”
The affidavit is mentioned in the court document: “Mr. Allen’s reliance on the affidavit which praises his parenting skills, submitted by Ms. Farrow in connection with his petition to adopt Moses and Dylan, is misplaced. Its ultimate probative value will be determined in the pending Surrogate’s Court proceeding. In the context of the facts and circumstances of this action, I accord it little weight. “
Why the affidavit was misplaced and why Justice Wilk accorded it little weight, he didn’t say. But anybody reading the full Supreme Court document can check how Justice Wilk, who was married to a feminist attorney was openly biased in favor of Mia Farrow. Because of Woody Allen celebrity and because he wasn’t showing remorse about his love relationship with Mia Farrow ‘s 19 years old daughter, Soon-Yi Previn, Judge Wilk’s conclusions are skewed by barely concealed revulsion toward him.
22. Mia Farrow supported Roman Polanski when he was convinced with raping Samantha Geimer, who was not yet 14 years old.
“Roman Polanski is a loyal friend, important to me, a distinguished director, important to the motion picture industry, and a brave and brilliant man, important to all people.”
This statement by Mia Farrow appears in the probation report of Roman Polanski, written after the director had been charged with statutory rape of a 13-year-old girl, Samantha Geimer.
As pointed out by Robert Weide in his excellent article, Hard questions for Roman Farrow, “Mia Farrow’s statement in Polanski’s probation report seems to imply the director’s artistic talent outweighed the damage he may have caused to the young girl who was then struggling for credibility, even after Polanski’s admission of guilt.”
23. Samantha Geimer felt used by Mia Farrow pursuing her own vendetta against Woody Allen.
On January 7, 2018, Mia Farrow tweeted to Samantha Geimer:
Dear Samantha, I need to tell you how very very sorry I am that I ever defended Polanski. I send you my respect and love
You need not be sorry. People support their friends. I understood that at 14 and took no offense to the many letters. I never needed the belief of strangers to validate my truth. Roman and my family reconciled long ago, I wish he and his family nothing but happiness.
Mia’s public apology was offered as a reply to a random twitter post, and arrived on the day of the Golden Globes. I didn’t need it and I don’t want it. I felt used by someone pursuing their own vendetta against Woody Allen. After 40 years Mia Farrow has now turned on her friend Roman, who I forgave decades ago. I’ll leave people to make of that what they will.
On March 15, 2021, following the hit job “Allen v. Farrow” aired on HBO, Samantha Geimer complained again how the Farrow family is using her against her will:
I’m upset that apparently the Farrow family decided to use a clip of me, without my permission in their film. I hear it clearly does NOT represent my feelings. Sad how so many “victims” will abuse another if they see some benefit to themselves, even a family member in some cases.
9/18/92, 9/25, 10/2, 10/9, 10/16, 10/23, 10/30, 11/6, 11/13 – Interviews of Dylan alone and interview with Ms. Mia Farrow alone by Ms. Sawyer and Dr. Hamilton
12/04/92 – Interview by Ms. Farrow by Ms. Sawyer, Dr. Hamilton and Dr. Leventhal (videotape reviewed with Ms. Farrow).
“It is our expert opinion that Dylan was not sexually abused by Mr. Allen. (…) We considered three hypotheses to explain Dylan statement: (…) and third, that Dylan was coached or influenced by her mother, Ms. Farrow.”
25. Mia Farrow’s adoptive son, Moses Farrow, says her mother convinced his sister Dylan Farrow that she was sexually abused by Woody Allen.
In 1980, Moses was a two-year-old orphan with cerebral palsy from Korea when he was adopted by Mia Farrow as a single mother. He was later adopted by Woody Allen in 1991. Read our full post about Moses Farrow.
Moses was 14 years old in 1992, when Mia Farrow accused Woody Allen to have sexually abused Dylan, 7 years old (Ronan Farrow was only 4 years old).
According to the nanny Monica Thompson’s testimony, in 1992, on one occasion almost immediately after the alleged sexual abuse, Moses, who was 14, indicated doubts about what, if anything, had taken place: “Moses came over to me and said that he believes that Ms. Farrow had made up the accusation that was being said by Dylan.”
As an adult, Moses has confirmed that Dylan Farrow has been brainwashed by Mia Farrow since she’s 7 years old:
So many times I saw my mother try to convince her that she was abused – and it has worked. Some day, I hope Dylan can escape from my mother, confront the truth and begin her own healing. #truthislouder
What breaks my heart the most is while I know that my sister, Dylan, believes what she says, I also know from my own experience, that it simply never happened. #truthislouder
I’m a very private person and not at all interested in public attention. But, given the incredibly inaccurate and misleading attacks on my father, Woody Allen, I feel that I can no longer stay silent as he continues to be condemned for a crime he did not commit.
I was present for everything that transpired in our house before, during, and after the alleged event. Now that the public hysteria of earlier this year has died down a little and I have some hope that the truth can get a fair hearing, I want to share my story.
26. Moses Farrow and Soon-Yi Previn say their mother Mia Farrow was abusive with them and her others children.
In an interview from 1992, Soon-Yi said: “Mia was always very hot-tempered and given to rages which terrified all the kids. They can’t speak freely because they’re still dependent on her. But they could really tell stories and I’m sure one day will.”
“She asked why it was on my bed. I told her I didn’t know, that perhaps the workman left it there. After a couple more demands for the answer she wanted, she slapped my face, knocking off my glasses.”
“I was given a new pair of jeans. I thought they would look cool if I cut off a couple of the belt loops. When my mother found I had done this, she spanked me repeatedly—as was her way—and had me remove all my clothes saying, ‘You’re not deserving of any clothes.’ Then she had me stand naked in the corner of her room.”
Seeing Dylan walking down the driveway at our mother’s house during her interview, I’m faced with my own childhood abuse. https://t.co/CszYErxw0c#truthislouder
For all of us, life under my mother’s roof was impossible if you didn’t do exactly what you were told, no matter how questionable the demand.
The summer between first and second grades, she was having new wallpaper installed in the bedroom I slept in, across the hall from hers on the second floor of the Connecticut house. I was getting ready to go to sleep, when my mother came over to my bed and found a tape measure. She gave me a piercing look that stopped me in my tracks and asked if I had taken it, as she had been looking for it all day. I stood in front of her, frozen. She asked why it was on my bed. I told her I didn’t know, that perhaps a workman had left it there. She asked again and again and again.
When I didn’t give the answer she wanted, she slapped my face, knocking off my glasses. She told me I was lying and directed me to tell my brothers and sisters that I had taken the tape measure. Through my tears I listened to her as she explained that we would rehearse what should have happened. She would walk into the room and I would tell her I was sorry for taking the tape measure, that I had taken it to play with and that I would never do it again. She made me rehearse it at least a half-dozen times.
“It’s hard for someone to imagine, but I really can’t come up with a pleasant memory.”
Soon-Yi remembers an incident in which she was excluded from playing in a paddling pool with the younger children. She “maneuvered” her way in, Soon-Yi says, and when Lark got hurt, “maybe slipped or something,” Farrow rounded on her, yelling, “Look what you’ve done! You never listen! I should send you to an insane asylum!” As Soon-Yi puts it, “I was shaking. I was so scared I thought she was actually going to put me in an insane asylum — and I understood what it meant.”
“Mia used to write words on my arm, which was humiliating, so I’d always wear long-sleeved shirts. She would also tip me upside down, holding me by my feet, to get the blood to drain to my head. Because she thought — or she read it, God knows where she came up with the notion — that blood going to my head would make me smarter or something.”
27. Mia Farrow ‘s younger brother is in jail for sexual abuse.
The 67-year-old businessman, husband and father was indicted after two men accused him in 2012 of sexually abusing them between 2000 and 2008 when they were children. Prosecutors say Villers-Farrow began abusing one boy when he was 9 years old and the second when he was 8.
Villiers-Farrow made headlines in 1992 when he commented on the controversy surrounding sister Mia’s custody battle with Woody Allen, and Allen’s relationship with Farrow’s adopted daughter Soon-Yi. At the time, Villiers-Farrow told People magazine, Allen “is going to be indicted, and he’s going to be ruined. I think when all of it comes out, he’s going to go to jail.”
In his article, Hard questions for Ronan Farrow – An open letter, Robert Weide said: “What about the child victims of Mia’s brother, John Villers-Farrow, who is currently doing prison time for multiple counts of molestation against two young boys? I don’t remember you speaking out when Uncle John had part of his sentence suspended.”
28. Mia Farrow has multiplied the signs of trust to Kristine Groteke, responsible for the alleged sexual abuse of Dylan.
Kristine Groteke, Dylan’s nanny, was asked by Mia Farrow to never left Woody Allen alone with Dylan the day – August 4, 1992 – when the alleged abuse happened. But Groteke didn’t take care, could have lost Dylan’s track for around 15 to 20 minutes and the alleged sexual abuse occurred during this period.
Was Mia Farrow angry that her daughter has been sexually abused because Groteke didn’t do her work properly?
29. Mia Farrow has adopted too many children to take care about them and favored the biological ones.
Lark Previn became a drug addict and died from AIDS in poverty on Christmas day, Thaddeus and Tam killed themselves, Moses was abused, Soon-Yi was Mia Farrow’s scapegoat.
“I don’t think you can raise 11 (and soon she will have 13) children with sufficient love and care. Take it from one who’s lived through it-it can’t be done. Some of us got neglected, some got smothered.” – Soon-Yi Previn, Let’s Not Get Hysterical
According to nanny Monica Thompson, hired in 1985 when Dylan was just 2 months old, the household “was more like a foster home … with all these kids.” She testified that Mia Farrow favored her biological children, loading up the adopted ones with chores, and once slapped Moses across the face when she thought he’d lost a dog’s leash.
According to Soon-Yi, “There was a hierarchy — she didn’t try to hide it, and Fletcher was the star, the golden child. Mia always valued intelligence and also looks, blond hair and blue eyes.”
30. Mia Farrow’s adoptive daughter Lark Previn was arrested for theft, struggled with a drug problem and died in poverty from AIDS at age 35.
In 1973, Mia Farrow and André Previn adopted a little Vietnamese girl named Lark. Jane Read Martin, who for six years served as Allen’s personal assistant said Mia Farrow forced her adopted daughter Lark to baby-sit, cook and clean “like a little scullery maid” and schlep strollers and diaper bags “like a pack horse,” Martin recalled, to which, she said, Lark responded with resentful complaints and “an unpleasant hand gesture” when her mother left the room.
Lark reportedly struggled with a drug problem. She contracted AIDS and died on Christmas Day in 2008 at age 35, leaving Mia’s granddaughters, aged 12 and 13, born with the virus, without a mother and only a wayward father they hardly see.
31. Mia Farrow’s son, Thaddeus Wilk Farrow, died from suicide gunshot wound at 27.
On September 21, 2016, Connecticut law enforcement discovered Thaddeus Farrow inside his vehicle suffering from a life-threatening injury. He was transported to Danbury Hospital and pronounced dead at 2:30 p.m.
On Thursday 22,Connecticut authorities ruled the death a suicide, saying he shot himself in the torso. The state medical examiner’s office determined the cause of death after an autopsy.
32. Thaddeus Farrow full name was Thaddeus Wilk Farrow to thank Justice Wilk.
According to The New York Times, Justice Wilk who ruled the custody dispute in favor of Mia Farrow “was scathing about Mr. Allen’s relationship with one of Ms. Farrow’s adopted children, Soon-Yi Previn, who later became Mr. Allen’s wife. Ms. Farrow expressed her gratitude in 1995 by naming a child she adopted Gabriel Wilk Farrow.” Gabriel was later changed in Thaddeus.
33. Mia Farrow’s daughter, Tam Farrow, died from suicide at 21 after one final fight with her mother.
Most media sources claim my sister Tam died of “heart failure” at the age of 21. In fact, Tam struggled with depression for much of her life, a situation exacerbated by my mother refusing to get her help, insisting that Tam was just “moody.” One afternoon in 2000, after one final fight with Mia, which ended with my mother leaving the house, Tam committed suicide by overdosing on pills. My mother would tell others that the drug overdose was accidental, saying that Tam, who was blind, didn’t know which pills she was taking. But Tam had both an ironclad memory and sense of spatial recognition. And, of course, blindness didn’t impair her ability to count.
According to the same source, Woody Allen Net Worth is $80 Million.
36. Mia Farrow’s older brother, Patrick Farrow, committed suicide.
In June 2009, two days after Mia Farrow’s brother was found dead in his Vermont home, the coroner determined that Patrick Farrow died of a self-inflicted gunshot to the head.
Patrick Farrow, 66, a sculptor, was the older brother of Mia Farrow.
37. Nicholas Kristof who published Dylan Farrow’s open letter in The New York Times is Mia Farrow’s very close friend.
Nicholas Krystof, Mia Farrow’s close friend opened his blog in the NYT to Dylan Farrow’s open letter
On February 3, 2018, Nicholas Kristof has published a biased article in The New York Times where he has himself confirmed that he’s a friend of Mia and her family: “I’m a friend of Dylan and her family, so I’m not an unbiased observer.”
Of course, as Dylan Farrow as said that her brother is “dead” for her, Nicholas Kristof’s article didn’t mention Moses Farrow… Worst, the one time Kristof did it, it was to lie about Moses
38. Mia Farrow’s close friend, Nicholas Kristof, lied on Twitter about Moses Farrow.
Moses Farrow has confirmed the Yale report suggesting that his sister Dylan was coached by Mia Farrow to falsely accuse Woody Allen (see facts 25 and 26 and our post about Moses Farrow). People lying or manipulating the facts for Mia Farrow and Dylan Farrow, like Nicholas Kristof, are extremely embarrassed and always “forget” to mention Moses.
Eventually Nicholas Kristof has decided to post a huge lie on Twitter to try to discredit Moses:
Moses claims that Dylan Farrow testified against Woody Allen in 1993 because she was promised a Magic Attic Kids doll if she did. But those dolls didn’t exist then. They were launched more than a year later: https://t.co/K2qiZlY3IYhttps://t.co/YTM5v7dmmKhttps://t.co/UF6pEIsh0A
This is really silly, because everybody can immediately check that he’s lying, by checking the source:
“Around the time of the custody trial in 1993, a person who went often to the Farrow home found Dylan crying one day. The story has been confirmed with someone else who often visited. “Dylan asked me, ‘Is it okay to lie?’ She felt she didn’t want to lie and wondered, What would God think? She wanted an Attic Kids doll, but Mia forbade it. This was shortly before Dylan was to speak with someone connected with the trial. She said, ‘Mom wants me to say something I don’t want to say.’ Then the next week she had the Attic Kids doll with a yellow dress. I asked, ‘What happened?’ She said, ‘I did what my mom asked.’”
The story does not surprise Moses, who adds, “This, I can speak to with confidence. Mia’s ability and intent to mold her children to do her bidding was matched by her living in constant fear her secrets of abusive parenting would be divulged and the reputation she built as the loving mother of a large brood of adopted kids would be destroyed.”
So, it was NOT MOSES but A PERSON, not at the 1993 trial but around the time of the trial, not a testimony but to speak with somebody connected with the trial (journalist, sibling, friend…) so it could be after the trial, in 94 or 95.
But even there is all the evidences that her mother’s friend tweet was a despicable lie, Dylan Farrow didn’t hesitate to re-tweet it:
Nicholas Kristof is lying grossly about Moses Farrow
39. Since 1992, Maureen Orth is obediently reporting Mia Farrow’s words in Vanity Fair and is grossly lying about Woody Allen.
In November 1992, Vanity Fair publishes “Mia’s Story” by Maureen Orth: Mia Farrow, her friends and her family present Woody Allen as a child molester.
In October 2013, Vanity Fair publishes “Momma Mia” by Maureen Orth where, again, Woody Allen is presented as a child molester. The article try to discredit the Yale-Haven Hospital report asked by the Connecticut Police who exonerated Woody Allen and affirms that Woody Allen was in therapy for inappropriate behavior toward Dylan: “With a hiatus here and there, Woody Allen has famously been in therapy for most of his adult life for any number of neuroses. The idea that he was in therapy specifically for inappropriate feelings or conduct toward Dylan is a canard of the highest order, and no one has ever offered any evidence that this was the case.” (Q&A With Dylan Farrow by Robert Weide). Maureen Orth interviews also Dylan Farrow who for the first time as an adult affirms that Woody Allen sexually abused her in the attic.
In February 2014, Vanity Fair publishes “10 Undeniable Facts About The Woody Allen Sexual-Abuse Allegation” by Maureen Orth. In the 10th fact, Maureen Orth try to convince her readers that she’s an independent journalist: “I am not a longtime friend of Mia Farrow’s, and I did not make any deal with her.” As usual, she lies or manipulates the facts about Woody Allen being in therapy for inappropriate behavior toward Dylan (false), refusing to take a polygraph (false, it was Mia Farrow who refused, see 19.), the credibility of the Yale-Haven report, etc. The truth about the ten “Undeniable Facts” of Vanity Fair.
40. Mia Farrow used Twitter and her friends in the medias to resurrect Woody Allen sexual abuse allegation and to publish Dylan open letter then said she didn’t want Dylan to resurrect the allegation.
On October 23, 2013, Vanity Fair published a new Maureen Orth’s article Momma Mia, where the allegations of sexual abuse are widely discussed (and as always with Maureen Orth and Mia Farrow’s friends, incomplete and manipulated) and on October 26, 2013, Mia Farrow tweeted:
A sad day in journalism when damage to a child is ignored in favor of celebrity sensationalism. The truth: http://t.co/B0lDSuARRy
“I did not want to resurrect — it was a horrible chapter for all of us, but I also understood and respected that she needed to do that and she wanted to be part of the Me Too movement and have her voice heard.”
41. Mia Farrow found family pics by Googling ‘Mia Farrow & Her Black Children’
According to Observer, on January 20, 2015, Mia Farrow sent out a happy birthday wish to her daughter, Quincy Farrow, with a photo of the 21-year-old. The only issue: she forgot to crop it so that it didn’t have a search bar with the terms “mia farrow and her black children” up top:
Mia Farrow found family pics by Googling ‘Mia Farrow & Her Black Children’
She deleted the tweet shortly after and replaced it with a new one, search bar cropped out. Then, she posted another tweet explaining it was a friend or associate who found the photo by Googling “mia farrow and her black children,” and not Ms. Farrow herself.
42. Mia Farrow wanted to work in Woody Allen next movie even after she accused him to have sexually abused Dylan.
The day after she allegedly learned of her child’s molestation, Mia Farrow made a date with the costume designer of Allen’s next film (Manhattan Murder Mystery).
She accused me of child molestation on August 4th, right?” Allen told “60 Minutes” that November. “And August 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th — you know, the week after, she’s fully saying, ‘When do we begin our new movie? I’m going for my costume fitting next week’ . . . And I said, ‘Are you kidding? You’re accusing me of child molestation, and you think we’re just going to go on with the movie? . . . This is insane.’ ” (the video below begins directly with Woody Allen speaking about Mia Farrow still expecting to make a movie with him after she has accused him of child molestation):
The fact is confirmed by Kristi Groteke in her book, “Mia & Woody: Love and Betrayal” pg 225: “She had just accused her lover in public of molesting their daughter, and she expected that he would overlook this while they made a movie together. Get real, Mia.”
Eventually, Woody Allen told his lawyer to inform her that she has been replaced by an other actress (Diane Keaton).
43. Mia Farrow’s attorney, Eleanor Alter, doesn’t know if Woody Allen abused Dylan or if she fantasized.
Interviewed by Charlie Rose, in June 7, 1993, Eleanor Alter was Mia Farrow’s lawyer for the custody battle. It is not possible to find someone more predisposed to interpret the facts in favor of Mia Farrow. Still, she said she doesn’t know if Dylan Farrow was sexually abused by Woody Allen or if she fantasied due to Woody Allen’s behavior with Soon-Yi.
Charlie Rose: Let me jus tie up one point, there is no question in your mind that there was child abuse of Dylan?
Eleanor Alter: No, that’s not what I was saying. (…) Whether the ultimate things Dylan accuses him actually happened or whether of his behavior with her, or his behavior with his sister, some of which she witnessed, caused Dylan to fantasize, I don’t know
44. Mia Farrow agreed to the use of her in the Golden Globe montage but chose the ceremony to attack Woody Allen
In 2014, Woody Allen received the Cecil B. DeMille Award at Sunday’s Golden Globes.
The Globes presented a highlight reel of his films, including scenes and title cards from Annie Hall, Bullets Over Broadway, Manhattan, Stardust Memories, Vicky Cristina Barcelona, Midnight in Paris, Blue Jasmine and more.
Robert Weide was asked to work on the Allen clip montage for the Golden Globes. The montage editor, Nicholas Goodman, and him wanted to include a brief moment from The Purple Rose of Cairo, in which Mia Farrow appeared.
Mia agreed to the use of her “Purple Rose” clip in the Golden Globe montage. Then, during the televised ceremony, she tweeted:
A woman has publicly detailed Woody Allen’s molestation of her at age 7. GoldenGlobe tribute showed contempt for her & all abuse survivors
“I thought it was odd to say the Globe tribute showed contempt for abuse survivors when Mia willfully participated in the festivities by expressly agreeing to the use of her clip, when she had every opportunity to decline.”The Woody Allen Allegations: Not So Fast
45. At least 2 Mia Farrow’s biological children have slept with their mother until 7 and 11
‘Miss Farrow later confirmed this in an argument with me,’ Coates said. ‘She said she felt there was a cultural difference about whether it was okay for a child to sleep in the same bed with his mother, but that Fletcher had slept with her and he was fine.’
According to Woody Allen’s autobiography, “Apropos of nothing”:
From his birth, Mia expropriated Satchel. She took him into her bedroom, her bed, and insisted on bread-feeding him. She kept telling me she intended to to it for years, and that anthropological studies have shown positive results from tribes where breast-feeding goes on most longer than on the Upper West Side. Years later, two very professional and perceptive women who worked in Mia’s house, Sandy Boluch and Judy Hollister, the first as babysitter and the second as housekeeper, described numerous incidents. Sandy reports sometimes seeing Mia sleeping in the nude with Satchel (now Ronan) a number of times till he was eleven years old. I don’t know what the anthropologists would say about that, but I can imagine what the guys in the poolroom would say.
46. Mia Farrow also accused Woody Allen to have sexually abused Satchel (Ronan) and Moses
Satchel (Ronan) Farrow
Under examination by Allen’s attorney, Elkan Abramowitz, the demure blonde actress said she did not tell investigators looking into charges Allen had sexually molested their 7-year-old adopted daughter, Dylan, that she suspected he might have the same ‘inappropriate’ relationship with Satchel.
In a rare public appearance at a press conference Tuesday, Allen denied he had sexually molested his adopted daughter and son, Moses, and blamed the charges on a jealous Farrow, whom he accused of ‘ruthlessly manipulating innocent children for vindictive and self-serving purposes. ‘
Allen said the charge involving Moses has ‘quietly vanished’ because ‘its substance was too insane even for the instigators to stay with.’
47. Mia Farrow erased her adopted daughter Tam from family photo
In 2016, Farrow’s Twitter account posted a “Throwback Thursday” image showing her son Ronan shaking hands with Hillary Clinton, while daughter Dylan smiles at Clinton and Mia gazes adoringly on in the background. The shot appears to be around 25 years old.
In April 2021, just as she tweeted response to “vicious rumors” about the death of three of her children, she deleted the tweet. But a screenshot exists:
Mia Farrow’s Tweet with Tam Farrow erased from the picture
Tam, Mia’s disabled Vietnamese daughter who killed herself at 21 in 2000, also originally appeared in the shot, and has been digitally removed.
Tam Farrow, who killed herself when she was 21 years old, was erased from a picture with Hillary Clinton, Mia Farrow, Ronan Farrow, Dylan Farrow
A very close inspection reveals that it’s just about possible to see the outline of Tam’s face and parts of her dress in the edited picture.
Following this sickening exposition, someone posted the following tweet:
48. Mia Farrow used revenge porn against her daughter, Soon-Yi Previn
Soon-Yi is also a victim of sexual abuse. In a 2013 Vanity Fair article it appears that Mia Farrow distributed sexual photos of Soon-Yi as retaliation of her affair with Woody. In Mia’s own words, these photos were pornographic and yet she shared them with her children and with the press. It’s clear these photos were distributed with intend to humiliate Soon-Yi and they were distributed without Soon-Yi consent: that’s called revenge porn. It’s sexual abuse and many experts consider revenge porn sexual assault.
Also, keep in mind that Soon-Yi was surrounded by Mia’s older biological sons for her entire childhood: Fletcher, Sasha and Matthew. They would have gone through puberty around the same time she was it’s possible they sexualized her growing up, especially if they saw their mother didn’t respect her as a girl and a young woman.
When Mia distributed Soon-Yi’s photos to these sons, none of them stood up for Soon-Yi and even appear complicit in their mother’s crime. One of the sons, Matthiew, even gave photos to his girlfriend, Priscilla Gilman, who commented about the photos in the press, and made fun of Soon-YI, painting her as a dumb girl and a feral animal who would spit and scratch at people.
I need to ask a question which has been grating on me. Whatever happened to Lark Previn’s children after Mia took them away to her farmhouse? I can’t find anything on them on the internet.
Sorry to be late to publish your comment. Well, two or three years ago I had contact with one Lark’s daughter through Facebook but I can’t remember exactly what she said. If I’m correct they don’t have contact with the Farrow.
Can’t rule out a conspiracy between Mia and her friend to “get back” at Woody for his relationship with Soon-Yi.
Before going out that day with said friend, Mia told everyone in the house that day that Woody was a “monster” and should not be alone with Dylan.
So the questions to Mia should be, why leave the house AT ALL if you know the monster Woody Allen’s going to be there and within striking distance of Dylan. Why allow Allen in the house at all? Why not arrange for him to see and talk to the kids at a public location?
Then it just so happens that an employee of the friend Mia went out shopping with is the person who claims to see Allen acting very inappropriately with Dylan in the TV room. .. and later reports it to Mia’s friend, who then reports it to Mia.
However, there is a countervailing witness, Mia’s at the time 14-year-old adopted son. He says he dutifully picked up Mia’s charge and monitored Allen and Dylan. He says there was no inappropriate behavior in the TV room, and that Allen and Dylan were never alone together. Moreover, at the time he told all this to one of the nannies, which she later confirmed . . . Allen couldn’t have done anything especially in the attic because within a short time following the supposed event, Mia’s son had told her he was watching the two of them and they were never alone together.
So imagine the pressure the 14-year-old must have been under from Mia that he ended up going in front of reporters to publicly denounce Allen, knowing what he was accusing Allen never happened.
Mia and Woody went out for dinner that night after the alleged incident, possibly to attempt to hash out an agreement on visitation rights rather than have it decided by a judge, but this also could have been a test by Mia about the possibility of her being able to get back with Allen. At the time Allen was calling his relationship with Soon-Yi a mere fling.
Did Mia arrange this plot with her friends and then decide to give Allen one last chance to reconcile? If so, she was spurned a final time, and we know it was not Dylan who came crying to Mia about something Allen had done (apparently — and ridiculously as Allen points out — for the first time, because Dylan had been alone with Allen literally for years and never accused him of anything).
It was Mia who “confronted” Dylan (going by the original story) and started planting into her mind that Allen had done something to her (followed by the extensive coaching sessions witnessed by both the nanny and the son, and Mia even pulling Dylan from a police interview when Dylan was not saying the things Mia wanted her to say.)
Is it any wonder then that Allen was not ever charged with anything?
(BTW, Mia fully expected to do her already-agreed upon part in Allen’s next film . . . AFTER accusing him of child abuse! Consider for a moment how ridiculous (not to mention narcissistic) this was, and how little she really must have thought about inventing a story about Dylan to get back at Woody. Woody had to send a lawyer to disabuse her of this notion.)
Why has Dylan never brought civil suit against Allen, especially given that it’s the Mia/Dylan/Ronan side that keeps dragging all this up again and again and again . . .
In fact Dylan later marginally changed her story so that Allen would be guilty of a smaller offense, for which the statute of limitations had already passed compared to the 30-year statute for larger offenses. Was this Dylan’s or Mia’s idea? Mia and Dylan were getting a lot of flak over insisting this thing happened but strangely not doing anything about it, such as suing Allen for zillions of dollars.
Dylan changing her story so that she could not in the end challenge Allen in court ended up drawing even more scrutiny, not less.
Hi!
I want to thank you for this amazing web site.
I won’t lie to you, as for years I have believed Mr. Allen to be a child abuser and I didn’t want to hear otherwise. Then, I saw the HBO documentary. I had initially believed the doc but there was one thing that kept gnawing at me, and that was the fact that the woman who was 17 during her affair with Allen was NOT Stacey Nelken! Now, we know that Nelken has nothing but fond memories Allen, and she also doesn’t believe the allegations against him. Her appearance in that doc would have presented an uncomfortable truth that they wouldn’t be able to skip around, I suppose. The more I thought about it, the more it bothered me so I started looking and found this site. Wow! There are things here that I never knew-one of them being that Mia Farrow had told Nelken to tell the court that she was 15 as opposed to 17 when they dated! My God!
You know, back in the day the mainstream media was very critical and suspicious of Farrow back in the day. Back then, I thought it was sexism-and maybe there was a bit of that-but now I think that the media was a little more clearheaded then than it is today. You would think that the fact that Allen was exonerated twice would be enough, but when the culture wants to erase you they will do so no matter what-and I find that both maddening and heartbreaking for a man who gave us so much frankly.
Hello. Diane again.
When it comes to the Magic Attic Dolls. They came out in 1994. However, they were created as a cheap alternative to a doll called American Girl-which came out in 1986.
Perhaps this person talking about Dylan’s doll got the two mixed up.
It’s possible. In a website called The Doll Ranch where they compare the two dolls and they are quite similar.
I enjoyed this article, it was very informative with supporting evidence. There were quite I few grammatical errors that I feel may cause others to not take it seriously like the use of “him” when it should be her. I did see where you commented that English is not your first language so it is understandable. I watched the documentary and ended up shutting it off. I do not believe Mia and I do feel that she is bitter and enacting revenge. Her treatment of her adopted children is disgusting. I had heard of Woody Allen and thought he was a disgusting creep, until I happened upon the blog that Moses had written. I found Moses to be believable, he has nothing to gain. Watching Mia Farrow in the “documentary” came off as a C list actress giving a less than par performance. I do not find it believable that Woody was able to disappear with the child while being closely scrutinized by three other adults in the home. Morally he was wrong for carrying on a sexual relationship with his girlfriend’s child, but come on Mia it was decades ago. Every breathing moment she is still bad mouthing and carrying on. If this man was so inappropriate with this child, why did you continue dating him? Why continue conversations with him after he cheated with your daughter or the sexual abuse allegations of your other daughter. She has clearly failed as a mother. I do not condone victim blaming in any form. As far as this case I feel that the children are the victims. Why has she cut off all of her ethnic children? I think that is why her white children go along with everything she says. They were treated better, and are probably still financially dependent on her. Why have so many of her adopted children taken their own lives? This whole situation is terribly sad.
This article is not well written with all sorts of grammatical and spelling errors. Its a rambling of thoughts and opinions that are not well thought out or supported by any facts. This is a very complicated matter and nobody here is qualified to decide who is and who isn’t telling the truth. All I can say is that Dylan Farrow should be given the benefit of the doubt because she is the one that says she was abused. I have my own doubts that someone would “make up” this kind of story knowing how the general public treats women that admit to being abused. In addition, the simple fact that Woody Allen would have a relationship with Soon Yi, a girl that he had known since she was 10 years old and was a prominent adult figure in her life, says alot about his character. Plus, I recently became aware that Woody Allen was a friend of Jeffrey Epstein!! That seals the deal with me that he is a disgusting human being and there is no way I will ever spend my money to watch any of his films, no matter if he is guilty or not of abusing Dylan Farrow.
English is not WAML first language: you’re welcome to suggest some correction.
When you write “All I can say is that Dylan Farrow should be given the benefit of the doubt because she is the one that says she was abused.” we learn a lot about you: Dylan has been given the benefit of the doubt and her allegation has been investigated. Not one time, but two times. By two teams of experts on sexual abuse. For months. Two states: New York and Connecticut. Both found she wasn’t credible. Furthermore, as an adult, Dylan Farrow is multiplying new lies.
Liars slandering people with lies are the true disgusting human being.
You’re free to not spend your money to watch any of Woody Allen’s films: thanks for this, people who love Woody Allen will be delighted to learn they can enjoy his masterpieces being sure they won’t never be seated beside someone like you in a theater.
Check this out regarding how the current documentary and their “top team of investigators” are willing to let Mia Farrow lie on camera all the while knowing she is doing so . . . unless they didn’t do their job AT ALL. . . A pivotal point in the episode comes as Mia recounts finding Polaroid photos of her daughter Soon-Yi Previn in Woody’s apartment, across Central Park from her own. In the shots, Soon-Yi is naked. According to Mia’s revisionist history of the event, Soon-Yi, now 50, is not merely in the buff, but the subject of hard-core “pornography’’ — straight out of “Hustler.’’ The discovery of the kinky skin trove prompted Mia to hurry back to her apartment, shaking, she now says, to face her daughter. “Soon-Yi was home and I remember saying. ‘I found the pictures,’ ” Farrow “suddenly” remembers. “And she said, ‘What pictures?’ And I said, ‘The pictures Woody took.’ And she started crying and I started crying and I’m like, ‘No, no, it’s not your fault.’ And she was beside herself.” Sweet. And apparently untrue. When Mia, now 76, testified in court some 28 years ago, no one was crying. Instead, Mia testified, after she confronted Soon-Yi about the merely “nude’’ pictures, her daughter taunted her mother. “The person who is sleeping with [Woody] is the one with the relationship,’’ Mia bitterly remembered Soon-Yi saying. And then, Mia admitted on the stand that she punched and pummeled the young woman. “I’m not proud,’’ Mia testified coolly. In addition to this ugly — but honest — display of anger, I saw an exhibit in the courtroom that had me questioning Mia’s sanity. It was a photograph of Mia with her gigantic brood of biological and adopted children. Mia had plunged metal stakes into each person’s chest to show Woody how his actions with Soon-Yi had broken their hearts.
Tonight’s final episode of the HBO doc (I don’t have HBO so didn’t watch) portrays supposedly explosive evidence that Moses is either lying or incorrect about a train set. I don’t want to reproduce those paragraphs from the stories here because it would make this too long, but there are lots of articles after tonight’s episode people can read. It literally can’t be new evidence, as it was gathered within days of the allegation. If I’ve read other articles correctly, there is some suspicion that in their depiction of the “crime scene” the CN state police drew in a train set that wasn’t really there. The report said Dylan was followed into the attic by a detective thus demonstrating two people could fit in there. They’re claiming at the time Dylan told the detectives about three small pieces of a train that she could hold in her hands. There are also references to large train toys the smaller children could “ride”/sit on, which could have been in the attic (Moses) or in the downstairs area (which the Farrows are apparently now claiming in the doc). The documentary has been so full of deliberate lies and deliberate omissions I’m waiting for another shoe to drop. Maybe Moses will make a new statement. I’d also like to hear from Monica Thompson if she’s still alive (the makers of the documentary claim she changed her story several times so is unreliable, a convenient and possibly invented reason to not interview her. We have the other baby-sitter’s recollections in her published book, which the documentary also conveniently omits. I’m learning new things about this every week that tend to exonerate Allen, for instance I just read your thing tonight about how Moses told Thompson in 1992 he thought MIa had made up the allegations. The doc makers would not want her on television saying that, so again no interview. The doc makers were hit by so many complaints of making nothing more than blatant PR for Mia, they defensively challenged Woody to submit to an interview for a fifth installment knowing he will never do so. He would never give them “final cut” to wildly distort or omit things as they have obviously done. I would though like to see an objective presentation documentary of his side given there are so many exoneration witnesses and events providing so much reasonable doubt, which is the real reason Allen was never prosecuted. To me, the first two points in your Woody Allen page are all we really need to presume innocence. He could have been freely molesting Dylan all along, she never reported it. Not until Allen supposedly chose a houseful of people who hated him and were told to monitor his and Dylan’s every move to perpetrate the crime. You might even add a third point. They were in a custody dispute, so Allen did want custody of his children. Why would he endanger that by choosing to become a child molester right before the judge was about to rule? Additionally, if he is a child molester and thought he was going to end up with custody of Dylan and very soon have free access to her, again why would he endanger himself on the day in question. One thing your articles leave out is the Pascal nanny reporting to Pascal seeing Woody’s head in Dylan’s lap. She doesn’t report it until later that night, and Pascal reports it to both Mia Farrow and (according to the doc) Pascal also reports it to the police. Previous to this documentary I had read that Dylan volunteered the allegation to her mother unsolicited the next day (if she was so disturbed and frightened, why wait?), but now according to the doc the story changes to Mia Farrow confronts her daughter the next day. The documentary then uses an investigator to make an astoundingly biased toward Mia statement, that if there was any “coaching” it could only have been between Pascal informing Mia the night before and Mia confronting children the next day. This is an astounding lie, leaving out the coached videotape the doc itself uses to implicate Allen which as you mentioned was recorded over THREE DAYS, and obviously leaving out even more evidence of coaching as addressed by all the experts testifying in court. Given Dylan was only 7 and by all accounts prone to fantasy, only Mia Farrow knows how Dylan reacted when Mia confronted Dylan. Did Dylan deny it? Was she non-committal? Anyway, Moses takes over here in his blog stating that the event supposedly witnessed by Allison Stickland for a few brief moments (by her own admission) and reported to Pascal and then Mia, and whether or not Mia believed the lap thing happened, Mia immediately embarked on enlarging the story and ultimately moving the event to the attack. Reading your articles, I also did not know that adult Dylan changed her story so she could get away with and lie about not being able to charge Allen either criminally or civilly. Meaning adult Dylan has to know with the witnesses and everything, her end will not stand up in court, just like Maco knew there is enough reasonable doubt to sink a ship (thank you also for supplying the information about Maco’s suspension, etc, I was not aware of that either). Thank you for your work.
Woody Allen has long been one of my favorite filmmakers and continues to be so. But its not for this reason that I believe he’s innocent of the crime that the Farrows accuse him. Nothing points to his guilt save the hysterical reaction of a scorned woman. “Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned” is not a platitude. It’s real. I understand the rage, the shame etc. But this does not excuse her actions. The Farrow-Allen story – legend? – parallels the Greek tragedy Medea. This is parental alienation on steroids. It’s a sad story and I’m glad for this site. I most admire Moses for his integrity in standing his ground in the face of power of the Mother. He’s the Chiron of the story; the wounded healer with the in-sight.
Thank you for helping to provide and expose the truth. I am a long time supporter of Woody and have done a lot of research over the years on the allegations. I believe Woody and continue to feel disgust at the way he has been treated by the uninformed bias. I hope one day Mia pays for her lies and years of manipulations. Appreciate all the work you put in. Thank you again.
This is horribly written, long and boring and needs an editor. Just the format alone takes away from the credibility.
It’s a shame because there might be important truths in it but instead it sounds like a histrionic family member that can’t put the thoughts together in a coherent and digestible way.
Sorry, but Mia Farrow is CRAZY!! I turned off the doc on HBO about this situation bc you can just tell it’s lies!! So sad that her kids have paid the ultimate price due to her dwindling mental capacity.
Plenty of lies in here. But people believe anything! What are you Alan refused to take a polygraph test and less it was by someone he hired and chose. So that’s a bunch of bullshit.
Everything is correct for the polygraph : Allen never refused to take one because no one asked him to take one. He asked to Mia to take one, she refused.
Woody Allen hired Paul Minor from the FBI, because, you know, you can’t pass a polygraph test alone. Is it something you can understand? Mia Farrow was free to hire someone, too.
Plenty of lies? But you don’t point them out. So, you’ve zero credibility.
Sure, it’s not a surprise with people attacking Woody Allen!
It all joins in one familiar disorder: the covert form of NPD. This woman should possible best have been institutionalized a long time ago. For her own sake and that of others. https://www.healthline.com/health/covert-narcissist
Well, I knew this story and, however, thank you for writing everything so well in the hope to clarify this intricate situation who damaged Woody Allen’s reputation and the life of innocent kids. When I say innocent kids I’m thinking about Lark, Thaddeus and Tam died so young, but I’m thinking to Dylan and Moses too. Yes Dylan and Moses were abused and used by the most manipulative woman in the world:Mia Farrow! You wrote everything we got to know about her, so I spare a bit of time to say something about Woody Allen: this man is living with his wife SoonYi and his two daughter, he never had an affair with another woman, I think his marriage is about 20 years long, no one ever spotted him in questionable situations as too close to another woman, a strip tease club, driving drunk, smoking weeds, the same for his wife and his daughter! Being a family man I suppose the friends of his daughters come and go from his home, never gossip! What does he do in his free time? Music, baseball, books! Never a party with celebrities to fuel some gossip! If he wasn’t so brilliant and witty in his movies and in his speech surely he would deserve the award of the most boring celebrity of the world! Can be a man like this an abuser? If you say yes please, lock yourself in a clinic for mental disorders!
I need to ask a question which has been grating on me. Whatever happened to Lark Previn’s children after Mia took them away to her farmhouse? I can’t find anything on them on the internet.
Hello Diane,
Sorry to be late to publish your comment. Well, two or three years ago I had contact with one Lark’s daughter through Facebook but I can’t remember exactly what she said. If I’m correct they don’t have contact with the Farrow.
Thank you for getting back to me!
Wow, you actually had contact with one of the daughters!
They don’t deal with Farrow at all.
No surprise. She’s a terrible human being.
Can’t rule out a conspiracy between Mia and her friend to “get back” at Woody for his relationship with Soon-Yi.
Before going out that day with said friend, Mia told everyone in the house that day that Woody was a “monster” and should not be alone with Dylan.
So the questions to Mia should be, why leave the house AT ALL if you know the monster Woody Allen’s going to be there and within striking distance of Dylan. Why allow Allen in the house at all? Why not arrange for him to see and talk to the kids at a public location?
Then it just so happens that an employee of the friend Mia went out shopping with is the person who claims to see Allen acting very inappropriately with Dylan in the TV room. .. and later reports it to Mia’s friend, who then reports it to Mia.
However, there is a countervailing witness, Mia’s at the time 14-year-old adopted son. He says he dutifully picked up Mia’s charge and monitored Allen and Dylan. He says there was no inappropriate behavior in the TV room, and that Allen and Dylan were never alone together. Moreover, at the time he told all this to one of the nannies, which she later confirmed . . . Allen couldn’t have done anything especially in the attic because within a short time following the supposed event, Mia’s son had told her he was watching the two of them and they were never alone together.
So imagine the pressure the 14-year-old must have been under from Mia that he ended up going in front of reporters to publicly denounce Allen, knowing what he was accusing Allen never happened.
Mia and Woody went out for dinner that night after the alleged incident, possibly to attempt to hash out an agreement on visitation rights rather than have it decided by a judge, but this also could have been a test by Mia about the possibility of her being able to get back with Allen. At the time Allen was calling his relationship with Soon-Yi a mere fling.
Did Mia arrange this plot with her friends and then decide to give Allen one last chance to reconcile? If so, she was spurned a final time, and we know it was not Dylan who came crying to Mia about something Allen had done (apparently — and ridiculously as Allen points out — for the first time, because Dylan had been alone with Allen literally for years and never accused him of anything).
It was Mia who “confronted” Dylan (going by the original story) and started planting into her mind that Allen had done something to her (followed by the extensive coaching sessions witnessed by both the nanny and the son, and Mia even pulling Dylan from a police interview when Dylan was not saying the things Mia wanted her to say.)
Is it any wonder then that Allen was not ever charged with anything?
(BTW, Mia fully expected to do her already-agreed upon part in Allen’s next film . . . AFTER accusing him of child abuse! Consider for a moment how ridiculous (not to mention narcissistic) this was, and how little she really must have thought about inventing a story about Dylan to get back at Woody. Woody had to send a lawyer to disabuse her of this notion.)
Why has Dylan never brought civil suit against Allen, especially given that it’s the Mia/Dylan/Ronan side that keeps dragging all this up again and again and again . . .
In fact Dylan later marginally changed her story so that Allen would be guilty of a smaller offense, for which the statute of limitations had already passed compared to the 30-year statute for larger offenses. Was this Dylan’s or Mia’s idea? Mia and Dylan were getting a lot of flak over insisting this thing happened but strangely not doing anything about it, such as suing Allen for zillions of dollars.
Dylan changing her story so that she could not in the end challenge Allen in court ended up drawing even more scrutiny, not less.
Hi!
I want to thank you for this amazing web site.
I won’t lie to you, as for years I have believed Mr. Allen to be a child abuser and I didn’t want to hear otherwise. Then, I saw the HBO documentary. I had initially believed the doc but there was one thing that kept gnawing at me, and that was the fact that the woman who was 17 during her affair with Allen was NOT Stacey Nelken! Now, we know that Nelken has nothing but fond memories Allen, and she also doesn’t believe the allegations against him. Her appearance in that doc would have presented an uncomfortable truth that they wouldn’t be able to skip around, I suppose. The more I thought about it, the more it bothered me so I started looking and found this site. Wow! There are things here that I never knew-one of them being that Mia Farrow had told Nelken to tell the court that she was 15 as opposed to 17 when they dated! My God!
You know, back in the day the mainstream media was very critical and suspicious of Farrow back in the day. Back then, I thought it was sexism-and maybe there was a bit of that-but now I think that the media was a little more clearheaded then than it is today. You would think that the fact that Allen was exonerated twice would be enough, but when the culture wants to erase you they will do so no matter what-and I find that both maddening and heartbreaking for a man who gave us so much frankly.
Again, thank you.
Hello. Diane again.
When it comes to the Magic Attic Dolls. They came out in 1994. However, they were created as a cheap alternative to a doll called American Girl-which came out in 1986.
Perhaps this person talking about Dylan’s doll got the two mixed up.
It’s possible. In a website called The Doll Ranch where they compare the two dolls and they are quite similar.
I missed this. It’s very interesting. Thank you very much.
I enjoyed this article, it was very informative with supporting evidence. There were quite I few grammatical errors that I feel may cause others to not take it seriously like the use of “him” when it should be her. I did see where you commented that English is not your first language so it is understandable. I watched the documentary and ended up shutting it off. I do not believe Mia and I do feel that she is bitter and enacting revenge. Her treatment of her adopted children is disgusting. I had heard of Woody Allen and thought he was a disgusting creep, until I happened upon the blog that Moses had written. I found Moses to be believable, he has nothing to gain. Watching Mia Farrow in the “documentary” came off as a C list actress giving a less than par performance. I do not find it believable that Woody was able to disappear with the child while being closely scrutinized by three other adults in the home. Morally he was wrong for carrying on a sexual relationship with his girlfriend’s child, but come on Mia it was decades ago. Every breathing moment she is still bad mouthing and carrying on. If this man was so inappropriate with this child, why did you continue dating him? Why continue conversations with him after he cheated with your daughter or the sexual abuse allegations of your other daughter. She has clearly failed as a mother. I do not condone victim blaming in any form. As far as this case I feel that the children are the victims. Why has she cut off all of her ethnic children? I think that is why her white children go along with everything she says. They were treated better, and are probably still financially dependent on her. Why have so many of her adopted children taken their own lives? This whole situation is terribly sad.
Thank you for your comment. And I hope most – all? – “him” mistakes have been corrected.
This article is not well written with all sorts of grammatical and spelling errors. Its a rambling of thoughts and opinions that are not well thought out or supported by any facts. This is a very complicated matter and nobody here is qualified to decide who is and who isn’t telling the truth. All I can say is that Dylan Farrow should be given the benefit of the doubt because she is the one that says she was abused. I have my own doubts that someone would “make up” this kind of story knowing how the general public treats women that admit to being abused. In addition, the simple fact that Woody Allen would have a relationship with Soon Yi, a girl that he had known since she was 10 years old and was a prominent adult figure in her life, says alot about his character. Plus, I recently became aware that Woody Allen was a friend of Jeffrey Epstein!! That seals the deal with me that he is a disgusting human being and there is no way I will ever spend my money to watch any of his films, no matter if he is guilty or not of abusing Dylan Farrow.
Thank you for your comment.
English is not WAML first language: you’re welcome to suggest some correction.
When you write “All I can say is that Dylan Farrow should be given the benefit of the doubt because she is the one that says she was abused.” we learn a lot about you: Dylan has been given the benefit of the doubt and her allegation has been investigated. Not one time, but two times. By two teams of experts on sexual abuse. For months. Two states: New York and Connecticut. Both found she wasn’t credible. Furthermore, as an adult, Dylan Farrow is multiplying new lies.
Woody Allen wasn’t a prominent adult figure for Soon-Yi PREVIN when she was a child, as mentioned both by Soon-Yi, Justice Wilk (Supreme Court document) and Mia Farrow’s autobiography (What Falls Away): you’re just lying like all people supporting the Farrows’ lies.
Woody Allen wasn’t friend with Jeffrey Epstein: this is one more lie from you.
Liars slandering people with lies are the true disgusting human being.
You’re free to not spend your money to watch any of Woody Allen’s films: thanks for this, people who love Woody Allen will be delighted to learn they can enjoy his masterpieces being sure they won’t never be seated beside someone like you in a theater.
“All I can say is that Dylan Farrow should be given the benefit of the doubt because she is the one that says she was abused”
What about moses and soon-yi? They claim abuse as well. Are they the wrong color for you? Racism?
Woody was abused by mia as well. He was cucked. There is no greater abuse a woman can do to a man.
She also banged her best friends husband.
Whats the record for kids commiting suicide in one family? Yeah, she seems like a wonderful mother , not a sociopath at all.
Check this out regarding how the current documentary and their “top team of investigators” are willing to let Mia Farrow lie on camera all the while knowing she is doing so . . . unless they didn’t do their job AT ALL. . . A pivotal point in the episode comes as Mia recounts finding Polaroid photos of her daughter Soon-Yi Previn in Woody’s apartment, across Central Park from her own. In the shots, Soon-Yi is naked. According to Mia’s revisionist history of the event, Soon-Yi, now 50, is not merely in the buff, but the subject of hard-core “pornography’’ — straight out of “Hustler.’’ The discovery of the kinky skin trove prompted Mia to hurry back to her apartment, shaking, she now says, to face her daughter. “Soon-Yi was home and I remember saying. ‘I found the pictures,’ ” Farrow “suddenly” remembers. “And she said, ‘What pictures?’ And I said, ‘The pictures Woody took.’ And she started crying and I started crying and I’m like, ‘No, no, it’s not your fault.’ And she was beside herself.” Sweet. And apparently untrue. When Mia, now 76, testified in court some 28 years ago, no one was crying. Instead, Mia testified, after she confronted Soon-Yi about the merely “nude’’ pictures, her daughter taunted her mother. “The person who is sleeping with [Woody] is the one with the relationship,’’ Mia bitterly remembered Soon-Yi saying. And then, Mia admitted on the stand that she punched and pummeled the young woman. “I’m not proud,’’ Mia testified coolly. In addition to this ugly — but honest — display of anger, I saw an exhibit in the courtroom that had me questioning Mia’s sanity. It was a photograph of Mia with her gigantic brood of biological and adopted children. Mia had plunged metal stakes into each person’s chest to show Woody how his actions with Soon-Yi had broken their hearts.
Tonight’s final episode of the HBO doc (I don’t have HBO so didn’t watch) portrays supposedly explosive evidence that Moses is either lying or incorrect about a train set. I don’t want to reproduce those paragraphs from the stories here because it would make this too long, but there are lots of articles after tonight’s episode people can read. It literally can’t be new evidence, as it was gathered within days of the allegation. If I’ve read other articles correctly, there is some suspicion that in their depiction of the “crime scene” the CN state police drew in a train set that wasn’t really there. The report said Dylan was followed into the attic by a detective thus demonstrating two people could fit in there. They’re claiming at the time Dylan told the detectives about three small pieces of a train that she could hold in her hands. There are also references to large train toys the smaller children could “ride”/sit on, which could have been in the attic (Moses) or in the downstairs area (which the Farrows are apparently now claiming in the doc). The documentary has been so full of deliberate lies and deliberate omissions I’m waiting for another shoe to drop. Maybe Moses will make a new statement. I’d also like to hear from Monica Thompson if she’s still alive (the makers of the documentary claim she changed her story several times so is unreliable, a convenient and possibly invented reason to not interview her. We have the other baby-sitter’s recollections in her published book, which the documentary also conveniently omits. I’m learning new things about this every week that tend to exonerate Allen, for instance I just read your thing tonight about how Moses told Thompson in 1992 he thought MIa had made up the allegations. The doc makers would not want her on television saying that, so again no interview. The doc makers were hit by so many complaints of making nothing more than blatant PR for Mia, they defensively challenged Woody to submit to an interview for a fifth installment knowing he will never do so. He would never give them “final cut” to wildly distort or omit things as they have obviously done. I would though like to see an objective presentation documentary of his side given there are so many exoneration witnesses and events providing so much reasonable doubt, which is the real reason Allen was never prosecuted. To me, the first two points in your Woody Allen page are all we really need to presume innocence. He could have been freely molesting Dylan all along, she never reported it. Not until Allen supposedly chose a houseful of people who hated him and were told to monitor his and Dylan’s every move to perpetrate the crime. You might even add a third point. They were in a custody dispute, so Allen did want custody of his children. Why would he endanger that by choosing to become a child molester right before the judge was about to rule? Additionally, if he is a child molester and thought he was going to end up with custody of Dylan and very soon have free access to her, again why would he endanger himself on the day in question. One thing your articles leave out is the Pascal nanny reporting to Pascal seeing Woody’s head in Dylan’s lap. She doesn’t report it until later that night, and Pascal reports it to both Mia Farrow and (according to the doc) Pascal also reports it to the police. Previous to this documentary I had read that Dylan volunteered the allegation to her mother unsolicited the next day (if she was so disturbed and frightened, why wait?), but now according to the doc the story changes to Mia Farrow confronts her daughter the next day. The documentary then uses an investigator to make an astoundingly biased toward Mia statement, that if there was any “coaching” it could only have been between Pascal informing Mia the night before and Mia confronting children the next day. This is an astounding lie, leaving out the coached videotape the doc itself uses to implicate Allen which as you mentioned was recorded over THREE DAYS, and obviously leaving out even more evidence of coaching as addressed by all the experts testifying in court. Given Dylan was only 7 and by all accounts prone to fantasy, only Mia Farrow knows how Dylan reacted when Mia confronted Dylan. Did Dylan deny it? Was she non-committal? Anyway, Moses takes over here in his blog stating that the event supposedly witnessed by Allison Stickland for a few brief moments (by her own admission) and reported to Pascal and then Mia, and whether or not Mia believed the lap thing happened, Mia immediately embarked on enlarging the story and ultimately moving the event to the attack. Reading your articles, I also did not know that adult Dylan changed her story so she could get away with and lie about not being able to charge Allen either criminally or civilly. Meaning adult Dylan has to know with the witnesses and everything, her end will not stand up in court, just like Maco knew there is enough reasonable doubt to sink a ship (thank you also for supplying the information about Maco’s suspension, etc, I was not aware of that either). Thank you for your work.
Woody Allen has long been one of my favorite filmmakers and continues to be so. But its not for this reason that I believe he’s innocent of the crime that the Farrows accuse him. Nothing points to his guilt save the hysterical reaction of a scorned woman. “Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned” is not a platitude. It’s real. I understand the rage, the shame etc. But this does not excuse her actions. The Farrow-Allen story – legend? – parallels the Greek tragedy Medea. This is parental alienation on steroids. It’s a sad story and I’m glad for this site. I most admire Moses for his integrity in standing his ground in the face of power of the Mother. He’s the Chiron of the story; the wounded healer with the in-sight.
Thank you for your comment. We share your feelings for Moses Farrow: “I was present for everything that transpired in our house before, during, and after the alleged event.“
Thank you for helping to provide and expose the truth. I am a long time supporter of Woody and have done a lot of research over the years on the allegations. I believe Woody and continue to feel disgust at the way he has been treated by the uninformed bias. I hope one day Mia pays for her lies and years of manipulations. Appreciate all the work you put in. Thank you again.
Thank you so much for your comment and for believing that facts matter.
This is horribly written, long and boring and needs an editor. Just the format alone takes away from the credibility.

Plenty of lies in here. But people believe anything! What are you Alan refused to take a polygraph test and less it was by someone he hired and chose. So that’s a bunch of bullshit.
Everything is correct for the polygraph : Allen never refused to take one because no one asked him to take one. He asked to Mia to take one, she refused.
Woody Allen hired Paul Minor from the FBI, because, you know, you can’t pass a polygraph test alone. Is it something you can understand? Mia Farrow was free to hire someone, too.
Plenty of lies? But you don’t point them out. So, you’ve zero credibility.
