    Anybody that has ever been in a custody fight (I haven't) will be open to the possibility that the b**** is framing him.

    I'll ask Diane Keaton when I talk to her on Thursday- like I said, I'm sure that would go over well. :rolleyes:

    I am assuming, based on your signature, that you accept Dwight Howard's questionable morals? And you're honestly saying all 42 movies sucked? Highly doubt you have seen more than maybe 5 of them.

    I think you're taking this ish too personally. Unless you're Woody Allen, in which case it's okay to take it personally. I don't think I'm having things both ways. I said exactly what I meant -- I don't know, but I'm proceeding on an assumption of guilt. It shouldn't matter too much to Woody Allen, since my opinion carries no weight. Does it suck for people to assume you're a child molester when you're not? Yeah, probably. It also sucks when you tell people you were molested as a child and they fall over themselves to explain why you're lying or wrong. Everyone that knows of the story will have an opinion one way or the other, and one party is going to be wronged as a result. To completely withold judgement is de facto siding with Woody Allen and the boon to child molesters everywhere -- maintain plausible deniability and your friends will give you the benefit of the doubt. If I was sitting in a jury, or if my daughter was engaged to him, I'd want better information to make a judgement. I know I don't know enough right now to decide. But, really the only thing I have to decide is whether I'm going to watch his movie or not. I'll leave the presumption of innocence to the courts and go with what seems to me the likeliest.

    I'm with dandorotik, mainly because he's one of my favorite directors, writers, playwrites of all time. And there is enough doubt cast the other way to make me feel comfortable to still back him.

    Of course I take it personally- I'm studying to be a screenwriter and he's the most award-winning screenwriter in American cinema. But not so much that if he was found guilty, I wouldn't cease to follow his work. There are a lot of individuals I like that have been accused of illegal acts or immoral acts- Led Zeppelin, Tennessee Williams, Elia Kazan, etc. The works, to me, stand apart- mainly because (1) I don't know in many cases whether the alleged acts happened, and (2) there are others involved with the work that have not been accused of a crime. When I'm watching Crimes and Misdemeanors, I'm not watching it for Woody Allen alone, I'm watching it because of Martin Landau, Alan Alda, and yes, Mia Farrow. When I'm listening to Stairway to Heaven, it's not just about band members who slept with very young, underage girls, but about the other band members as well who didn't do this. And if I'm reading Naked Lunch, I'm reading about the characters and ideas even though the author killed his wife (although he claims accidentally).

    The f**ked up thing now is that- can I watch any of those 80s films that had both Farrow and Allen? Zelig, Purple Rose of Cairo, and Crimes & Misdemeanors are among my favorites. Either way, I'm supporting someone who committed a terrible crime. And what about Rosemary's Baby- that's starring Farrow and directed by Polanski- ugh. Why can't these people just be ******** normal?????

    Ridiculous, but if you're so fond of ridiculous statements:

    Only a child molester would defend another child molester.

    I wish there was such a thing as actual mind readers so we can get past all the bulls++t liars who use a situation like this to their advantage when they are actually lying. In ancient times, they just stoned the whole party. ;)

    Woody Allen has had back to back hits with Midnight in Paris and Blue Jasmine. He is only getting better with age.

    Woody? Dylan? Mia? I don't know. I want to know who I'm referring to.

    The mudslingers. The pinheads. The jerkoffasaurs.

    One story requires around a dozen people to be dishonest (Mia, Dylan, Ronan, State Attorney Maco, etc..). The other story requires just Allen to be dishonest.

    I also just find it weird that a family would feign outrage at their husband/father for their entire life. What do all of them gain by smearing Allen?

    Let's face it- you are going to want to find everything you can to support your belief that he did it, and I would look at anything I could find to prove that the allegations aren't true. Because you don't like him and liberals in general, and I like his work. Let's at least be honest here.
