Dylan Farrow talks about Woody Allen abuse for first time on TV
我要评论The #MeToo moment finally appears to be closing in on Woody Allen — and it's about damn time.
On Thursday, Jan. 18, his adoptive daughter Dylan Farrow will finally get the chance she deserved years ago, to talk about her accusation of sexual abuse in her first ever televised interview.
SEE ALSO:Dylan Farrow slams stars supporting Time's Up, but working with Woody Allen“I am credible, and I am telling the truth, and I think it’s important that people realize that one victim, one accuser, matters. And that they are enough to change things,” the press release quotes Farrow as telling CBS This Morningco-host Gayle King.
Allen has long-since denied the accusation that he molested seven-year-old Farrow in 1992, as detailed in a Vanity Fairarticle. Four years ago, that same reporter wrote a follow-up article revisiting the accusations, aftermath and Mia Farrow's life as a mother.

The piece received so much backlash that Dylan felt compelled to pen an open letter in The New York Times imploring the entertainment industry to hold her father accountable. That too was met with doubt, silence, wilful ignorance, and even contempt.
But perhaps now the world is finally ready to listen to her story.
The alleged incident occurred after Allen was already going to therapy for inappropriate behavior toward Dylan, and shortly after Allen's affair with his other adoptive daughter, 20-year-old Soon-Yi Previn, came to light.
Dylan's brother, Ronan Farrow, has been at the forefront of the groundbreaking journalism around sexual predators in Hollywood. The two continue to be important, unrelenting voices calling on the industry to end its complicit behavior toward their father.
Stars (some of them even Time's Up supporters) like Kate Winslet, Greta Gerwig, Justin Timberlake, and Alec Baldwin were hesitant to disavow him. Gerwig, at least, changed her position. Others, like Ellen Page, Griffin Newman, Rebecca Hall and Timothée Chalamet expressed their regret at having worked with Allen, some even pledging their profits from his films to organizations fighting sexual assault.
You can catch previews of Dylan's interview on Jan. 17, with the full broadcast airing the next day at 7-9 am EST.
