An Open Letter From Dylan Farrow. "What’s your favorite Woody Allen movie? Before you answer, you should know: when I was seven years old, Woody Allen took me by the hand and led me into a dim, closet-like attic on the second floor of our house. He told me to lay on my stomach and play with my brother’s electric train set. Then he sexually assaulted me."

Didn't we just have this discussion two weeks ago? This particular article wasn't the link in the FPP, but it was covered pretty extensively, and it seemed like everyone who had something to say on the subject has already said it.

It's the first time Dylan Farrow has publicly said anything about the allegations, which is kind of a big deal as these things go.

Also, that Daily Beast article does so much super-defensive hair-splitting over Allen and Mia Farrow's relationship (In the 12 years they were sleeping together he never once stayed the night at her place, so there's no way her kids would look at him as a father figure!) that it's very hard to take any of the substantive parts seriously.
