Allen
vs. Farrow is a four-part docu-series which exposes the mystery surrounding the
controversial life of Woody Allen. From pedophilic accusations to allegations
of sexual assault – the docu-series attempts to piece together and stitch out
his truth.


Directors Kirby Dick and Amy Zeiring have examined all the court
documents, interviews, and footages acquired from the home of Mia Farrow. This
includes the tapes of her daughter Dylan Farrow – who was seven at the time –
as she recounts her experience of sexual assault at the hands of Allen.




The
directors previously worked on the HBO Max documentary “On the Record”, which
reviews the sexual assault allegations against Russell Simmons. The duo has
come together once again to investigate another high profile case. The docu-series
attempts to examine all the accusations Dylan has made against Woody Allen – both,
as a child and adult. It also highlights the custody battle that got a bit
vicious at one point.


Several
revelations have been made in this latest documentary. It covers the scandal
that sparked in 1992, where Woody Allen was accused of sexually abusing his
7-year-old daughter with Mia Farrow – an allegation he has continuously denied.
Allen was not just accused of sexual abuse but also of inappropriate touching –
the daughter it now 35 years old.


The
case has been overly exhausted in the last 30 years. But what is interesting
about this documentary is that the filmmakers have gotten access to 60 boxes of
files that previously only knew the compounds of the lawyer’s office. In
addition, the documentary covers an extensive footage by Mia Farrow as she
shoots Dylan recalling her experience of sexual abuse.


All
set to premier on Sunday at 9 PM, the docu-series also takes in Allen’s stance.
His perspective has been shared through his audiobook narration of the 2020
memoir “Apropos of Nothing”.


Dylan
is overwhelmed with fear, but she’s also exhausted and wants to set the record
straight. In the opening sequence of the first episode, she says, “No matter what you think you know, it’s just
the tip of the iceberg.”


Mia
Farrow, who is now 76, says that the greatest mistake of her life was her
relationship with Woody Allen. She feels responsible for bringing the man into
her family and putting her daughter in a vulnerable position.


Mia
found out about the assault on 5th August, 1992 and was shocked to
her core upon discovering that it was all done at the attic OF Farrow’s
Connecticut home. At the beginning of that year, the Farrow family was already
shocked to discover that Allen was having an affair with her his adopted
daughter, Soon-Yi Previn, who was a college freshman at the time. The couple
eventually married in 1997.


Look
– Woody Allen may be an idolized filmmaker but he’s led a fairly controversial
life. His life choices are unconventional, to put it decently. The man has
conducted himself in the most bizarre and unfathomable fashion. So, it’s
strange and appalling to find so many people still supporting and defending him – even if it’s just a fraction. Check out what Woody
Allen fans have to say about the HBO Max documentary.
