So Judd Apatow has attacked Woody Allen, not accusing him of molesting Dylan Farrow but for ignoring Mia Farrow's other children during the time he was with her. And then for sleeping with Soon-yi.
Soon-yi is now a 47-year-old millionaire with a masters degree from Columbia. If she was a victim, she can say so herself. She and Allen have been together over 20 years, longer than all of Mia Farrow's marriages combined, so it turned out well in any case.
Allen ignoring Farrow's children during the years they were together always bothered me, but it's nothing to boycott him over, especially since it was 25 years ago. I don't think Woody Allen ever struck me as an especially nice guy. But it raises more doubts about Mia Farrow. If she was such devoted mother, what was she doing with a guy who had no interest in her children?
Apatow himself is a devout Zionist, one of the writers for the explicitly racist Don't Mess with the Zohan. I'd boycott him just for that.
