"Happy Valley" doc debuts @sundancefest, exploring the sick PSU football culture that enabled serial child-rape. http://bit.ly/1mutyky


Anyone with a Twitter account want to ask him when the movie is coming out about the sick Hollywood culture than enables a child molester? A child molester who's work he loves and Hollywood continues to honor.

If Dan would block someone because of that he's every bit as bad as the people he rails on at PSU.

This makes me want to sign up for Twitter and tweet this to Danny to see if he blocks me. HE.WAS.NEVER.CHARGED.WITH.A.CRIME.

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. He talked to me while he did it, whispering that I was a good girl, that this was our secret, promising that we’d go to Paris and I’d be a star in his movies. I remember staring at that toy train, focusing on it as it traveled in its circle around the attic. To this day, I find it difficult to look at toy trains....

After a custody hearing denied my father visitation rights, my mother declined to pursue criminal charges, despite findings of probable cause by the State of Connecticut – due to, in the words of the prosecutor, the fragility of the “child victim.” Woody Allen was never convicted of any crime. That he got away with what he did to me haunted me as I grew up

Is Dylan a man or woman? According to this article,it's a female.
EDIT: Sorry,I thought Dylan was that Sinatra-looking son.

http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/d ... ter-676346

Hollywood and the media reacted to allegations Farrow shared in The New York Times, where she wrote Woody Allen "sexually assaulted" her as a child.

Dylan Farrow made disturbing allegations against Woody Allen Saturday, claiming the director "sexually assaulted" her when she was seven.


Farrow, the adopted daughter of Allen and Mia Farrow, published a first-hand account of the alleged abuse in an open letter posted on New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristof's blog.
On Twitter, members of the entertainment industry and news media expressed support for Farrow, with some saying they could no longer separate their appreciation of Allen's films from the allegations about his personal life.
EARLIER: Dylan Farrow Pens Open Letter, Alleges Woody Allen 'Sexually Assaulted' Her at Age 7
Girls star Lena Dunham urged her Twitter followers to read the piece, tweeting "To share in this way is courageous, powerful and generous. Please read."
Actor Adam Baldwin tweeted the allegations against Allen should surprise no one, while ESPN's Jane McManus, wrote "Choose your heroes carefully and be willing to let them go. The National Journal's Bruce Arthur tweeted "You will never look at Woody Allen the same way. And you shouldn't," and novelist Sarah Dessen wrote the essay gave her "chills" and called Farrow "so freaking brave" for penning it.
Comedy writer Jenny Johnson shared a link to the letter, tweeting "Maybe this will help other victims and convince Hollywood to stop kissing Woody Allen's ass," while The Wall Street Journal's Tom Gara tweeted simply "The end of Woody Allen."
Jack Moore, one of the writers behind the popular SeinfeldToday parody Twitter account, questioned how people disgusted by Jerry Sandusky's actions at Penn State could still support Allen. "Woody Allen is a genius, who I’ve idolized my entire life," he tweeted. "But to value his art over the well-being of an abused person is unconscionable."
STORY: Diane Keaton Accepts Woody Allen's Cecil B. DeMille Award
In her open letter, Farrow described he abuse: "[W]hen 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."
Allen has never been legally convicted of a crime related to the abuse allegations.
The allegations come as Allen's latest film, Blue Jasmine, is nominated for three Academy Awards, including best original screenplay for the director. Farrow called out Blue Jasmine stars Alec Baldwin, Cate Blanchett, and Louis C.K. in the letter, asking "What if it had been your child"?
Neither Baldwin nor C.K. have addressed the letter on Twitter. Blanchett does not have a Twitter account.
On Jan. 12, Ronan Farrow, the son of Allen and Mia Farrow, referenced the alleged abuse on Twitter after Diane Keaton accepted Allen's Golden Globes honor: "Missed the Woody Allen tribute -- did they put the part where a woman publicly confirmed he molested her at age 7 before or after Annie Hall?"
Allen and Mia Farrow ended their relationship in 1992, when allegations of the abuse surfaced. The director soon married Soon-Yi Previn, also Farrow's adopted daughter.

Not covering up for Woody (Not a fan of his movies) or Roman or anyone else that committed such a crime, but these are individual cases or 1 person doing something bad one time (That we know about). The law knows about each case and nobody is stopping the law from working.

In the Penn St and Church cases, the law was absent and the organizations almost as written policy have tried to cover up multiple instances of illegal activity.

is it worse that someone rob and killed someone in a random stickup or went on a 20 year serial murdering rampage? The are both terrible, but I can only guess if you chose to stop 1, it would be the bigger impact of the 2

They were talking about whether or not you can separate the artist from the art, and to his credit Danny said he simply can't enjoy Woody Allen films like he used to and that what he's done makes it hard to enjoy his films anymore.

He did, but then he began equivocating about what an important artist he is and how he still listens to Michael Jackson. Why can't he allow others to feel the same way about Paterno and Penn State football?

Seems strange that he despises Mel Gibson but can't not watch Road Warrior (nor Terry). Yet you watch PSU football... Whatever.

That's what I thought as well. I was going to text in and ask why he can't understand how people may still appreciate Paterno the coach (or Sandusky the defensive coordinator) and still hate them for what they did. Again, why does Pennsylvania need to be blown up but not Hollywood? Maybe I'll call in on Thursday at 5:00.
