In TV interview, Woody Allen’s daughter describes alleged assault

NEW YORK — In her first televised interview, Dylan Farrow describes in detail Woody Allen’s alleged sexual assault of her, and calls actors who work in Woody Allen films “complicit” in perpetuating a “culture of silence.”

Farrow, the adopted daughter of Allen and Mia Farrow, appears in a taped interview Thursday on “CBS This Morning.” Farrow recounts the 1992 incident, when she was 7 years old, in which she says Allen molested her in her mother’s Connecticut home.

Allen was investigated but wasn’t charged, and he has long denied having inappropriately touched Farrow. In a statement Thursday, Allen reiterates his denial and says “the Farrow family is cynically using the opportunity afforded by the Time’s Up movement to repeat this discredited allegation.”

Farrow calls Allen’s version of events — that a distraught Mia Farrow coached her story — “crazy.”
