As more celebrities who've worked with Woody Allen express regret for having done so and the #MeToo continues to encourage others to believe accusers of sexual predators, Dylan Farrow, the adopted daughter of Mia Farrow and Allen, who said that he molested her in 1992, gave her first-ever television interview to tell her side of the story.

I want to show my face and tell my story. I want to speak out, literally," Farrow told Gayle King on CBS This Morning about her decision to make a TV appearance, according to The New York Times.

Allen has long disputed Farrow's report that she was lured to an attic crawlspace by Allen when she was 7 years old, and big Hollywood stars chose to believe him and continued to work with him even after Farrow penned a letter to the Times in 2014 detailing the abuse

Since the post-Harvey Weinstein reckoning for sexual predators, Farrow has called out those who continue to work with Allen, who preferred to believe that her mother, Mia Farrow, had brainwashed and coached her rather than that the beloved director is a predator.
