Actors Wallace Shawn and Gina Gershon came to Woody Allen’s defense this week

Despite repeating the accusations publicly over the next three decades, Mia, Dylan, and Dylan’s brother Ronan Farrow were largely ignored until Hollywood’s Me Too reckoning. In recent years, many actors have publicly supported Dylan and pledged not to work with Allen anymore, and his forthcoming movie A Rainy Day in New York was pulled from Amazon.
Shawn continued his defense in an interview with Gershon on WGN9 in which he said, “I feel that Woody Allen is an innocent man, and it’s an injustice that we’re even talking about this.” He continued: Shawn added that everyone “has their strange personal life,” which is one way to describe initiating a relationship with your girlfriend’s 21-year-old-daughter.
