Actress Mira Sorvino penned an open letter Thursday apologizing to Dylan Farrow,My Young Master (2019) Korean movie daughter of filmmaker Woody Allen, for ignoring the sexual assault allegations Farrow made against her father and working with him in the '90s.
Sorvino worked with Allen on the 1995 film Mighty Aphrodite, a few years after Farrow (who was 7-years-old at the time) alleged that Allen has sexually assaulted her. Recently, Farrow has become more outspoken about Allen's alleged actions, calling out actors who have worked with him after the allegations went public.
Farrow's call to action prompted Sorvino to write an apology for working with Woody Allen, via The Huffington Post, saying that she now believes Farrow's accusations.
Sorvino wrote that, when she worked with Allen, she did not put much stake into Farrow's allegations, something that she now regrets and apologizes for.
I am so sorry, Dylan! I cannot begin to imagine how you have felt, all these years as you watched someone you called out as having hurt you as a child, a vulnerable little girl in his care, be lauded again and again, including by me and countless others in Hollywood who praised him and ignored you. As a mother and a woman, this breaks my heart for you. I am so, so sorry!
We are in a day and age when everything must be re-examined. This kind of abuse cannot be allowed to continue. If this means tearing down all the old gods, so be it. The cognitive dissonance, the denial and cowardice that spare us painful truths and prevent us from acting in defense of innocent victims while allowing “beloved” individuals to continue their heinous behavior must be jettisoned from the bottom of our souls. Even if you love someone, if you learn they may have committed these despicable acts, they must be exposed and condemned, and this exposure must have consequences. I will never work with him again.
Shortly after Sorvino's letter was published, Farrow gave her a heartfelt thank you on Twitter.

Sorvino's open letter comes about a day after Lady Birdwriter and director Greta Gerwig wrote a similar statement in which she expressed regret for working with Allen on the 2012 film To Rome with Love. Farrow thanked Gerwig as well.

There are still many people who have worked with Allen in recent years who have not spoken publicly about Allen, despite the recent wave of support for women and men in Hollywood coming forward against men with allegations of sexual harassment and misconduct.
