Last night’s Golden Globe Awards managed to spark some major controversy due to a Woody Allen tribute that some feel is a slap in the face to abuse survivors.
The famed director/actor/writer was accused of molesting a 7-year-old child 20 years ago. That young girl’s name was Dylan – though she has since changed it – and she was Woody Allen’s adopted daughter who has gone on record with accusations that he abused her.
Woody Allen’s alleged son Ronan Farrow – who might actually be Frank Sinatra’s son according to Ronan’s mom – denounced the Hollywood Foreign Press’ need to acknowledge Woody’s lifetime of achievement with the Cecil B. DeMille Award. His mom, iconic actress Mia Farrow, joined in via Twitter.
Amongst a couple of articles where quotes concerning the molestation accusations appear, Mia also tweeted:
A woman has publicly detailed Woody Allen’s molestation of her at age 7. GoldenGlobe tribute showed contempt for her & all abuse survivors

Her son Ronan tweeted of his alleged estranged father:
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?

Oh, and right when Woody Allen’s award was presented – which he declined to show up for, leaving his longtime muse Diane Keaton to accept on his behalf – Mia tweeted:
Time to grab some icecream & switch over to #GIRLS
