I guess I lost interest in Woody Allen when he got involved with Soon Li. I just couldn't wrap my head around that. So I admit to not knowing much about Dylan's case.

But. Why would she continue to insist that he molested her, if he did not? If she was cajoled into it by Mia, a long time ago, by now, she'd have fessed up.

What little I've read of her reminds me of a survivor.

And, he's overrated as a director. He has a few truly magnificent gems, but he's also done a lot of narcissistic crap that focus exclusively on his hang-ups, especially, ahem, towards women.

In so many of his films, when he plays the lead, he comes off as a whiny little turd. Psychological studies of his own personality are not only not very interesting to me, but are the kind of self indulgence I'd expect from someone who has intimate relations with his family members.
