Mia Farrow fears that HBO’s “Allen v. Farrow “can put Woody Allen” on the attack again “.
“I’m just scared. I’m afraid of him, of a person who has no allegiance to the truth, he will do anything, ”says Farrow in the final episode of“ Allen v. Farrow ”, which opens this Sunday. “A person who will do anything is someone to fear. So, I worry that when this documentary is released, it will be on the attack again. He’ll do whatever it takes to try to save himself, you know, from the truths, from the mess he made.
“If I could go back, I would. I wish I never met him, of course, ”she adds. “It’s my biggest regret in my life, bringing someone like that – he should never have been in the family.”
The four-part documentaries directed by Kirby Dick and Amy Ziering – the two filmmakers behind “On the Record”, the HBO Max documentary that examines the sexual assault charges against Russell Simmons – bring together court documents, interviews and filming by Mia Farrow, including tapes on which her daughter Dylan Farrow, then 7, says she was sexually abused by Allen. In addition, he reviews Dylan’s account, both as a child and now as an adult, and the custody battle between his parents.
