December 2018 On one summer’s day several years back, my mother and her mother took to a heated debate about Woody Allen. We were sitting on the porch of a cottage at Keuka Lake, affectionately called “the barn” since it was originally a run-down barn. My mother’s side of the family has had it in their possession for over 60 years, and visiting for at least a week has become a summer tradition. My grandmother believed that the allegations against Allen held no merit, while my mother insisted that he was guilty. She cited his marriage to Soon-Yi Previn, the daughter of Mia Farrow, as a questionable choice. Admittedly, taking nude Polaroids of your wife’s adoptive daughter is not a good look, even though it was consensual and Previn was 21 at the time. My grandmother responded by saying she thought he was looking for something simple, and it’s certainly clear what Allen had with Farrow wasn’t simple.
