In January 1992, Mia Farrow discovered that her partner, Woody Allen was having an affair with her daughter, Soon-Yi Previn. Partners for almost 13 years, Woody and Mia were one of Hollywood's 'IT' couples. Woody's affair with Soon-Yi would make international headlines and shock the world.

The age of consent in New York is 17.
In the final episodes we will discuss more about Soon-Yi's claims that Mia was "abusive" and we will also hear what Moses Farrow has to say in addition to Dylan and others. This story is like "peeling back an onion". I hope you find this series insightful, informative and thought-provoking.

Oh my, we're getting a part 4😮 thank you so much for talking about this.
Maybe you can do other series about dysfunctional families like The Phillips one (someone mentioned it in another comment). It's truly horrifying what Mackenzie went through.
Yes keep it coming!! You are doing a great job with this whole thing. ❤❤❤
I think it's important to note that Moses recanted when Woody started financially supporting him, which is what Ronan Farrow asserts.
thank you for another wonderful video. all of this breaks my heart. his voice sounds creepy.. i think the child was looking for something stable which i dont think she got with her mother. when they say she wasnt close to woody its their excuse of being able to be lovers without being held accountable for their relationship before their sexual relationship.
Be, could you do a commentary on Joaquin Phoenix. So misunderstood.
I notice a thing with Woody. He will put people through emotional distress and then point the fingers at them for being insane and never take accountability for contributing to their downfall. What a sick man. Mia is messed up too but I always hate how Woody acts like the victim.
A Classic narcissist! He feels nothing - he needs others to feel feelings for him. He just observes. I find it very disturbing + cruel.
You are correct..noone of them apart from Suni..were innocent...I'm sure it's this channel that featured another actress who was groomed by Woody by age 13 or 16 cant remember ..but Woody was 40..anyway this actress was with Woody and when he got with Mia, the 3of them wld hv 3somes..actress says she saw them as parental figures..them in the 40's she in teens...Woody is a peado period! Mia took part in violating other young girls..it stings now coz its her daughter...also did Mia porch her first husband from her best friend..some singer????
At 49:20 something, I recognise a Swedish tv-host interviewing Mia, and there are Swedish subtitles on the screen. 🙂
@@annajohansson7116yep på tv 4
Gaslighting her
It amazes me that to this day there are people out there defending this man without an ounce of shame. The interviews he talks about the subject, like "how dare Mia act out of her normal after finding out that i, the man who has been her life partner for 12 years, groomed her daughter? How dare her freak out about nude photos i taken of her 19 year old daughter?" this man is disgusting, he should be in jail and his victim, treatment.
He was in his 50s during those photos too 🤢
Have you watched the videos defending Woody? Soon Yi Previn is Andre Previn's daughter. Mia broke up a marriage. Betty Previn was a singer. She wrote an album in the 1970s about a girl being molested in an attic while playing with a toy train. Other CZcamsrs have uploaded the clip with lyrics. Mia has changed her own story over the years. It amazes me you guys take testimony as if its fact.
@@paulstevens6043 its a fact that he was with a 19 year old girl being in his 50's. So this "relationship" is valid because other people where problematic? Come on.
@@looseflyingtoughts No. There is nothing wrong with age difference. And this practice of stripping away all the complexities and only hearing one side in these 'documentaries' has to stop. Mia is lying about Dylan Farrow. The girl is brainwashed. It's so jarring listening Slate Culture Gabfest say flatly that there is no denying she is telling the truth. Or watching Gayle King not ask a single challenging question. The evidence shows that the girl was coached and the abuse never took place. Mia is a bitter ex. She's changed her story several times. She alleged Woody molested Ronan Farrow! Is that in the "documentary". You guys are off the rails with these videos and New Yorker articles and on and on.
@@looseflyingtoughts Its the same age difference between Mia Farrow met Frank Sinatra! I didn't even remember that.
Him describing Soon Yi as a teenager as, "full of latent potential" and " ready to ripen" is so disgusting, telling, and bald. What an absolute creep.
They've been happily married for many years now - what is your problem? Soon yi is a middle aged woman now and they are still together. Get a grip.

I see woody as a real manipulator, someone who abuses then flips the story and blames the victim. My heart goes out to Mia.
My heart goes out to the groomed daughter.
Mia was said to not be the best mother and would talk down to her daughter
I don’t know about Mia. She broke up a marriage too. And it sounds like she may have been neglectful or abusive. No one knows what really happened except for the ones who lived it and they are telling different stories. Their story seems to have 4 sides. Woodys side, Mia’s side, the daughters side and somewhere in the middle of it the truth. I feel bad for the daughter. She had a rough start and ended up with an eccentric mother and a groomer.
@@victoriaskully "said to be" by whom? That looks to me like just the way abusive manipulators work. Mia is allowed to not be perfect.
@@notaclue822 did you listen to the documentary did we hear the same stuff. We're you even paying attention. Of the shit she would tell her daughter and the abuse
Watching again today and I still can't believe he justified that relationship 😱
Thanks for watching!
Watching this today, yesterday, tomorrow and everytime this has beeen brought up since this situation happen, it's incredible how he still had a career and was never put behind bars.
She's not his biological daughter. Men hook up with younger women ALL the time.
@jodij6280 you are technically right. But cmon damn. She's his woman's daughter. He watched her grow up. Where are his morals, standards, and ethics? My God. Just because you CAN, doesn't always mean you SHOULD!.
@@jodij6280She was not his adopted daughter or step daughter either.
Mia really sucked as a mother to Soon-yi. She got PHYSICAL with her and called this an AFFAIR?!?!? It was a molestation by her partner. She needed to beat the fuq outta Woody and give Soon-yi a hug and tell her I'm so sorry he hurt you!
Woody DID NOT HURT Soon Yi - they've been happily married for many decades now. GET A FREAKING GRIP ON YERSELF.
To be fair we lacked the moral vocabulary back then. Now even kids are mich more sophisticated in their language around consent and abuse.
Correct
They were both terrible. No doubt Woody used that to make himself "the loving parent" and "protector". Both parents make me sick and so does Hollywood!!
Agree with you. He groomed and manipulated that naive young girl then made it aopear that Mia was mentally and emotionally unstable. That man should be in prison
With billions of people in the world to choose for a partner, Woody made it crystal clear what kind of person he is - there's nothing that will change his "legacy" or what he is - 🗑
Can you just accept that their marriage lasted longer than most marriages and they are happy together? Get a FREAKING GRIP.
@@animalsarebeautifulpeople3094 he molested his other daughter when she was very young
Woody Allen has ruined so many lives.
I feel for the family so much and especially for Dylan…I cannot even fathom what she had to go through, and I am disgusted that he’s out there in the world with access to young girls to this day. Sickening. And the claims that he started creeping on her when she was still in diapers…I have no doubt he did.
He did not kniw her as an infant, she was never in this country till she was 7, and he met her when she was 10. She was also not his daughter.
@@Ausgar-yc1yl Dylan was adopted by Mia at two weeks old and subsequently co-adopted by Woody Allen, making him her adoptive father. From her accounts and from the abundant corroborative evidence, I have no doubt about what he did to her.
@@kristaquin I was referring to Soon Yi not Dylan.
@@kristaquin You edited your comment.
@@Ausgar-yc1yl you may want to edit or remove yours since it’s not relevant…I am talking about Dylan.
Am I the only one who thinks the valentines card was not that unhinged given what happened? If my practically husband and father to my kids started doing my adopted child/his stepchild, I’d be so much more unhinged than Mia. That is such an immoral, insane betrayal. It would drive anyone to near insanity. Angry card would be the least of his worries.
He wasn't practically her husband they were married for 12 years i believe
@@bethewalt7385 They were together for 12-13 years but never married. He adopted Dylan and Moses though and had Satchel/Ronan with Mia.
It's unhinged
Caitlinc, I'm with you. The betrayal is so bad. Woody and soon yi are the lowest of the low
@@bethewalt7385They were never married.
The fact that Woody cant actually acknowledge the pain and suffering he has inflicted on his family, the crazy making kind of crap that he did to Mia... it really is a wonder she didnt jump off his roof that night. He talks about all of these crazy things she did as if she was just crazy for no good reason. YOU MADE HER CRAZY WOODY! He is an awful, despicable human being.
Bang on hes a narcissist
Even worse than Weinstein because his victim is younger.
He had no guilt because he is totally self-centered. He manipulates and I think on some level enjoys hurting others emotionally and then gaslighting them.

I don’t think we should base all our assessments of Mia on that confrontation with Soon-Yi just after she found the photos. She was in shock. Yes, she handled it in just about the worst possible way - I completely agree. But people do weird shit in shock.
For example; years ago my mother was diagnosed with a brain tumour the size of a Brussel sprout (she’s perfectly fine now). When my parents told me, I spent the next 20 mins cracking jokes and laughing my arse off like I was filming my own comedy special. I was in shock and acting in just about the most inappropriate, cruel, tactless way a daughter could. But I couldn’t see that at the time. The next day I was mortified at my behaviour and could barely look at mum, because I was so embarrassed and ashamed.
Did I do and say those things in response to that news? Yes, I did. Is that 20 mins or so an accurate representation of me as a daughter, or how much I love my mother, or how terrified I was of this diagnosis? God no!
But if that’s all people knew about me, you could fairly assume I was a psychopath, or hated my mum, or god knows what else.
Do I think Mia is perfect? No, I think she’s a little batty at the best of times - and this was the worst of times. Mia has to live with the fact that she let her daughter down when she needed her most - that’s a heavy penance for a mother.
You also have to remember that this was the early 1990s. Our understanding of grooming and power imbalances has come a long way. The rest of the decade would be spent blaming Monica Lewinsky, 21 year old unpaid intern, for a relationship with most powerful man in the world. I am so pleased that we look back on relationships like Woody and Soon-Yii and see it as that of a groomer and a victim.
Let’s remember who the real enemy here is.
Best comment in this thread.
I've been waiting for this last installment about Soon Yi. So freaking weird. Even though the legal age is 18, i know I was still a child on my 18th birthday, just as I was at 17 yrs 364 days old and underage! Just listening to how Woody Allen rationalizes and downplays his grooming of Soon Yi, doesn't excuse it. He's a spoiled, entitled, fawned over narcissist. Mia sounds like she could have a personality disorder of her own. This was a horrible public fight back in the day. I hope those children are ok today. Roanan has done well.
The legal age of consent is 17.
@@Ausgar-yc1ylThe legal age of consent varies by country and state. And it’s beside the point. The point is, even an “of age” young adult is not mature enough to freely decide to have a relationship with a middle-aged man, let alone a father.
@@Andreamom001 I am aware of that, my husband is an attorney. We are talking about NY and it is 17.
Both he and Mia are Narcissists, a deadly combination. Both of my parents were, I know.
Imo Mia's reaction is why her other kids didn't tell her about Woody's previous creepy behaviour. I think she reacted like most mothers wood. illogically!
the way adoption works for these high profile hollywood artists who feel like their spiritual awakening is through trial-error effort on parenting like some guinea pigs INFURIATES me. these kids were betrayed by the system, all of them. mia was nowhere near mentally or emotionally stable to take care of all those kids and adopted kids NEED stability. instead they got a white saviour who made comments on them being slow.. when soon yi literally had such a drastic change of environment, language, culture etc. she was adapting. i wonder how long it would take mia to move to korea and learn korean and adapt. soon yi was NOT slow, she was just a kid trying her best and appearing as meek as possible as a lesson learnt from her time on the streets not the stick out, to avoid negative attention. she fell victim and became the perfect target for a sick pervert looking for his constant manic pixie girl to save him from his miserable sad little life. i feel sad for the kids only. a disaster was waiting to happen here, it was inevitable
@@betheecommentatorthank YOU for such in-depth, thought-provoking content. i’m a new viewer and im hooked on your vids, binged a lot in one sitting these few days in the background while working 😌you’re brilliant and you obviously put so much work into these, can’t wait for your future vids 💕
We must also remember how Soon Yi was trying to recover from the trauma of her early childhood when also trying to learn to assimilate to a new culture. Who knows the consequences of physical harm she was exposed to, lack of structure & education she had during some of the most important developmental ages. I do not recall hearing about her being in therapy, and she arguably needed it the most. She did/has been doing the best she could with the cards she was dealt. Very sad
What's disgusting.. is that there are people who defend that relationship. Like when you adopt a child you don't look at them as your future spouse. That creepy as heck! I don't care who says what. That's disgusting! And the fact that Mia blamed her own adopted daughter for woody grooming her? Even worse!
Woody did NOT ever adopt Soon Yi.
He never adopted or lived with Mia’s adopted child.
@@Ausgar-yc1yl ok so? That's still ur partners child, gross af
He has his own adopted daughters. I wonder how he is with them?
Soon Yi was adopted by Mia and Andre Previn.
I can only imagine what an emotional wreck you’d be as a mother if you found those photos and that your partner had been having sex with your teenaged daughter along with allegedly sexual abusing you very young daughter. That would seriously mess you up.
I think Mia was highly suspicious of the relationship before she found the photos. She thought her daughter was her competition and she was.
She was NOT his adopted daughter.
@@Ausgar-yc1ylSo this somehow makes it better?? He was still a parental figure
@@Ausgar-yc1ylat the very least, Woody should have viewed her, as his step daughter
@@Lexx1192 What is your problem? I was not defending him, was stating a fact.
She groomed her, plain and simple. Knowing that she didn’t have a real father in her life, and that she grew up in an abusive and malignant home, he preyed on that. She was always looking for a father figure, and wanted his attention, whether it was in a fatherly way, or a pedophile/incestuous way. She would take any attention that she could get. He knew that and used it. This is sick on his part, plain and simple.
Wrong, she DIDhaveher father Andre in her life.
@@Ausgar-yc1ylI think Andre and Mia broke up shortly after the adoption. Not sure there was a lot of bonding there either.
Soon-Yi seems like she was a vulnerable young woman. Woody seems like he took advantage of Soon-Yi.
@@pattyo4703 Andre was in her life for years after his divorce.
@@Ausgar-yc1yl I'm glad to hear that Andre stayed involved, but the Woody & Soon-Yi relationship is still troubling to me.
I think Mia and Andre were both mad at Soon-Yi also, which I don't think is right either.
@@pattyo4703 Woody and Soon Yi is troublesome bit unfortunately not illegal, it crossed all normal boundaries.
Do y’all think Woody left those photos out on purpose for Mia to find? 👀👀 Or was he just careless?
I think it was on purpose. I was thinking that while watching the documentary. In part two of the documentary I believe it was discussed that Mia and woody participated in a three some I would not be surprised if the daughter was involved in one with both her "parents ". I know that's gross but soon yi stated repeatedly that he was not a father figure. We will never know what actually happened but if we are just getting crumbs and it's stomach turning I would hate to know the full story.
@@Pats_Wal_Honestly, I can believe your hypothesis on the threesome thing. Because Mia is moving too weird for me to believe she’s entirely innocent. And Woody definitely did that on purpose to “let her know she’s been replaced”.
I always suspected Woody left those pictures where they'd be discovered. He's a coward, and couldn't man up and tell Mia directly.
I think he knew Mia would go ballistic when she found the photos so defo left them out on purpose. It would make her appear even more unhinged and lessen his responsibility.
@regansmith7786 I definitely agree with that last part about Woody showing Mia she was “replaced”. I’m thinking if he knew she had a key to his apartment, why would he not hide the rest of the pictures? Imo he wanted her to find them
The whole situation is so predatory and the fact that people are on with it is so insane. This is grooming and child abuse at its worst. He is a nasty man
such a small sick man
needed to create drama and buzz to stay relevant
everything he has done has been devalued by his grooming activities
This is stuff I lived through, but didn’t pay much attention to. The insight into this dynamic is crazy. Great job on your work.
AGREED,-&THey're all Psycho-POOR DILLON🤨😡😔😪😪😪😪🤨😡😡😡😡😡😡
This story was always fascinating to so me and I’m so glad she is breaking it down soooo throughly. I’m in my 40’s so I was 12 in 1992 and I def remember all of this being highly covered and ppl acting as if he was totally innocent. I knew as a child he was a very sick person but now I see how complicit Mia was as so many women are unfortunately 😢.
@@Queenofdacastle the depths of his depravity coupled by his resolute justification is what gets me.
I read Mia’s book and found it really engaging and well written. Hind sight is always 20/20. What seems evident, to me, now is that Woody was/is a child predator and groomed the kids from a young age. Soon-Yi is a tragic victim in all this. A place she knows well since infancy. I do not always agree with how Mia handled the situation with Soon-Yi but have no doubt who the predator is. I hope Soon-Yi finds peace after WA is gone from her life.
He didn't know her as an infant, she was not his child. He met Soon Yi was 10 when he met her.
@@Ausgar-yc1yl no one said he did.
She knew victimhood from her mother from infancy. It is clearly stated in the docu-series
He groomed the kids? What kids? To me it's evident that during their custody case she used all the weapons she could. He is almost 90 years old, working for 70 years with women. No person complained about his behaviour. Only his angry partner MIA during the case. Isn't it evident to you?
@@spiritofanu3112 Her mother is Mia.
@@Ausgar-yc1yl ??? I said just that
Mia’s reaction of Soon-Yi being the mistress vs Woody being the creep. Plus people being all technical, at the very least, he is dating his ex girlfriend’s adoptive daughter. Just weird. “Like how did y’all meet?”
Great job, as always, love!
It’s interesting that Soon Yi and Moses both have said that Mia was abusive but Mia’s other children defend her saying that she’s never been abusive and that the other two are lying. Hard to know what the truth of the situation is
Well Soon-Yi and Moses say that Mia was abusive to the adopted kids of color while showering affection on her white/bio kids.
The only children who defend her are her four white bio children (Mathew, Sacha, Fletcher and Ronan), Dylan - who is white, and Daisy - who is Korean.
Mia's black adoptees, Quincy and Isaiah, have never spoken publicly to confirm or deny.
Frankie Mihn - who's Chinese, has never spoken publicly to confirm or deny.
Thaddeus - who was Indian, committed suicide near Mia's house
Lark - who was Korean, died from AIDS in extreme poverty. Mia refused to visit her or call her when she was on her deathbed.
Tam - who was Vietnamese, died on the bathroom floor surrounded by pill bottles. Moses claims it was intentional suic1de, Mia swears that Tam was just confused and accidentally took the wrong pills.
There's no way to be 100% certain what the truth is, but the evidence stacks against Mia
What a trainwreck of a family. I guess I didn't know that Mia wanted to get back together with him even AFTER he'd been caught with Soon-yi. She was making such such such bad decisions back then. I try and remember my feminist roots, namely that many many women go back to an abuser and it takes time for them to leave for good... but it's not like Woody was physically abusive. It appears to be psychologically and emotionally. So many games played. So very thought provoking. I'd love to hear Ronan's side of the story. I know he's said a few things publicly; namely that he loves and believes his sister Dylan and his mom. But he had to have seen all kinds of crap growing up and he plays his cards pretty close to his chest.
If my husband turned out to be a perv, I would NOT treat my teenage daughter like a harlot. Soon Yi had nowhere else to go but back into the open arms of the creep that got her into this whole mess to begin with. These poor kids.
Woody was never married to Mia.
@@Ausgar-yc1yl allow me to rephrase... If my boyfriend was of the character to take inappropriate photos of teenage girls, I would not take it out on my insecure daughter who has never even had a boyfriend.
@@robinmarie8213 Why are you coming after me whan all I did was state a fact?
@@Ausgar-yc1yl sorry. I meant no offense.
@@robinmarie8213 No problem.
Woody abused Soon Yi. But rather than offering support and empathy to her CHILD, Mia physically abused her. There was something very wrong in that family.
I can’t help wondering what might have happened if Mia had treated her daughter with concern and love rather than jealousy and violence. Maybe Soon Yi could have gotten therapy and separated from Woody rather than having only him to turn to.
So sad. Soon Yi had no one.
Soon Yi was an adult at the time. Idk how else you deal with a 19 year old too stupid to understand that she has crossed a major line. That is not to say that Woody didn’t manipulate her but by all accounts, she wasn’t physically forced. She simply chose to violate family bonds possibly to obtain security emotional and financial security for herself. Mia must have wondered if maybe it was a failure in discipline. And honestly, if your adult sister did this to you, wouldn’t you explode? Key word, ADULT.
@@jakestroll6518 Mia says Woody abused Soon Yi when she was a child, so she doesn’t believe Soon Yi was an adult when the relationship began.
If you ever had a child grow up, you would know parents don’t see their young (legally) adults as fully adult. They are still often quite child-like and clearly not fully mature. I can’t imagine myself blaming my 19y/o for something a fully grown adult was also involved in.
I’ve been cheated on. I’ve had my adult child do something to betray me. I wasn’t enraged at my child, I was hurt, confused, and worried. I want him to get help. I don’t want to yell at him or hit him.
If Mia believed her adult romantic partner groomed and abused her child, I can’t understand her blaming the child let alone attacking the child and throwing her out of the house.
@@jakestroll6518if there’s any truth to Soon Yi’s own testimony, she really didn’t like Mia nor did she think of her as a mother.
💯 But Saint Mia was cool with never speaking to her daughter again after she threw her out of the house. Is that what you do to your child especially after Mia has droned on & on about how Soon Yi was learning impaired and had the emotional capacity of a 12 year old??
Yes, but, hey...it's home!
Either Woody or Soon-Yi left those photos on display deliberately.
YES.
I believe Soon Yi did it
The only people I feel bad for are the kids since the kids are deeply affected by their parents or parents’ decisions. It's hard for me to feel bad for both Woody and Mia as it’s pretty obvious they didn't have the desire or responsibility to take care of their children. I don't know which celebrity family is more dysfunctional: The Farrow-Allens, the Jacksons, the Phillips, the Spears, the DeBarges, the Gosselins, the Kardashians, the O’Neals(Ryan for those of who are wondering which O’Neal I’m talking about) the Smiths, the Duggars, the Barrymores, or the Carters(Nick Carter specifically).
They all from those luciferian families. Pedo-wood initiations . Smh the ishhh some ppl do for money sell they own kids. Even Brittney spears now watch this year she will be "drowned" in a bath tub too. And watch youtube take down my comment
There was nothing dysfunctional or accusatory in the least concerning Mia and her motherhood toward her children. Nobody prior to the Woody/Soon-Yi situation has had one negative thing to say about her parenting skills and love for her children.
@@reneesantiago6496didn’t multiple of her children die young + due to addiction? I always felt she did treat the adopted kids differently…
Lots of narcissism, enmeshment, covert/emotional incest, and triangulation in all of those dynamics listed. 👀
What Phillips? John Phillips' family from the Mamas and the Papas?
That interview about dating Soon-Yi and he "takes full accountability" sounds like a man that knows he has done wrong and is getting away with it.
And Mia so shocked when he started going after her daughters in their teens when he has a long track record of this. Tigers strips dont change as they get older, they just start hunting in smaller areas.
She participated in the relationship that he had with the other young 16/17 yr old girl and that’s just what we know about, how many other young girls did they tag team?
WHHHHAT?????????? Issue a joint statement?????? Thia guy is SICK AF!!!!! 💀💀💀💀💀💀
Woody found his ideal victim in Soon-yi. He had all of the power.
I think he left those pictures out, knowing Soon-yi would then be the only one there to bare the brunt of her mother's anger. No doubt he groomed her, but he waited until she was older to place those photos. I think he hoped that in doing that, that Soon-yi would not be viewed as a victim. Even though she ABSOLUTELY is a victim.
He preyed on his wife's daughter. He knew that it would break the family apart. He got inside soon-yi's head. 'Gave her confidence' (made her dependant on him, as she was so young and vulnerable). Made sure to isolate her from her own mother. Now he feels like he's won the ultimate battle.
Men like him, want children whom they can train into their perfect little Slave. It's sick. This man is calculated. I think he genuinely thinks that people will view Soon-Yi as somehow being the villain, for 'stealing her mother's man'. Which is not at all what any sane person is thinking.
Soon-yi will believe that she had the power because facing the reality would tear her world apart. He's all she's known for so long.
Very intelligent analysis, and I wholeheartedly agree!
Woody was never married to Mia.
@@Ausgar-yc1yl Bro, you commented like 20 times on my other post, on my other video.
i feel like you are Woody Allen himself, or Soon-yi because no one else defending Allen as much as you are. Chill tf out.
Married or not. It is WRONG. Soon-Yi is a victim. Woody Allen is a grooming sex offender and everyone can see it but you, and him.
I don't think Mia catches as much heat as she deserves for the way she handled this. Woody is despicable make no mistake, but it breaks my heart how Mia treated her daughter
Agree but I think most women of her generation would have reacted the same way. There was so much more slut shaming and internalized misogyny back then. It would taken a very evolved and healed woman of that time - to side with her teen daughter.
I mean just look at how Britney Spears was publicly shamed for her “overt” sexuality - and that was already in the 2000s. It’s only until now in 2023 that most of us see her as a victim of that industry.
The daughter is NOT a reliable narrator and of the over 20 kids who’ve been fostered or adopted by Mia, only one co-signs the traitor daughter and it’s been reliably reported he’s had his life subsidised byWoody Allen. Kids from bad backgrounds who are adopted after age 7 are often permanently wounded. She hates her prostitute mother and is unable to form attachments to a mother figure. Everything the adopted mother does will be evil in her eyes. Running off with her adopted mothers partner might well be a way to get back at her real mother who neglected her while having sex with random men for money .
@@jakestroll6518 Wow, very interesting take! Never thought of it like that. You might be on to something.
I was very very surprised at her reaction. It speaks volumes about their relationship. It seems there were definitely some shady things going on with Mia and her adopted children..
Mia allegdly cheated on woody with frank sinatra and it rumored thay their son ronan is actually franks son and not woodys
Yasss! Part 4 wooo! Let's go! These videos are like books! I swear i have so much respect for the time and effort you're putting in. The writing is so well done too! But this whole story is WILD to me! The things the human mind will justify is much more a lesson to ourselves than one on the Farrows and Woody.
Yes!!! Part 4 here we come! Thanks for watching!
Thank YOU! Kepp doing you! We love it! And also, thank you lol! I'm trying to get my mom hooked now. The Jada and Will videos I think will get her, lol!@@betheecommentator
I cannot even stand to look at woody Allen much less watch one of his movies. He certainly did groom Mia’s daughter. It is horrific. I understand her pain. He should be in jail.
And woody Allen sees nothing wrong with what he did. No matter how many ways he justifies this he is wrong, he is a sick man. I do believe he started having a relationship with his step daughter when she was underage.
I’ve never watched one of his movies and never will. He’s sick and repulsive.
She was NOT his step daughter and he has NO step children.
@@Ausgar-yc1yl I get that he and Mia were not married. But he was in a relationship with Mia for many years.
He really act like he left her for some random younger woman! Nah, you left her and married her DAUGHTER!! That's another level of betrayal!
Woody Allen is disgusting. He has a movie, he wrote and starred in, about having a relationship with a teenage girl. Merial Hemingway’s account, of her relationship with Allen, is very suspicious. I don’t understand why anyone would defend him.
Is he joking when hes talking about the Valentine that she sent him? That was actually child's play compared to what I would have done to him if I found photos of my daughter spread Eagle as she mentioned with my husband!
Woody was not her hus, they were never married.
@@Ausgar-yc1yldoesn’t make it better
@@pinkdollangel Never said it did, just stating a fact.
The valentine was real. It was shown on 60 minutes. It wasn't threatening to Woody. It showed the family with skewers through their heart.
Your documentaries feel like 15 mins when they are at least an hour each because they are SOOOO GOOD!!👍 In most documentaries you will find the same superficial information. In yours the information goes DEEP! Thank you! 🥰
Wow, someone else made that very same comment about this seeming like "15 minutes."
Woody has to be one of the most SELFISH individuals. He gave Soon-Yi not even a moments thought he said. Only when she could fulfill something for him did he care to acknowledge her.
Also asking her to pose for those photos, leaving them out. He never gave a thought to her place in the situation.
I remember hearing my dad say Mia was the 1990s equivalent of unhinged. Honestly, I was like 7 or 8 so I never cared at the time but knowing all of this. I get it, this whole situation reads like a bad soap opera.
Mia was admittedly abusive. Woody was (is) manipulative and felt he got away with it all. Soon-Yi was clearly groomed and this is nothing about her intelligence just an older man using his fully formed brain to get what he wanted from a younger woman.
I feel so horrible for those children. I know they are adults now, but to live with all of that.
Absolutely 🎯🎯🎯
They both come across as toxic. I can't believe she was actually open to getting back together with him! It makes all her actions look like those of a scorned woman rather than an outraged mother.
I have never understood his success and his movies represent his unsettled behaviour. A way to justified his unjustified life.
I was about 10 or 11 and in NY when the story broke. Everyone went WILD! I was a kid, so I didn’t understand the details, but I remember my uncle being so upset once when the news was talking about it. I asked him what happened, and he said that “the man” had cheated on his wife. I think he tried to keep it as simple and clean for me since I was a child. He then went on to say some choice words about WA. I still didn’t really get it, but I remember replying, “That’s disgusting.” Now looking back at the whole story, I don’t know how this man avoided jail time. Oh wait, he’s famous with money. It still gives me the creeps that they’re married with children.
He did not cheat on his wife, he didn't have a wife
@@Ausgar-yc1yl It resembled a common-law marriage though.
@@hollyjolly2066 NO it didn't. They never lived together, common law you must live together, and there is no common law in NY.
@@Ausgar-yc1yl "Resembled" is the key word there.
@@hollyjolly2066 NO it did NOT resemble, they did not live together, they be common law you must live together .
From his interviews - it almost seems like he’s quite dumb? Funny how abusers play dumb when confronted w their obvious crimes.
Playing dumb is right up there with playing the victim for creeps like this.
developmentally challenged in emotional intelligence it seems, a true cold blooded predator
@@DragicaOfficialtruly seems like it! There is a very disturbing coldness about him.
I think both Mia and Woody are both very questionable people. Woody swooping in to groom a young girl and his predilection for young girls in general. Mia being a very dysfunctional, needy woman and I don't believe the charitable act. I think it's very possible she could have abused some of her adopted children, if they didn't measure up. Truly the children are the victims of these two.
There’s absolutely no evidence or testimony from those closest to the family or the children themselves that causes us to doubt Mia and her love for those kids. If she was abusing them it WOULD have leaked out.
@@reneesantiago6496yeah I agree. I wouldn’t go as far as to call her an abuser or predator. I do think she’s emotionally immature and has narcissistic tendencies. I also think she lacks some self awareness, and understanding of child development, so I don’t think she’s aware of how abusive her parenting style could be.
I think a lot of young / unprepared parents, traumatized parents, emotionally unavailable parents fall into this category.
@@__rm307 Soon-Yi and Moses are NOT reliable narrators considering that both have had their lives significantly subsidised by Woody. In Soon-Yis case, she’s never even held a job because her wealthy father figure became her sugar daddy husband. Mia has fostered or adopted over 20 kids and only the 2 who made bank from Woody Allen make those parenting claims.
@@reneesantiago6496with all due respect, Moses gave interviews where he sided with Woody. He’s a creep, but to say there is no evidence is just ignorance or lying.
@@reneesantiago6496not necessarily, abuse comes in many forms, neither are blameless. But I appreciate your perspective.
We obviously don’t know what happens behind closed doors, but hearing about Mia’s reaction to the photos and coming at Soon Yi aggressively tells me she knew something was up. Probably not at all this extreme but she must have had suspicions. Maybe she had previously tried bring it up beforehand, but the photos were just the tipping point of so much anger Mia had against Woody.
Also - it is still so wild to me that after all the women Woody had been with beforehand, he’s STILL married to Soon Yi, and they have 2 adopted children. Assuming he’s never cheated, it is wild that this is the partner he stuck by. The most horrifying relationship he could be in, and the fact that she has stayed by his side even after mountains of accusations against him. More than just love keeps them together, and I don’t even know what that can be.
I hope those children are safe from him
My guess it Soon Yi is the only person in the permissive liberal environment he lives in that actually tried to keep him in check.
I agree. Mia knew her daughter was her competition and Mia and Woody were not sexually involved for years before this happened.
Grooming
I think he knows that he has to stay with Soon Yi or he’d be confirming Mia’s accusations. He has to maintain the facade that he and Soon Yi are in love with each other. But he loves no one. Soon Yi is harder to read. But all I can really say for certain with Soon Yi is she’s got some MAJOR daddy issues. The only people at this point I’m worried for are their adopted children. Soon Yi is a fool if she thinks history won’t repeat itself. And the adopted kids a both cute little Asian girls just like she once was. They’re woodys type. She must have a lot of trust in him to adopt those children… that is some other disturbing shit is going on which is why they wanted the kids. Either way I agree that love is not what keeps them together…
Woody Allen should be in prison. He attempted to normalize this behaviour in his film Manhattan. In his mind, other people exist only for his pleasure, especially little girls.
stop it that’s so creepy i just checked ur channel to see if there was an update to this series and there wasn’t ! now 5 mins later !!! here we are !!!! thank you
Thanks for watching!
having watched it and taken it all in; i’m stunned at how emotionally mature moses was for his age. his letter was devastating and so right in every aspect. i feel so bad for those kids.
i think it’s important for us to see mia as a victim and a perpetrator/enabler. i believe woody abused her psychologically, and she was not mentally stable, especially during this time (which is to be understood tbh, i think woody got off lightly considering what most mothers would do). but her reaction to the relationship, although somewhat understandable, was just wrong and should not have happened.
soon yi was and is a victim, not some lolita seductress. what soon yi knows could destroy him, more than he already has destroyed himself, i’m sure. he’s a misogynist creep and orson welles was 100% correct about him.
I think Mia should have hugged her daughter and told her this was not her fault😢 she had been abused by every parental figure in her life who should have protected her. I think Woody Allen grooming this young girl is discusting.
Both Mia and Woody are freaks.
Soon yi doesn't see what happened to her.
She was desperate to be loved.
These are some of the best documentaries I’ve ever seen! Great work once again
Mia is CLEARLY not a super mom. Finding out your boyfriend has groomed your adoptive daughter and your reaction is to scream att the daughter "What have you done?!" and throw her out. She could not have pushed her into his arms more if she had physically forced her. He is a pedo creep, very obvious fact, but she does not have all her horses in the stable... not even close. Allowing a child to dress like that, knowing what she knew. Soon-Yi had been moved from her home country, she only had Mia and Woody and both failed her. It is a sad story.
After a while when your child is 18 you have no say over what they wear and her reaction was completely normal to me, how is she supposed to be civilized when she is in shock? Which by the way I dont understand how she was shocked, it was so clear they were sleeping together from everything the alone time in her room, going to games together, NYC together every weekend, she had a crush on him, dressing provocatively...maybe Mia just couldnt believe it.
You have done a wonderful job on this series. Very well done.
I'll honesty watch anything you create. I get so captured in it
Thank you so much for making these videos! They are top quality! You definitely have a talent for it😀
Thanks for watching!
Literally this line:
*”oh, that’s childish you make a movie where your heart leads you you don’t affect real peoples lives you don’t hurt people”*
That man was on point!!
Woody is a sick individual. What's frightening is that he and Soon-Yi adopted 2 kids, girls.
That's what I was thinking...
Hopefully they were not abused in a repeating cycle
I feel like Mia knew Woody was a predator and preying on her kids. The pics only angered her b/c it was undeniable proof. Plus, it meant Woody didn’t want her anymore. Hence her anger towards her oldest daughter.
Woody knew and knows what he did was wrong. Hence why he tried to get Mia to help him.
It’s even creepier that him and Soon-Yi adopted daughters 😳
And were good friends with Weinstein and his crew …it’s scary. Maybe she…was also a predator…
I have no idea why, but I never liked the guy when watching his movies. Then this came out. I was like: Well, there you have it...
I'm so impressed with these two episodes - you've done an amazing job compiling all this information. I'm curious about the two adopted daughters he has with Soon-Yi, and hope you cover that as well in the next episode. Again, great videos 😊
Why are you curious? Can't you just leave them alone? WHY ARE YOU CURIOUS ABOUT their daughters?????
@@patricedecourcy4505 obviously your curious about THEM, otherwise you wouldn't have watched this episode. In addition, you're reading all the comments so your curiosity is extremely peaked...enjoy the next episode
@@sleeplessannie I actually didn't watch it. I know his movies, I know her movies. I'm more intersted in reading comments to see how people love to judge others than to watch this video. Still - why are you so curious about his and his wife children?
Listening to WA I'm horrified. What he did to Soon-Yi is so wrong and he has no conscious.
He really is a classic predator. He has used his movies to groom the world into thinking he is just a harmless bumbling idiot when really he is a master manipulator. The way he is reframing everything is truly wicked. His excuses actually implicate him even more, saying Soon-Yi just needed someone to notice her and "love" her but frame it as the only way to do that is to have sex with her is quite simply ludicrous and offensive. He could have been there for her as a father, or at least as a father figure, shown interest in her as a human being and not a sexual exploit. The fact is he was physically present and financially their father figure but he had ZERO interest in any of them until there was something he could get out of it. Same with Dylan. This is where Mia's behavior comes in, Mia is also manipulative and contradicting herself A LOT. Her naivety and paranoia is a very odd and concerning mix. Woody's general behavior was suspect at best and really warranted serious action and she really did not protect her children. I think in Mia Woody saw an easily manipulatable victim, and be started on her way before he saw anything he wanted from the children.
I'm sure it was a bit chaotic for Mia to have so many children in one household. But, it's not an excuse for Woody Allen for what he did.
Its not surprising that Charlie Rose was defending Woody considering he himself had several allegations that came to light about how he treated women 🙄
I absolutely love your presentation. It's obvious that you do your research! I remember all of this when it happened but keep finding out things I never knew before this series.
Your voice is soothing and your articulation is perfect.
Thank you for your work, its very appreciated.
He has No emotions or feelings at all and took advantage of his stepdaughter
She was NOT his step daughter.
I am new here, which is why I am commenting on old videos, but I have to say I am blown away by the level of detail in these videos. Your work is impeccable. As an avid documentary watcher, I can confidently say these are some of the best I have seen. I often feel guilty enjoying this for free - you truly deserve more. I wish you all the best.❤❤❤❤
@@barenoks4387 oh wow, thank you so much! Your feedback and compliments mean so much and I am so glad you enjoy my content and happy that you’re here! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Mia is far from being a good mother. The kid was groomed under her nose and instead of giving her space and showing she was always welcomed in her motherly arms, she shouted "what have you done". If I was Mia I'd be asking myself was had I done and hug my daughter tightly, inquiring about severity of the abuse. If the daughter was groomed to love him, shouting and alienating her, only pushed her further away, making her forever dependent on the abuser. "So take her and go away" - bravo Mia. "What did you do to her and mine's relationship" - excellent mother. It should be more "what have you done to her? I'll always love her and she and I are the victims of you but she didn't do anything against me because she was groomed". The way she talks about her explains everything. I'm so sorry for Soon-Yi. As a kid she was let down by everybody, and her mother was suffering only because she lost her man, not because her daughter was violated. Good priorities. I wouldn't cry a day over this weirdo but wait in pain for my daughter to come back when she was ready and help her the moment she asked. She really mourn over her relationship with a man who abused her kids, not the child herself. 47:55 says it all.
I always found that shocking as well- “what have you done?” And her subsequent treatment of her so called “beloved daughter.” She treated her much more like a rival than a daughter who had been groomed by a pedophile. Woody is disgusting, but Mia’s priorities were totally effed. Didn’t she stay with him for months after too?
@@clairefisher3132 exactly. The comment about her treating her daughter as a rival sums it all up
That's so easy to say when it's not you. Imagine the complete mess your head would be in, the lifestyle, and most importantly the times
Excellent series! Can’t wait for part 4!
@@bereal6590I hate hate hate when people say this. Not everyone victim blames their daughter for being sexually abused by their own father and gets jealous when stressed. What is wrong with you to try and be understanding of victim blaming a child?
Told the story great. Really sad that the family suffered so much pain. Dysfunction Incest, betrayal, what a messy childhood for all these syblings.
Finally made it to the end and the cops never came!?!! It’s so crazy that he was able to get away with all of this unscathed.
This was a great video and I look forward to the next one!
i feel bad for these poor children that had to grow up with these two disturbed parents... oh boy...
what a very well made documentary!
VERY well done, both credible and persuasive.. Woody had no idea how out of line his behavior was....he was crippled by his self-absorption and self-serving obsessions, and Mia had no idea WHO Woody really was. Tragic.
Girl, when I tell you I’ve been waitingggg for this to drop. You’re a very compelling story teller, thank you! 🤍
Awww thank you!
Thank you so much for your hard work! ❤
Much, much appreciated! 💙
I so can't wait for the next part. Your videos are incredible!

Great video as usual! More info than I’ve seen elsewhere
Omg yay!!! Thanks BE! Hope you're doing amazing! ❤❤❤❤

You cannot have an 'affair' with your daughter, it is abusive, always!😢
She was NOT his daughter.
This is a really good and insightful video. I really enjoyed it keep up the good work
Wonderful! I want to keep going.....I followed every detail at the time but I love your objective blending of two very conflicting points of view.. I'm ready for the next one. Very well done.!
Woody with that Valentine: “I got scared!”
Please! A different woman wouldn’t done that to YOU instead and no one would blame her rofl😭😂
Well done.
Thank you so much!
Happy Halloween, BE!
Ironically, Woody Allen is as creepy as The Boogeyman.
🤣
Happy Halloween!! 👻
Your documentaries are fantastic. Great job, you deserve so much success 👍
You give such great Documenteries Be.TC.
Thank you for posting.
It seems when you have money.....anything is permissible. How sad
Exactly! Because theres no way regular Joe off the curb would do this and not at the very least be labelled a sex offender forever. At least.
Another masterpiece thank youuuu 💋🧡
I've been waiting for this! So excited to watch! ❤
This is a great video done by you, I'm vey impressed thank you
“I...I...I never thought about it.” We know. That’s the problem.
No doubt Woody Allen is sick, but Mia farrow is also sick. She creates atmospheres where she has complete control. She finds men she can dominate. The sicker, the better. Same goes for kids. Upon discovering the naked pics, Mia’s anger towards Soon Yi isn’t just because she’s hurt, but because she’s losing a modicum of control. This is standard with narcissists. They’re both pretty gross characters, though I find Mia more frightening as her behavior is both covert and common. I admit I have personal bias.
I don’t kno how you can say this. I had the worse mum. Mia is no where near as bad. Woody made her mad at the point he SA her daughter. He’s the sick one. I don’t kno where u get this from. I don’t blame Mia she was hurting
@@kirstenwright3755 different experiences. None of us know for certain.
Absolutely excellent series. Thank you for this!
Thanks again Be for the honest and in-depth review! This situation is so nuanced and complicated that it’s impossible to look at critically without all the facts. It was so shrouded in secrecy and Hollywood interference that, at the time, you couldn’t believe anything that was reported. The aftermath of these events on all those involved is still unfolding and your delicacy in tone and approach is much appreciated by this viewer. Looking forward to the next one!
chile that special on MAX is a rough watch and its still wild to me how Hollywood still backs him up
Thank you again! So horrific
Keep it up BEE 🐝 your doing it girl!! So proud to be one of the first to find you and watch you grow. It’s really cool to watch!!
