Meh - that's her right though I'm sure Woody isn't losing sleep - the cast of his next film, is stellar, his casts almost always are. I mean did Woody Allen ever lose a casting choice? On the other hand he had a rough year - Wonder Wheel wasn't great, but is better than the reception it got unfortunately. I like Greta but.......no biggie. Maybe she should go back and take herself out of The Humbling. Sort of kidding, she was perfectly adequate

Even thought I will continue to watch his movies (I really like them, even the low-tiers, and no one can really know what happened to poor Dylan), I think it is a very respectable thing to do and a better statement then your average Hollywood person who just avoids the question.

Please can someone tell me what she's discovered in between the time she filmed with him to now? She obviously knew of the allegations back in 2011, the court case, everyone did. But it's only now she's publicly regretting her decision, now she's at the top of the tree. I doubt Allen will be bothered anyway - it's not like she added anything to that film. Looking forward to reading which charity she donates her To Rome with Love paycheck to.

Looking forward to reading which charity she donates her To Rome with Love paycheck to. it's because of the #me too movement. She probably doesn't want to look like a hypocrite so better to put it out there. People are dragging Justin Timberlake on twitter. By the way, armie hammer did the same thing and apologized to casey affleck. Cause he bashed casey and brought up unfair treatment. Remember, armie was in birth of nation.

If I remember correctly almost all of the actors working for Woody get paid scale... so yeah, I wouldn't either if I were a name.

She actually did avoid the question at the Golden Globes, and faced an insanely unnecessary amount of backlash. That's the only reason she's committed to a stance on the matter now.

I have a feeling she wouldn't be saying that if she was not having so much attention right now, she was asked the same question at the globes and she did what in my country is knows as "cantinflear", lel, she just started saying a bunch of things but never answered the question, so if Gerwig was really thinking a lot about it, it might be from that night to the next one ( the day of the NBR event ) otherwise she would've been prepared for those questions the night of the globes ( by now the Farrow article feels like it saw the light years ago ) but whatever we all change from time to time, at least she didn't said she will boycott him a la Jada Pinkett Smith did with the oscars.

Greta doesn't want someone going, oh, I can't vote for someone who condones woody's behavior. When you are dealing with peer system, sometimes it is not about how good you are but if you pissed of the person or not.

Mira Sorvino Says She'll Never Work with Woody Allen Again in Open Apology to Dylan Farrowpeople.com/movies/mira-sorvino-will-never-work-with-woody-allen-again/No to sound too mean but Mira hasn't been relevant in years . It's been ages since she has received good roles. I highly doubt Woody Allen would lose sleep over it. He probably doesn't even remember who she is anymore.

Even Ashley Judd managed to have a slightly better career than Sorvino.

No, I don't think he's solely responsible... but he obviously made a pretty big negative impact on her career.

Angelina Jolie is a special case. She didn't need Weinstein. She was bound to be a star and her personal life fascinated everyone. Ashley Judd's career could have been better than it was. She lucked out in getting those films with Morgan Freeman to get some commercial success. But I do believe actresses like Annabella Sciorra and Mira Sorvino's careers suffered because of Weinstein. I mean, we have Peter Jackson on record saying that Weinstein told him that Sorvino and Judd were a nightmare to work with and not to hire them. Imagine Weinstein doing that more than once in Sorvino's career.

Sad this game of cultural trending one-upmanship.......give back your Oscar that he won for you.
Anybody else bothered, by the tenants of time's up :
If a person who has been harassed tells you about it, believe them. (Tenant #2)
Yup. Believe them, don't ask for proof. Ever.
Even better below (by better, I mean worse) - check out that last line.
Scared yet comrade?
Farrow and her brother Ronan – the biological son of Allen and Mia Farrow – have both been vocal critics of Allen over the past few years (Ronan Farrow also helped break the Harvey Weinstein scandal). After this year's Golden Globes, Dylan Farrow posted several tweets in which she spoke about what has, and hasn't, changed since her 2014 op-ed, and how she hoped the Time's Up movement would affect Allen. "No predator should be spared by virtue of their 'talent' or 'creativity' or 'genius,'" she said. "No rock should be left unturned. The principles of the movement need to be applied consistently and without exemption."

She even said that she chose to take some time off to go back to school , do more charity work and write her memoirs. She said something ala " I love acting but I love helping people in need even more". She still managed to have a pretty solid career even without Pigstein's help. ps : when you said about Jolie that she was bound to be a star ...you mean because she was/is Jon Voight's daughter ? Doesn't Mira Sorvino have a famous father as well ? Maybe not as famous as Voight but still...

It used to be a running joke how ambitious that girl was in the 90s! No, not because of Jon Voight. lol. I saw Angelina Jolie in a George Wallace biopic and said that girl is going to be a star. She just has that IT factor. And again, she was good at using her personal life to promote herself. People were fascinated by her image and she won an Oscar without Harvey. Mira Sorvino wasn't that lucky.

That being said , I still find the whole Weinstein/LORD OF THE RINGS thing pretty disgusting.

Mira Sorvino uses a plural. Have there been any other allegations that Allen molested young girls? I've only heard about Dylan, which was made after Allen left Farrow for Soon Yi and that allegedly happened during a supervised visit.

They've nothing to lose, have they?

The Lord of the Rings situation is bad enough on its own. Those were huge movies.
