Allen v Farrow
This documentary has been dominating social media chat since its recent debut. The four-part series explores the nearly 30-year-old allegations of child abuse against director Woody Allen by then seven-year-old Dylan Farrow, Allen’s daughter with his ex-wife Mia Farrow.
The series also delves into their custody battle, and the emergence of Allen’s relationship with Farrow’s daughter Soon-Yi, and explores the unconventional family’s life in detail in the aftermath of these shocking revelations.
The first episode debuted in the United States on 14 March 2021, and came express to Showmax the following day. All subsequent episodes will land express from the US on Showmax.
RogerEbert.com says that Allen v Farrow is “Another major addition to the slowly evolving public conscience about the honest behaviors of our celebrated creators.”
