Mia Farrow recently expressed her understanding for actors who choose to collaborate with Woody Allen, despite her long-standing accusations of sexual abuse against him.

During an interview on 'CBS Sunday Morning,' Farrow emphasized that she can separate her professional experiences with Allen from their personal issues, including his marriage to her adopted daughter, Soon-Yi Previn.

The allegations against Allen resurfaced prominently in 2014 when he was honored at the Golden Globes, igniting public discussion and backlash.

Farrow's comments are particularly significant given her tumultuous history with Allen, which includes allegations made by her daughter, Dylan Farrow, who claimed he molested her at the age of seven.

Despite the ongoing controversy, Woody Allen, now 88, has directed 33 films and won four Oscars, continuing his prolific career.

Public opinion remains divided, with figures like Bill Maher criticizing the boycotting of Allen, while actors such as Javier Bardem defend him, citing the lack of legal conviction.

In contrast, several actors who previously worked with Allen, including Kate Winslet and Rebecca Hall, have expressed regret and pledged not to collaborate with him again.

Allen has maintained his innocence, describing the allegations as 'preposterous' and expressing frustration over their persistence.

Ronan Farrow, their son, has voiced concern that collaborations with Allen hurt his sister Dylan, highlighting the emotional complexities surrounding the issue.

Allen has characterized Hollywood's distancing from him as a misguided persecution of an innocent person, further complicating the industry's response to the allegations.

Farrow's remarks come amidst a divided industry, where some actors, like Diane Keaton and Alec Baldwin, support Allen, while others, including Natalie Portman, choose to distance themselves.

The allegations against Allen first emerged during a custody battle in the early 1990s, with a judge deeming his behavior towards Dylan 'grossly inappropriate' but not proven as sexual abuse.
