Please name that 'spokesman'. You can't. Because @DaveCBenoit and @KhadeejaSafdar 'forgot' to name the 'spokesman'. And won't respond to questions. Try for yourself if you like. No 'Woody spokesman' has come to the fore to confirm the WJS's unverifiable claim. Don't tell me you're gullible.

Remaining factual and honoring verifiable facts is indeed a 'strong look'. As opposed to being uncritical, gullible, and susceptible to audience manipulation. I'm sure we agree on that.

You keep claiming some imagined 'friendship' for which no material, verifiable evidence exists; while the available evidence points to the absence of any such 'friendship'. You *do* know that everyone and their sister is trying to smear disliked people by associating them with Epstein, don't you?

Of course, it could be a matter of pure chance that a well-known paparazzo-for-hire happens to have set up a 'burst shot' for no particular reason along the route of Woody's and Soon-Yi's daily stroll to their restaurant, while a famous, avid photo collector just happened to have casually walked by.

Else Verwoerd (@elseverwoerd.bsky.social) reply parent
If this only known photo with Epstein and Allen in the same frame, this 'burst shot' taken by a hired paparazzo *proves anything*, it is that Epstein could not get a photo of him and Allen in any other way. So far for their 'friendship' and 'frequent contacts'.

That Box Office Mojo link can show you how many, many US-made movies have been released to Russian theaters post-invasion in Ukraine. Rendering any idea of a 'cultural boycott' absurd, and blame put on Woody Allen for 'breaking' it (by having an online talk with movie aficionados) hypocritical.
Else Verwoerd (@elseverwoerd.bsky.social) reply parent
The only photo with Epstein and Allen in the same frame has them walking 20 feet apart without any visible contact. It was taken by a professional, paparazzo Elder Ordonez, who claims copyright. As Epstein is constantly looking Ordonez in the eye, it is likely that Epstein hired him.

Participating in that Moscow Film event was unfortunate, particularly in the sense of bad publicity. Although I have never heard of a 'cultural boycott' going on concerning Russia, and LOTS of USA movies have been released in Russia in 2023-2024-2025. No one complained about that, did they.

Your understanding is mistaken. I am not a Woody Allen fan, let alone a 'big' Woody Allen fan. As far as I can see, Woody Allen never 'fucked up things' in his private life. All his exes, his wife, and both of their daughters, love him; one known deceiver (M.F.) being the sole exception.

It is a joke about statutory rape. The joke takes nothing away from the fact that 'Tracy' is above age, that there is nothing illegal about their relationship, and that 'Ike' is not a rapist of any kind.

You may like to 'think' that 'Ike' is a statutory rapist. Other people 'think' the Moon is made of green cheese. It doesn't make your, or these people's, thoughts true. In fact, they are false. 'Ike' is not presented as a rapist, as he is not a rapist. A big moral thing is to acknowledge facts.

Else Verwoerd (@elseverwoerd.bsky.social) reply parent
This photo proves Epstein and Allen were not 'friends' or 'frequent contacts'. Apparently, the only way Epstein could get a photo of him and Allen in the same frame, was to hire a paparazzo (Elder Ordonez) and have himself photographed walking 20 feet ahead of Woody on a NY pavement. Friends, eh?

But I can expect people with a working brain to check the facts, and respect them. FACT 1: Soon-Yi PREVIN is an adoptive daughter of André PREVIN, as her name indicates to anyone with a working brain. She was never *any* kind of 'daughter' to Woody Allen. FACT 2: you are a liar. Willfully or not.

Woody Allen performed as an actor in 50 movies in the course of 50 years. Lastly at the age of 80 in his tv series 'Crisis in Six Scenes' (2016). Since then, he has directed four movies, that have been released to 40 countries across 4 continents. He is among the most productive US moviemakers.

Allen spent a lifetime writing & directing 50 movies in the course of 60 years. They include lots of romances with all kinds of women, young and (mostly) older. There are ZERO 'young girls' in those 50 movies. There's ONE above-age teenager in 50 movies. Maybe YOU are 'obsessed with young girls'?

Indeed, "running through all of the boxes is an insistent, vivid obsession with young women & girls"; and that is apparently what Richard Morgan did. The NYT readership did not like the product of Morgan's obsession with young women and girls. In fact, they called it 'dishonest' and explained why.

Woody Allen is not so stupid as to waste his time by giving this idiotic 'letter' free publicity. Any 'authenticity' is to be established by the NY Times or objective expertise; instead the NY Times *refuses* to disclose the source/document. It's VERY clear that 17 yo 'Tracy' is based on 'Stacey'.
